Sew Sweet Bags Parties
Shop with Friends and Family at Home
Sew Sweet Bags is now offering home bag parties in the Boston area!
A Sew Sweet Bags party is a fun way to shop for colorful and classic
handcrafted fabric handbags, shoulder bags, totes, and more from the
comfort of your home, surrounded by the friends you most like to get
together with. And as the hostess, you can earn free bags for yourself
OR raise funds for your favorite charity!
What to Expect at a Sew Sweet Bags Party
As the hostess of a Sew Sweet Bags party, all you need to do is
provide adequate space for setting up product displays, some light
refreshments, and some guests who will enjoy visiting and shopping
for bags! Sew Sweet Bags makes it easy to invite your guests with
printable party invitations or text to copy and paste for an Evite or other
online invitation. On the day of your party, Sew Sweet Bags will provide a wide
array of ready-made bags in a pressure-free environment, and your guests may
shop from among those to purchase on the spot or get assistance from the Sew
Sweet Bags owner in designing a custom bag of their very own. (The
design-your-own Sew Sweet Bag option is currently available only at a Sew
Sweet Bags party! See below for more details.) The only
"presentation" is a quick explanation of how to design your own bag to help
streamline your guests' party experience. Your guests can also look forward to
exclusive specials available only at a Sew Sweet Bags party.
Any orders placed by guests at your party will be filled within two
to three weeks (depending on order volume). Guests can choose to have
their orders delivered free of charge to you, as hostess, for distribution,
or they can choose to have their orders shipped directly to them for a
nominal shipping charge.
You and your guests may pay for party purchases with cash or check.
Design-Your-Own Sew Sweet Bag
Sew Sweet Bags is excited to offer your guests the option of designing
their own bag at your Sew Sweet Bags party! It's easy and fun.
First, a "designer" selects a bag style from among
seven different choices and chooses her own fabrics for the exterior and
lining of her custom bag. Then she can choose from a menu of options to
customize her bag with unique trims, extra pockets, a choice of closures, and more! Sew
Sweet Bags owner Emily Keaton will be on hand to help with the design
process. Click here to view
the menu of design-your-own options. Keep in
mind that designing your own bag is available only at a Sew Sweet Bags Party!

be ready within two to three weeks and can be picked up from me, your hostess, or
shipped directly to you (for a nominal shipping charge).
