How to Host a Jewelry Home Party

Collect the names of people you want to invite; they can be friends, relatives, neighbors and acquaintances or people who have been referred to you as possibly being interested in jewelry.
Send out invitations to the potential guests on your jewelry home party list. Let people know the date, time and place. Include a map if you think people will have trouble finding the location. Be sure to add an RSVP so you know how much food and drink to order. Send out the invitations at least two weeks before the event but three weeks is better. Send a reminder note or email or call about a week before the event.
Order any supplies you need for the party: your jewelry kit, catalogs, business cards and order forms. If your company provides a hostess gift and you are holding the party at someone else's house, order the gift at this time, too.
Buy food and drink a day or so before the event.
On the day of the party, set out the food and refreshments. Arrange the jewelry display and catalogs on tables in the room so people can see them as they mingle.
Encourage guests to eat some food and relax as they arrive. Give them a little time to get acclimated before you start the party.
Start the party with a game---a raffle, for example. This breaks the ice and offers people the chance to win something right away.
Present the hostess with her gift and encourage others to act as hostesses for your next party.
Go over the details of the jewelry display and pass the items around. Answer any questions. Pass out catalogs and order forms.
Collect people's money for their orders.
Follow up the party with a thank-you card to the hostess and the people who attended.
Notify people when their gifts come in, if the company ships all orders to you. Deliver them, if that's part of your business setup. Encourage people again to host a party when you deliver their merchandise.

How to Host a Church Fair (11 Steps)

Organize a fair committee to help make plans and make sure the fair runs smoothly.
Institute a budget for the fair. The budget helps establish plans and needs.
Establish a date and location where the fair will be held.
Plan for the fair to be held during lunch or dinner hours. This allows people to enjoy a few hours of play and entertainment and is an opportune time for fellowship.
Chose a location that will best suit games, entertainment, food and social interaction. Set up a stage for the entertainment, booths or areas for games, and tables and chairs for people to eat and visit.
Create a fun theme for a church fair. A theme can add character and fun to your fair. Try a theme like Noah's Ark or God's Creation with a petting zoo and animals, or try a theme that is Carnival Fun with games and clowns.
Prepare a menu that will go along with your theme. Ask volunteers to make potluck dishes, set up barbecue grills to cook burgers or hotdogs or make sandwiches. Add chips or fruit to go along with your menu and be sure to include pop, punch or water. Also, ice cream or floats are a hit!
Ask the church body to set up and run booths of home made crafts, baked goods or garage sale items to sell.
Create a game atmosphere of fun and joy for kids of all ages. Plan for carnival games, booths or stations for the kids. Also you can rent a 'Bounce House' for kids to jump and have a ball.
Select entertainment. A few ideas for entertainment may be: a Band, a DJ, talent show, karaoke, comedy or theatre. Chose entertainment that is appropriate for your church fair but is also geared to entertain and have fun.
Explore the opportunity to use a church fair as a fund raising opportunity. You can sell food tickets or game tickets to help raise funds to cover the costs of the fair or use the funds as a donation to a charity or organization.

How to Embed TTF Fonts in CSS (4 Steps)

Open the HTML file for the Web page where you wish to display the embedded font. For websites or templates using a separate header file, open that instead. Use a code-editing program such as Notepad++, jEdit or BBEdit. Look for the following line of code in the top of your HTML file:
Look at the name of the .CSS file referenced in the
tag and open that file in your code editor. If you see no
tag, create one and then create a blank .CSS file.
Add the following code at the top of your .CSS file:@font-face {font-family: 'Font Name Here';src: URL('fontfile.ttf') format ('ttf');}Give a font family name to your font. You can use any name, but stick with a name that is easy to type and remember. Type the full or relative path to your .TTF file between the parentheses after 'URL.'
Use the embedded font as you would use a Web-safe font such as Arial, Helvetica or Georgia. Here is an example:h1 {font-family: 'Font Name Here', 'Another Font', generic;}The above code makes all tags use your embedded font. Should the embedded font not work, the browser will use 'Another Font' for level-one headers. In the case 'Another Font' does not exist on the user's computer, the browser goes to the last font. Use a generic family name here such as 'serif' and 'sans-serif.'
Upload your font using an FTP tool. If you do not use FTP, you can also log into your Web hosting control panel and then navigate to your file management tool. Most Web hosts offer this tool, which allows you to upload a few files at a time through your browser.

How to Create a Social Website (6 Steps)

