Great News For Hostesses....Get More FREE Rewards Than Ever Before

Whenever Uppercase Living makes a BIG announcement, as they did last week at Convention, it takes me a little while to post about it. I love telling you all about new colors and new products, but when something comes up that completely changes the way we do business and interact with our customers and hostesses, I have to wrap my mind around it for a few days before I can coherently share my thoughts with you. Now that I've sufficiently mulled it over for over a week, I'm happy to some announce new changes that will help our hostesses earn more rewards than ever before by.

Until now, complete party orders have gone to the hostess, who delivered them to her guests. Unfortunately, only guests who were local could have their purchases count toward the hostess's party total and  determine the amount of FREE and half price she earns. With the new Hostess Center on my website, my hostesses can invite both local and out of town guests using the electronic invitations provided. Guests can RSVP, then shop online if they can't make it to the party. As long as they associate their order with their friend's party, the hostess gets credit toward her own UL shopping spree!

As a hostess, you will get your own personalized password to the Hostess Center, where you can send invitations and reminders, track RSVPs and check to see who has already placed an order. Best of all, you can track the guests' orders and watch your rewards add up. You no longer have to wait until your party to find out how much you'll earn in free hostess rewards. As soon as you send your electronic invitation, your friends can place their orders and help you get FREE products.

I'd like to get some feedback on how my hostesses like the now Hostess Center and online Hostess Tools. I thought the best way to do this was to create an informal Focus Group with 2-4 hostesses who can have parties in July or August, include some out of town guests as well as local ones to their parties, then share their thoughts on the experience with me. To thank you for helping with the Focus Group, you will receive additional hostess rewards and some bonus products.

Whether you decide to join my Focus Group or just want to have a party and finally include your family and friends who don't live nearby, there are a lot of great products from Uppercase Living that you will love sharing. Our new catalog is one of our best yet and the Hostess Tools will help you earn more rewards than were ever possible. It doesn't matter if you have just one room to decorate or your whole house. Schedule a fun night with your friends and let me help you make the most of all the FREE rewards that are yours for being one of my wonderful hostesses.

Grab a Drink and Snuggle Up With Your Computer

Love catalog shopping? Me too.
Hate piles of catalogs? Me too.
Hate the thought of those catalogs in landfills? Yeah, me too.

Just in time for Earth Day, Uppercase Living has added a fantastic feature to my website. You can now flip through all of our current catalogs right online. No matter that you misplaced your copy, or haven't called me for one of the new Spring Celebrations catalogs, or you gave your copy away to a friend who never returned it. Just go to my site and start flipping the pages. Call a friend and have her do the same...you can discuss options, colors and help each other decorate. Nothing like a quick shopping trip from the comfort of your own couch.

Now, I know that the best part of this whole experience is that it's free (no more buying catalogs unless you want a hard copy) and it saves lots of trees. I get it. Al Gore and all that. But for me, the other best part is the page turning sound. I really am so easily amused. Do you love it too? Let me know by voting in my poll. Don't worry, all votes are anonymous so I won't know that you are as easily entertained as I am.

Great New Feature on my Website

You've no doubt seen some of the great photos in the Uppercase Living Catalog & Idea Book or throughout my web site and wondered how to create a similar look. Now, UL has taken all of the guesswork out of project planning by providing recipes for some of our most popular projects.


By going to the Products tab of my website and clicking on Recipes you will find several projects to choose from. Each project includes a complete materials list, including non-Uppercase Living items, and step-by-step instructions. You can even add all of the UL items to your shopping cart at once without having to search through the site for each one.

Check out some of these great projects. You just might find the perfect gift or decor item.
