Some of these theme party
ideas are geared towards Tupperware Reps, but there are a lot of them that
can be changed to fit any party plan!
#1) New
Year, New You Party!
(great for home organization ideas, weightloss & healthy eating, pampering
& spa type of parties, etc.)
#2)Home Organization Party!
#3) Beat The Winter Blues Party!
#4) Sweet Treats for Lovers on Valentines Day!
#5) Lovers & Couples Cooking Party focusing on Sweet Desserts
#6) MEN Only Cooking Party! Learn to make Sweet Treats for your Mate!
#7) St Patricks Day Party, Luck of the Irish!
#8) Girls Night In! Party in your PJS Slumber Party! (no men allowed!)
#9) Home Catering Business Tupperware Party
#10) Home Daycare Owners Party! (demo the Tupperware Toys, Sipper Cups,
Toddler Meal Sets etc)
#11) Easter Party! (kids paint eggs or go on a back yard easter egg hunt,
while the adults enjoy a Tupperware Party focusing on Easter Dinner Meal
Planning)
#12) KIDS Only! Tupperware Gift Shopping Party! This is better done with
Cash & Carry Stock! Invite the kids over to shop for a Gift for Mom &
Grandma for Easter! You can get cheap wrapping paper & some crafting
supplies at the dollar store & have them make a Easter Greeting Card too!
#13) Spring Cleaning & Home Organization Party!
#14) Treat your MOM Tupperware Party! ONLY MOMS & Adult Children are
invited! Enjoy a fantastic BRUNCH before the party!
#15) Romantic Outing Picnic Basket Party! Invite all the girls to the
party and learn how to prepare a romantic basket to take your lover on a
Picnic!
#16) Hawian Luau Tropical Summer Party!
#17) MEN ONLY Summer BBQ & Grilling Outdoor Party!
#18) Mothers Day Tea & Dessert Party!
#19) KIDS ONLY! Mothers Day Tupperware Party! Again, works best with Cash
& Carry Stock! Have the kids make a Mothers Day Card while at the party
and then hold a contest on who made the best card, funniest card, most
creative card so that they can have alot of fun! (90 minutes is a GREAT
time range for this type of party).
#20) Summer Fun & Entertainment Party. Learn how to have successful,
entertaining, fun and delicious summer parties for you & your friends!

gifts for their wives, girlfriends, mothers, sisters etc!
#44) Wine Tasting Party! (make sure you check with your company first to
make sure its okay to have alcoholic beverages at your party). While
Guests are "wine tasting" you can do a party for tupperware, pampered
chef, richmond direct etc. I think this could be "tweeked" to fit other
types of party plans too!
#45) Holiday Baking with Children Party
#46) Holiday Cookie Exchange Party
#47) Secret Santa Party! (have guests make a list of 3 items below $25
each) then have each guest draw a slip of paper and they have to BUY one
of those items on that list for the Secret Santa pal without letting them
know its her! Then you have a second half of the party in a few weeks when
the orders come in and invite guests back to exchange their gifts & for
them to try to guess who it was that was their secret Santa!)
#48) Secret Santa Office Gift Party! Alot of workplace offices these days
do secret santa parties & exchanges! I make up a list ahead of time of all
items that we sell that are $12 and less! I attach the list to the front
of the catalog and ONLY demo those items! Guests are always looking for
affordable gifts for their secret santa office parties and you can help
them find them!)
#49) Back to School Party! If you sell items that back to school kids &
moms can use this is a GREAT theme Party! Tupperware Has dripless
tumblers, sports bottles, sandwhich keepers, snack cups, fruit lockers.
lunch boxes etc. I put them ALL ON SALE in August to attract back to
school shoppers!

you have a big enough home! Do it on a day that there is a BIG sporting
Event! All the guys in one room watching the game while the girls party in
another room!
#73) Trim-the-tree party! Have the hostess put up her Holiday Tree & dig
out her decorations! You all have a tree trimming party & afterwards you
can hold your REGULAR SALES party!
#74) Food On the Go Party! Works well with Tupperware & Pampered Chef.
Adults are always looking for ways to transport their food to work & back
as well as packing lunch for the kids for school!
#75) Shop for your Second Home Party! These days alot of people have
vacation homes, condos, cabins etc. and they need to stock that home too
with housewares & goodies!
#76) Make Great Treats & Sweets for Bake Sales Party! Busy Moms are always
looking for a way to make great treats for all those bake sales! You demo
some recipes, kitchen gadgets, ways to transport those treats to the bake

time changes here in the USA) but you can do them any time! You can set it
up that if guests order within 30 minutes of the party starting they get a
15% discount, at 45 minutes it drops down to 10% and so forth!
#81) Auction Party with your Cash & Carry Products or your Discontinued
Stock!
#82) A cut above the Rest Party! Great if you sell cutlery, food choppers,
scissors or if you just sell stylish products!
#83) Hip, Trendy & Chic Party! Great for those who sell clothing,

#85) Ice Cream Social Party!
#86) Kitchen Cooking & Household Solutions Party
#87) Online Chat Room Party!
#88) Pass the Catalog Party!
#89) Community Work From Home Festival! Use this more for recruiting but
also accept orders from those who come to just buy from you! Part of
growing your business is getting your business out in front of your
community!
#90) If you love to Read why not form a Book Club in your neighborhood?
This works well if you are with a Book Home Party Company such as Usborne.
#91) 5 Ingredients or Less party! Again, this is appropiate for Kitchen
Types of companies.
#92) Moms on a Budget party! During this type of theme party you ONLY
demo items that are $20 or less!

represent NON-Competing Types of products in your community. Get together
and you all HOLD ONE BIG party!
#94) Party Swap! Team up with another Consultant & Swap Parties with her!

This encourages HIGH party sales!

#98) Adopt a Neighborhood Needy Family Party! Find a neighborhood needy
family (churches are great sources for this) and donate all of the freebie

party! New moms need a break so giving them a few hours without the kids

#101) Dieting Buddies Party! They say that losing weight is more
successful if you have a dieting buddy! So if you sell gourmet foods,
natural & healthy supplements, vitamins, or exercise equipment you can
start a dieting buddies program that incorporates this type of party into
it!
