Party Palettes

Carol Duvall Show : Episode CDS-137 -- More Projects »
Carol's guest, Debbie Giampapa, talks about her clever and utilitarian "Party Palettes," which were inspired while attending a party and trying to juggle her plate and glass as she went through the buffet line. These party trays allow guests to eat, and yet easily hold their plates, cups, glasses, and utensils without a struggle. Debbie simply punched out a part of the plate to serve as a holder for the beverage container.

Debbie's product enables the user to pop out the area where the glass or cup will go, and then save the cardboard punch-out as a "business card." Debbie's company and contact information is on the back of these normally discarded pieces. This is a great way to recycle, and also an effective, easy advertisement for Debbie's product.

An added benefit is that the trays can also be personalized, and a variety of themes are available, such as sports, Christmas, and other special events or holidays.
