Thank you so much. I am preparing for my first Bridal Shower and was so nervous, but this has helped me so much!

 

[CheleYos]

Aimee,
I am doing my first PC bridal shower for a dear friend. I want to make it very special. Thank you so much for your generosity in sharing your files. God Bless You!

The first of 49 pages of Pampered Chef products to be printed on 2"x4" labels (or just print on whatever and cut them out - in PDF format, for your convenience!



My favorite tips for these:
"I stick the labels onto heart cut-outs in the bride's colors. (I teach, so I have easy access to a die cut machine.) Then I stick the hearts on the board and the guests come and take the heart off of the board for the item(s) that they are purchasing for the bride. I also have them sign their name on the back of the heart and give it to the bride for thank you note purposes." --straitfan

"I want to get 3 baskets and put them in according to price ($0-20, 21-50, 51+). I found an electric laminating machine at a garage sale today, so I will be able to laminate the "bride" labels. For this party at least, I doubt that she will want to keep them, so they can be reused." --TeresaLM

"I have printed all these on card stock and then cut out, punched them with a paper punch and strung them on 4 binder circles. That way more than 1 guest can look at the wishlist at a time, various prices on each circle." --happy2bachef

First off I LOVE this! Thank you so much for all your hard work! My question is this... Does anyone know of a way to choose which items you want and have only those items on a sheet? Then I am not printing the ones the bride does not want... My Bride has ALOT on her list and I thought I might put the pages onto a clipboard, but do not want the items she has "not" chosen. With it being a PDF File it won't let me copy and paste them into another file... I may be dreaming but just wishing!

 

[frozenchef]

Sorry alida - there's not a way to do that with a PDF - if I uploaded it in Word none of the formatting would stick and images would be all over the place

 

[alidafrizzell]

No Problem Aimee! I did not figure so... but am not nearly as "techy" as I would like to be... so thought I would ask! Awesome job by the way! It is so appreciated!

A sort of workaround-- When you open the .pdf files, you can choose to save them as .jpg files. (this is on a PC, btw.) Then open Paint and open the .jpg files. Then you can select and erase the images you don't need. You can also select other images and move them around.
Might not be the prettiest, but it works...

Thank you for this!! First bridal show is tomorrow! EEK!

So....this method worked on my work computer, but saving as a .jpg file is not an option on my home computer. Sorry for any inconvenience!

I had asked a question but then found the answer in the original post. oopsie!

 

[BNORCROSS]

This is my first Bridal shower as well, it is in July, do you treat the bride and groom as host? and whatever free products and 1/2 price goes to them? or does the person hosting the bridal shower get the free and 1/2 price items?
If anyone can answer my questions I would appreciate it from the bottom of my heart.

 

[frozenchef]

Usually the hostess is the maid of honor or mother of the bride, who usually does offer those benefits to the bride.

Glad everyone is enjoying them
Another fun thing I do for bridal showers (only) is have the customers put a "B" next to the items for the bride so they can still order things for themselves as well. While I'm totaling their order, I have the guest fill out a colored index card (usually the bride's colors) with a little note and have them sign it. Then, for bridal showers only, I have the boxes shipped to me, I sort them and put all of the bride's things in separate bags with the index cards attached and tie ribbons on them (in her colors of course) - this makes it easy for her to see what was from who. Then the guests who ordered for themselves get separate bags with the packing slips attached (although I've heard that now HO won't send packing slips if the boxes go to the consultant) and the bride's items on the slip highlighted so they don't think they're missing anything.
I love doing bridal showers

So totally awesome of you to do this, and keep up with the changes. THANK YOU!! A way you can get a host packing slip and have it sent to you, is send it to someone else's name c/o your address. I have an awesome repeat host (who promises she'll never be a consultant, but I keep asking her!) who went through a very painful divorce and now doesn't give out her address or phone number period. So I have her shows shipped to me, then drop them at her work. Usually I sort them, unless she specifically tells me she has time to do so.

PS - don't click the "consultant as host" button on P3. (sorry, don't know what web ordering is like yet... hopefully they'll have that open to everyone by Fall!)

This is very impressive frozenchef, and I am very grateful for your hard work in getting this done and sharing it. Thank you so very much!

These are perfect for the "Booking Beads" necklaces I just learned about. Just print out the ones I want and laminate them for the necklace.Thanks.

I'm bumping this because I LOVE these, and I am so NOT computer savvy.
Thanks so much for any help!

Okay, everyone, I've been trying for two hours to cut and paste from this document to make just the labels that I need for my bridal registry. When I try to paste the pictures in a word labels doc, the picture takes up the entire page. I am so computer illiterate. Can someone make a suggestion as to how I can make the picture smaller? Thanks so much. I've tried changing the fonts etc.

If it’s not quite what you want, do the same procedure again, or press “ctrl-z” to undo which will put it back to the last selection you made. Hope this helps --LP

Thank you so much for this suggestion! When I get them done, I will post them, if they work out .

Hi Aimee! This is wonderful! Have you updated this for the Fall/Winter 2012 Catalog?

 

[frozenchef]

I have not. Sorry tbellmerpc

 

[[email protected]]

frozenchef, I have a consultant who is working on that. I'll share when I get it.

 

[Chefjpeak]

Does anyone have the update for F/W 2012 yet? Thanks!

 

[ChefPeg]

Does anyone have the update for F/W 2012 yet? Thanks!

I don't recall seeing one, but would it be worth it, seeing as how fw2012 is going to be old news in three weeks?

 

[frozenchef]

I will definitely be making S/S 2013 ones as I have a bridal shower in April. But I wait until they post the complete S/S 2013 Product List that is sorted by Item Number - otherwise it takes 5 times as long to make the cards since I like to keep them in order for easy reference.

 

[gaddischef]

man....need the fall/winter 2012 ones. You did so awesome, and I am so computer illerate!! I have 2 bridal showers this weekend and could use them. Will be excited for the new ones! Thx so much!!
