I have a hostess who is WILD about the trifle bowl and wants to do a show all about the varies uses for this bowl. Now I have all the reciepes and ideas for weddings, holiday decorations and the such..... but, what I need is some sort of a invitation. I'm sorta a newbie and I'm wondering if when this bowl came out were there invitations available that had a picture of it on them???? Does anyone have some I could buy???? Does anyone have a flyer highlighting the many differant uses of the bowl?

I'm excited about the show, and LOVE my Trifle Bowl so I'm sure the party will be a HUGE sucess. I would design my own flyer but I have yet to figure out how to maneuver around in microsoft word.

Can you help me out????

Thanks,

Carol
 
I haven't seen any invites but you could make our own. You can pull old pictures on here, the website, etc. Make a full or half page invitiation with all the pictures encouraging people to come and see the wonderful trifle bowl in action.
 
Hmmm.

Perhaps a little play on words. Something about "We're not trifling with you. . .this product will really bowl you over"

Not terribly clever :blushing: . . .but perhaps this will give you a direction in which to move.
 
When the trifle came out, I used a "Layer The Flavor" invite. That doesn't do much for non-food uses, but it really went over well.

Trifle Bowl recipesI went browsing for recipes last year and came up with this... change info to yours, and feel free to share as you will.

An awesome thing to email to customers who purchase the bowl - (maybe print ONE for looky-loos. I wouldn't print it and give it to them.)

Just an update, what I ended up doing was using the page from the catalog, covering up the big bowl picture, scaning it, then inserting the party invite into the blank space. LOOKS GREAT!!!! I really like using this because it gives a recipe and a picture of alot of differant uses for the bowl.

Would love to add the attachment here, but it is in a older program called "Printmaster" and I can't get it from my computer to the web.

Thanks Scott! Those are great! I have a gal who ordered a trifle bowl and her partner said "You'd better use it!" I had pulled a few recipes for her but this is way better!
