I am participating in something called "Pink on the Square." There will be different vendors, all of which will be selling products that women would be interested in. Obviously, the pink has to do with Breast Cancer Awareness. I was wondering what you would recommend that I do as far as set up. Also, would you do any book to looks featuring, instead of a PC product, maybe something that has to do with Breast Cancer Awareness? I am doing this the last day in September. Any, and I mean ANY advice would be well appreciated:)
 
Do you have any of the PC Breast Cancer awareness simple additions or anything from pc that supports breast cancer awareness??
 
I have a million of the ACS brochures and a TON of HWC pins from this year if you need them.
 
Cookies or cupcakes with pink frosting, on the 3-tired stand because it is so beautiful! I, too, have a bunch of brochures and pins if you need. Suggest hosting fundraiser shows for the American Cancer Society or Susan G Komen!

Thank you for your help. If you have any more advice, I am always looking:) I would love to get the brochures from you. Just email me at: [email protected]
I have plenty of pins. I am thinking of giving those that book a show a pin with a season's best. I went to VIP from cc and I was hoping that they were still selling some of the help whip cancer shirts, so that I could wear one, but they aren't:(
 
Did you look at their website??? they have some of that stuff on their websites!!Good luck!!

Leah,
I did look on the VIP website and they didn't have anymore HWC stuff left. Let me know if I am looking in the wrong place but I am pretty sure that they are carrying any of the items anymore:(
 
Kim, You can find the HWC emblem on the PC website and do an iron on transfer or take it to an embroidery shop and do it on a pink shirt.
 
Yeah their out of their of HWC stuff.... bummer deal but you can , do the iron on thing with the a pink tshirt........ good luck
 
If someone is hesitant to have a party, suggest hosting a HWC fundraiser - either now or next spring. It's a long time away but, hey, better late than never...

You are not allowed to take any PC registered trademarks to anyone else to use. But I would think you could do the iron-on printed off from your computer.
 
You can use something that has to do with PC and says something about Breast Cancer awareness...... My Cluster has tshirts made up for confernce, that said our team name, said pampered chef and on the back said we're cooking!!! done in rinestones looked really good!!!
 
If you are looking for items with the Pink Ribbon on them for this event. Try www.actionbag.com they have lots of things with the ribbon on them for breast cancer awareness. I am going to be purchasing the Silicone Awareness Band and putting them away for next May. I will be using them as give aways when some one orders a pink product. It is going to cost $50 for 100 bands.
