Does the trivet design change yearly?

When did they start selling these?

Can we get one FREE every year, as long as we promote them at every show?
 
It changes every year in September.

They started the Trivets in 2006 - 2005 was the last year they offered the stoneware molds.

We can get a free one each year on supply order, no matter what.
 
yes we get 1 free each year...
 
The new one is pretty. It's square, and will be available September 1.
There's info in the special edition CN about how to get one for yourself.

I posted in the Marketplace thread about this for you. They call the first one 2006 since it came out in F/W 2006 but was sold through S/S 2007. They change every fall. The new one will be the third.

Frequently Asked Questions

What are trivets and what purpose do they serve in the kitchen?

Trivets are heat-resistant surfaces designed to protect countertops and tables from hot cookware. They provide a stable base for hot pots, pans, and dishes, preventing damage to surfaces and reducing the risk of burns or heat damage.

What is the history of trivets?

The history of trivets dates back to ancient times when they were used to hold pots over an open flame. Traditionally made from metal, wood, or ceramic, trivets have evolved in design and material over the years, adapting to modern kitchen aesthetics while still serving their essential function.

What types of materials are commonly used to make trivets?

Trivets can be made from a variety of materials, including silicone, wood, metal, and ceramic. Each material offers different benefits, such as heat resistance, durability, and aesthetic appeal, allowing consumers to choose a trivet that best fits their kitchen style and needs.

Are there any special promotions on trivets from Pampered Chef?

Pampered Chef frequently offers promotions and discounts on their products, including trivets. These promotions can vary by season or special events, so it's best to check their official website or contact a Pampered Chef consultant for the latest offers and deals.

How can I care for and maintain my trivet?

Generally, wooden trivets should be hand washed and periodically treated with mineral oil, while silicone and metal trivets can often be washed in the dishwasher. Always refer to the manufacturer's care instructions for specific guidelines to ensure longevity.
