I got a booking from Sunday's show and she just brought a new home and wants to have a Pampered Chef party so that she can invite everyone and show of her home. Any suggestions as to how to handle this type of show.
Thanks for any advise you can give me.
 
I have a house warming party coming up at the end of April and my host assures me there will be at least 50 people there..mostly family and friends who have not been to her new house since she moved back to town. We are going to set it up like an open house with food displayed in PC products as well as a table with my products on it. I plan on displaying my trifold board and catalogs and having door prizes and offering 10% off anyone's total order if they book a show for May. I am also going to display the RUFTH Trivet and information about Pampered Chef's contribution to Feeding America.
 
What about a house warming party invitation? Any ideas? I am doing a party the end of April.

Thanks for your ideal, that is something I can talk about to the host. I also would like to have any ideals as for invitations.
 
Here's the housewarming invite I made up for one I'm doing next month. I'd gladly appreciate any tips or feedback. :balloon: This invite is actually front/back on 1/2 of an 8 1/2" x 11" cardstock. You print it, then flip it in your printer so it prints out on the back (in opposite) and then cut them in half. Then you get the oversized envelopes to mail them out. (you can also slip a mini catalog in the envelope to;)

Hope this makes sense.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the best time to host a housewarming party?

The best time to host a housewarming party is typically within the first month of moving into your new home. This allows you to settle in while still creating excitement among friends and family. Consider weekends or evenings when most guests are available.

How many guests should I invite to my housewarming party?

The number of guests you invite depends on the size of your new home and your comfort level. A good rule of thumb is to invite close friends and family, aiming for a mix of around 10 to 20 people. This creates an intimate atmosphere while still allowing for social interaction.

What should I serve at a housewarming party?

For a housewarming party, consider serving a variety of finger foods, snacks, and beverages. Options like cheese platters, vegetable trays, and mini sandwiches are great for mingling. You can also include a signature cocktail or mocktail to add a personal touch.

How can I incorporate Pampered Chef products into my housewarming party?

Incorporating Pampered Chef products can enhance your party experience. Use their kitchen tools for food preparation and presentation. You can also host a mini cooking demonstration or offer guests the chance to purchase items they love during the event, making it both fun and interactive.

What activities can I include to make my housewarming party memorable?

To make your housewarming party memorable, consider including activities like a home tour, games, or a DIY project station. You could also create a guestbook for attendees to leave messages or advice for your new home, which can be a lovely keepsake.
