Have a Stork-the-freezer baby shower tomorrow and host has decided that guest will now be purchasing items for the mom-to-be. Problem is I don't have a wish list for her and won't until I arrive. Wanting to have something printed that she can sort through and then have available for guest to pick from. Anyone have a file I can use? Thanks in advance!
 
I don't have a file, but you could take a catalog, and cut out the pictures, and put them on index cards if you don't get anything else.

Although, that does sound like quite a bit of work...

Thanks. I can check but to save time, are these current? and do they contain everything in the catalog?

Thanks!
 
don't think so I found them in the files section and I thought it would save you a little time to at least have a starting point,,,,,sorry.

So it took ALL afternoon, like 3 hrs. but have finally gotten them cut/pasted into labels that can be printed. Need to go back and increase the font on the first file, but think it's time for a break for now. Remember they'll have to be updated again come Sept. 1. The 2 files make up the entire spring 2011 product line.

Why don't you just use the Wish List already available in the Downloads section of the website? One of them is listed alphabetically and another is listed by category. The list has the item, price and page number in the catalog. I use this list when I have vendor events and customers ask me about a particular product. It's so easy to just look at one sheet (front and back) instead of flipping through a catalog. I use this when I have a bridal show. It's really tight fitting all of our products into a 2-page document, so I give her a highlighter instead of asking her to circle things, but I am so into NOT reinventing the wheel!
