"The most important thing when you sell at home parties is to be friendly. Even if I'm feeling nervous, I just put a big smile on my face and greet everyone cheerfully. If you're approachable, people are much more likely to buy from you as well as book more parties."

• I've set up a pricing poll to find out your views on displaying prices, so please take a minute to vote.
• There's also a new section on books and magazines related to having a craft business. I hope it's useful to you! Please let me know if there's anything else you'd like to see there.
• A new article has been added about using party plan companies to sell or teach crafts.
• There's a new page with links to free business tools and craft projects. These aren't just gimmicks - I've used most of them myself and found them useful for my craft business, so do take a look.
• And finally an RSS feed and site blog has been added to craft-selling-parties.com which will enable you to find out about updates as they happen. Look out for the little orange buttons under the contents on every page. You can also use the 'Add to Yahoo', 'My MSN' or 'Add to Google' buttons to add the feed to your homepage.

They describe themselves as "the ultimate guide to the new world of craft"! They've got a great couple of articles about setting up your craft booth display, and what not to do as a vendor - both are very applicable to home party sellers.
