No problem. I like the games that they tell you about.

Hope you do well.

Cheers.

I used to do jewellery parties which I know is slightly different, but I found it best to take an ifnormal, friendly approach and I learnt from experience it's much better to take too much rather than not enough.

I normally display all my items on a piece of luxury fabric to make them stand out, and never actually mention the prices, instead I have hand-made price labels by each product. I then used to introduce each piece and pass it round for people to look at, then invite people to come over and take a look, purchase, ask questions, make orders etc I found it worked really well.

I only stopped doing them because I didnt have enough time to make all the jewellery.

I hope it goes well!

I lay everything out on nice material, I don't like these party games they put people off coming

I tend to let people come and look around at there leisure and I am there if any questions need answering

i liked the mystery envelope idea, give each person an envelope with either a free gift or discount
i will speak to my lady and see what sort of thing she wants me to do


thanks for all the advice
