    Hello. It seems like you had a truly successful event. I’m planning an event to promote last minute sale of Christmas cards and small gifts. I’m partnering with a caterer and I want to do something that’s both fun and profitable. Any ideas?

  • Thank you, Nicole, for putting me in such great company! I hope to see a few more pillow dolls find homes for Christmas. :^D All the best!
