Also make sure the refreshments include alcoholic AND non alcoholic beverages or maybe just wine and soda. Most parties I've enjoyed include these things...........Have Fun!SecondChanceChickenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08369002701413795400noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-521862538481138998.post-33464962409654288272008-11-10T09:53:00.000-05:002008-11-10T09:53:00.000-05:00I did craft shows for a long time.

What about if you set a minimum amount of and order to get the freebie? Make the minimum just over your cheapest item price so you can encourage sales of more than one item at a time.<BR/><BR/>Good luck with the party.Kathleen J.https://www.blogger.com/profile/08797876054948832560noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-521862538481138998.post-22973134810632324652008-11-09T10:55:00.000-05:002008-11-09T10:55:00.000-05:00Jackie - I'm doing my first jewelry party on the 2...Jackie - I'm doing my first jewelry party on the 22nd! Good luck with yours :) The idea of the little colorful bags that they were mentioning are perfect - and make sure you get the mirror - from doing markets I can tell you that's really important! People like to try a piece on and see how it looks on them.<BR/><BR/>Variety is great, and having a variety of price points is good too. But I'm pretty sure you have that from what you said.<BR/><BR/>Let's see...promo code for next purchase is a good idea. You might also want to do some sort of giveaway. I'm going to have people fill out a small slip of paper with their name, and either phone number or e-mail, and give away a few items. That way if they are still present when I draw the name, great, if not, they will still find out!<BR/><BR/>Hope that helps :)Live, Love, Laugh, Write!https://www.blogger.com/profile/07004471744200892329noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-521862538481138998.post-81198379934376819072008-11-08T14:23:00.000-05:002008-11-08T14:23:00.000-05:00What about using those little drawstring fabric ba...What about using those little drawstring fabric bags you can buy at AC Moore, the ones some people use for wedding favors? You could pre-cut some squares of tissue paper, white or colored, to put inside.<BR/><BR/>As the proud owner of some of your jewelry, I can say with authority that I think your pieces will be very popular!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-521862538481138998.post-65596344939743536142008-11-08T12:30:00.000-05:002008-11-08T12:30:00.000-05:00Hey - I am doing the exact same thing next weekend...Hey - I am doing the exact same thing next weekend - at my SIL - there will be jewelry there too - when is yours?

They are usually where you find greeting cards. Cheap, I mean INEXPENSIVE, and pretty. I'm using Christmas decorated ones this weekend at my craft fair. <BR/><BR/>Sounds like a great idea, having a jewelry party. I don't know enough people to do something like that. I'm sure people will buy from you, esp. in a party setting. Just tell them what you used, and maybe how you made them. If they're all friends, there will be enough talking going on. Have fun!!storybeaderhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02401051545867204851noreply@blogger.com
