First Uppercase Living Party

For those of you who don’t know, I have started selling Uppercase Living products.  These are cute vinyl expressions that can be placed on walls or other surfaces.  There were too many that I wanted, so I knew I couldn’t just buy the products.   Chad would not have let me get all the things I wanted if I had to pay for them.  So, my only option was to sell them myself.  I’ve never wanted to do something like this before.  I always felt like these jobs were a nuisance to friends.  I don’t want to bug my friends to buy things or make them feel like I’m constantly trying to sell them things.  Hopefully, I won’t have to do that.  I really think the Uppercase Living items sell themselves, especially if you are in to decorating your home.  Here is a picture of something I made tonight by putting Uppercase Living products that I created on a tile I bought at Lowes.

Well, anyway, tonight I had my first party and I played hostess too.  I invited over some friends to check out the Uppercase Living and so I could practice.  Only 3 girls were able to come, so it was a pretty intimate event.  I think it was a little weird presenting to my friends.  It probably would have been easier if I had been talking to a group of strangers.  Once again, I really don’t want to bug my friends.  I don’t want to risk harming a relationship because I seem pushy.  Overall, it was a nice evening, and I’m glad I’ve got my first party under my belt.

One of the best things about the party was the refreshments.  We had sausage balls, cheese ball, bread and bacon dip, and my new favorite Funfetti cake cookies.  The cookie recipe can be found on the side of a Funfetti cake mix.  They taste like a combination of sugar cookies and cake batter.  You top them with the rainbow chip icing and you have a super yummy dessert that no one can resist.  I think I might have to go get one now.
