Hey guys, I just made a new flyer and wanted to share it with you. My cousin is hosting her 3rd show with me within 9 months. She tries so hard but just never gets a good turn out (partly because she won't make reminder calls). It's been really cold here (20's and 30's) so I wanted to make a really warm and inviting invite without looking too Christmasy. Hope you all enjoy.

P.S. I did offer to make the reminder calls for her, but I've yet to receive the phone numbers from her.

Thank you. I am trying so hard to make the invites look really appealing so lots of guest will show up. I'm having a Desperate Housewives show on the 19th, and I can't wait!!! I've been searching this thread all day getting ideas.

Jennifer,

Get her list (names and phone numbers) and make the reminder calls FOR her. I send my hosts invites and make the reminder calls. It has been WELL worth the effort.

Good Luck!

I did send her the guest list that someone from this site created. It has a place for the names as well as their phone number. Well, when she mailed it back it had no phone numbers. I called her and told her if she got them for me, would make the follow up calls. She said ok, but she never did. Since she is my cousin, I know a lot of the people anyway. I should be able to find most of the #'s
 
When that happens to me, I use switchboard. You can put in their name and city and zip and it comes up with a phone # if it is listed. You can google switchboard and it will come up.
