Serendipity
is defined as “the lucky
tendency to find interesting or valuable things by chance.” At TOPS
Malibu
, we believe in this fanciful idea and infuse it into every one of our
products. Serendipity is found in the simple joy of unraveling a
Surprize Ball and discovering treasures beneath each layer. It is
inspired in the unexpected thrill of sparklers, the pop and shower of
confetti, or the personal touch of a gift set at your table. A TOPS
Malibu
creation should spark conversation, create surprise, awaken
creativity, and allow for a dose of silliness in a serious world. They
are that extra ingredient that lights up the moment!
TOPS has been called upon to create party favors
for The Academy Awards, The Grammies, DreamWorks, Disney and
Imagine Entertainment. Our
products are known for inciting energy at special events and adding to
an atmosphere that contributes to lively and memorable conversation.
Our products have sold in stores such as
Harrods of London, Henri Bendel and Nieman Marcus. We are in
specialty stores and fun boutiques worldwide.
Where ever you come across our products – online, in your
favorite store, or through a gift – we invite you find your
serendipity at TOPS
Malibu
again and again.
About
Judy Walker
As I
child I was fascinated by the presents my father brought home to me
from his travels. Once he brought me some Russian dolls that fit
neatly inside each other, and I fell in love with them. In the
1950's, he brought me back a surprise ball made in
Japan
. When I began to invent and design my own products, I was
drawn toward products that contained these layers of surprise -
objects that hid something of value underneath, or items
that initiated something beyond the thing itself.

From Our Customers
“You have an amazing niche. In truth what you do is most creative I
have seen it in this niche.” Roberta Minx MTV
“I
recently bought one of your surprise balls for my niece who was turning
7. Not only was she growing more
excited with each untwist of paper but so was 20 other little ones. Who
were for the first time during the whole
party sat quietly waiting for the next surprise to fall, and then would
all squeal with delight.” Customer
“I love you guys because you will customize little things when I
need it and it is so special. It really makes a
difference.” customer
“The ice lights were the hit of the party we used them anywhere and
everywhere. We lit up some of our displays
with them and of course had them in drinks. Everyone loved them
including Puff Daddy’s mom who brought a bag
filled home with her. Thanks so much for all your help.” Nina Bonnoyer,
Reebok

“I love your surprises! For Christmas dinner I like to put the
wrapped favors at each place setting. The criteria are
under $15, interactive and for children (even though we are
adults). Everyone has a great laugh and it is a good
ice breaker.” Beth Joy Goldstein
“My daughter believes in fairies, for her birthday, Christmas
and midsummer’s night we celebrate with a fire.
Your magic Yule logs draw the whole family close around the hearth
as we relax and watch the beautiful,
magical colors.” Beth Ary

" I was traveling with my husband and 5 year old daughter 3 months
ago. We live in
Los Angeles
but happened to be on a ferry boat in the
San Juan Islands
. Another family was sitting next to us with their little girl and our
girls started playing. The mom
pulled out two of your party balls and the girls were enchanted with
them. They played with them for the full hour we were on the ferry and had a wonderful
time. For me, it brought back fond memories of party balls I unraveled as a child and I loved watching my
daughter marvel in them now. Thank you for a memorable experience." Thea Piegdon
