As a way to give me something to do outside of the home and office, and provide a relaxing "get-a-way" for other women, I am thinking about hosting Purse Parties or Jewelry making parties. Does anyone have any experience in this area?

Hello I'm Anita,
Its very easy to get started. I started out ten years ago. I collected emails and telephones numbers in my travels from customers and when I was ready to give a jewelry party, I just contacted them to see if they were still interested and sent them out a invite. Another party I had a lady confronted me and asked if I would give a yard party with her. She sold handbags and I made jewelry. I didn't start out with them making them but by the end of the weekend I had ladies sitting down trying their hands at jewelry making and it picked up from there. Don't forget to sell your merchandise at the same time. Good Luck! Get an idea of how many people you want, put some jewelry packs together and go for it! Don't forget the door prizes and games. You will have a good time. God Bless you in your endeavors.

I have purchased purses wholesale and had very successful purse parties. I haven't done jewelry making but it sounds like fun.
