Handmade Home Shopping Parties!

Greenbelts eco-rings made from recycled leather and vintage buttons

I just received a bunch of amazing recycled leather and vintage button rings the other day, from Greenbelts. I’ve been stocking up on more handmade lines via wholesale, as I’m slowly working my way towards a retail store.

I’ve been selling my own work, along with the handmade & eco-friendly goods of other artists at local art markets for the last few months, and later this month, on Wednesday, October 21, I’m having my first home shopping party at my house! Think Tupperware or Avon but with handmade goodies instead! If you’re in New Orleans, please let me know if you’d like an invite!

I’ll be doing more of these parties in the coming months. I’ll be hosting my own parties at my home, but I’m also looking for local people who are interested in hosting! (I live in New Orleans, but I’m willing to travel to Baton Rouge, the Mississippi Gulf Coast and other parts of south Louisiana.)

As a host, you will automatically receive $25 worth of shop credit, good on any of the handmade & eco-friendly products that I currently carry, including great handmade lines like Wonder Thunder, Blythe King, Sublime Stitching, and more! And for being such a great host, you’ll also receive shop credit for 10% of total sales made at the party you host! There will be giveaways and freebies for your guests as well!

Please get in touch if you’re interested in coming to my first party on October 21st or if you’d like to host your own party at your home, office or elsewhere!

I’ll try to make it best I can. I love the idea of home parties, how fun!

Any advice on getting started with home parties? I make a line of children’s clothing and have been working craft shows for almost 20 years. Thanks so much.