Install WordPress on your Web server. Due to its popularity, WordPress is now offered as a standard application available with many Web-hosting plans. Some Web-hosting services offer an automatic installation option for WordPress. If you don't have much experience installing Web applications, select a Web host that offers automatic WordPress installation and you'll save a lot of time.
Install the BuddyPress plug-in. You can automatically install BuddyPress from the WordPress dashboard by going to the 'Plug-ins' menu on the left side of the Dashboard and selecting 'Add New.' Enter 'BuddyPress' in the plug-in search box. In the result listings, you'll see BuddyPress. Install BuddyPress by selecting the 'Install Now' link under the BuddyPress name.
Configure BuddyPress. BuddyPress has features for activity streams, editable user profiles, friend connections, private messaging, blogging and groups. Because BuddyPress is a WordPress plug-in, it is extensible, which means that features can be added to run alongside BuddyPress in the WordPress system. The BuddyPress.org site runs on WordPress and BuddyPress, so you can visit their site to see it in use.
Generate content for your website. Using WordPress, you can add pages or posts with content for your visitors and members. WordPress allows you to add text, images and video content to your website.
Promote your social website. You can use search engine optimization, pay-per-click advertising or other traditional advertising methods to generate awareness of your social website. If your website is dedicated to a specific interest group or organization, you may be able to promote the website within the interest group or organization membership.
Manage the users. Because social websites permit a certain degree of user-generated content, you may want to review some or all of the new contributions to the site to make sure that no illegal or objectionable content is being added. Also, if you allow comments on your pages or posts, you'll want to install a comment spam blocker such as the 'akismet' plug-in. In general, you'll need to keep an eye on users and the content they are adding to make sure that your social website doesn't get hijacked by spammers.

How to Use SSL With Joomla

Purchase an SSL certificate from your Web hosting provider or another reseller. Have the provider enable the certificate for use on your domain.
Browse to the control panel for your Web hosting account. Use the 'File Manager' to locate the '.htaccess' file in your site's root directory. Download and save the file to your computer.
Open the '.htaccess' file with Notepad or another text editor. Add the following code to the text file:RewriteEngine onRewriteCond %{SERVER_PORT} !^443$RewriteRule .* https://%{HTTP_HOST}%{REQUEST_URI} [QSA,R=301,L]
Redirect permanent / https://www.yourdomainname.com
Delete the 'www.yourdomainname.com' reference and replace it with the domain name for your Joomla site. Save the file and exit the text editor program.
Open the 'File Manager' application in your website control panel. Browse to the directory on your computer where you saved the '.htaccess' file. Upload the file to the root directory of your website. Overwrite the current '.htaccess' file if prompted to do so.
Browse to the administrative page for your Joomla website and log in as an administrator.
Browse to the 'Global Configuration' link on the main control panel page in Joomla. Click the link to go to the main Joomla settings page.
Click on the 'Server' tab near the top of the 'Global Configuration' page.
Click the 'Force SSL' drop-down box and select the 'Entire Site' option. Click the 'Save' icon in the upper right corner of the 'Global Configuration' page.
Log in to the Joomla website as you normally would. Because you changed the '.htaccess' file, Joomla will now redirect normal 'http' requests to the more secure 'https' log-in page.

How to Stream a WAV (6 Steps)

Upload the WAV file to your own server. Although you might want to stream a file that already exists online somewhere, doing so could cause the person hosting the file to lose “bandwidth” (the amount of data the hosting provider allows him to use each month) every time someone plays it. Login to your 'File Manager' and upload the file. Double click on the name of your file within the 'File Manager' to open it in a new tab or window.
Add an 'embed' code to the HTML of the webpage on which you wish to stream your WAV file. Hold down the 'Ctrl' and 'C' keys at the same time and copy the following code onto your computer's clipboard by highlighting it.
hidden=true>
.
Paste the embed code into the HTML file for the page on which you plan to stream your wave. Double click on the file name—'index.html,' for example—in your 'File Manager' to open the HTML editor. Click your mouse wherever in the page—under the main 'Header' but before the 'Links' section, for example—and hold down the 'Ctrl' and 'V' keys at the same time to paste the embed code into the file.
Paste your WAV file's URL into the embed code. Navigate back to the tab where you opened your WAV file and click your mouse inside your browser's 'Address Bar.' Hold down the 'Ctrl' and 'C' keys at the same time to copy the file's URL and then tab back to your HTML file. Highlight the text file.wav and hold down the 'Ctrl' and 'V' keys at the same time to replace it with your file's URL.
Set whether or not you'd like your streaming WAV file to play automatically by adjusting the value after
'Autostart.' By default, the code you've inserted will begin playing the file as soon as someone visits your webpage. Replace 'true' with 'false' (all lowercase in any instance) to change this.
Save your HTML file and visit your webpage to listen to your streaming WAV file.

How to Write a Sleepover Party Invitation (5 Steps)

Title your invitation with a clever phrase or catchy saying. Typically the title is used to explain the reason behind hosting a sleepover, whether it's a birthday party, New Year's or for the sake of just getting together. Think of the invitation title as a newspaper headline that is used to set the tone for the rest of the invitation.
Add all the necessary basic details such as who, what, when and where. The 'who' is the name of the child hosting the sleepover party. The 'what' outlines what kind of sleepover party it will be or if the party is themed. The 'when' outlines when the sleepover begins and also what time the children need to be picked up in the morning. The 'where' is the address and perhaps detailed directions for those unfamiliar with the area.
Advise the children as to what they need to bring to the sleepover party. Write this after all the basic details. For example, do the children need to bring their own sleeping bag and pillow? How about flashlights if it's an outdoor sleepover? Do they need to bring gifts or games? This allows the guests to properly prepare for a night away.
Outline briefly what kinds of activities and food the guests will enjoy at the sleepover party. This gives them some idea as to what other optional items they may need to bring. It also gives kids a chance to let the host know if they have any allergies to specific foods. If the sleepover party is a theme party, the activities will be coordinated in correspondence to that theme.
Include an RSVP date at the end of the invitation as well as the contact name and phone number.
