It Just Makes Scents

You all know about Scentsy and how wonderful it is...don't you?

If you don't already have this product, let me tell you a little about it. I have always been a fan of candles and aromatherapy. There is just something about things that smell good that make me happy. When my cousin gave me a Scentsy warmer a couple of years ago for Christmas, I really got excited (you might recall the episode where Cole broke that warmer and I wasn't very happy with him). It was like I could have a different candle every day. The bars are small and affordable enough that you can change scents whenever you want.

This is a product that doesn't have a flame, so there is not a fire hazard, soot or smoke. Really good for people like me who forget sometimes to extinguish my candles before heading out the door. Mr Emergency (Brian) also approves of its safety after seeing just how many homes catch fire from candles every year. It operates with just a small light bulb, so it's really family friendly. The wax doesn't even get hot enough to burn you if it spills-really great for people with small children like Cole who are in to everything! They even make small plug-ins the size of night lights that are great for bathrooms and other small spaces. There are other products like air fresheners for your car and room sprays too.

I have thought long and hard about how to bring in some extra money while staying at home. I can't go back to work because of Cole's health and it has left me feeling kind of like I am not doing my part. Let's be honest-graduate school and ambulance rides don't pay for themselves.

After months of wondering if I should get a job at night, do something online, etc. I have decided to be a Scentsy consultant. This is a product that I use every day and really love. I get so excited when I start running out of bars and get to order new scents. You can just order through the internet and don't have to attend a party to get new stuff. Here is the link to my personal website or you can call me. I'll mail everything to your house, you can come and pick it up, or I will bring it to your door. If you haven't already fallen in love with this company and their wonderful products, give me a call and I'll send you a catalog. Or if you want to have an excuse to get together with your girlfriends, I would love for you to host a party. This is a great gift for the upcoming holidays. That's how it started for me!

I've always kind of been wary of at-home business, but this is something that I have actually used myself for years and continue to get excited about. Hopefully I can make a little extra money so I can continue to stay at home with Cole.

I read your blog and I'm not family. ;)
I love the costume choice for Cole, so cute!! My heart aches for Cole, and for you, it must be so hard, you are one of the strongest people I know. I hope his new medicne helps him.

Oregon looks fun, I would love to go there one day, if we ever do I'll be sure to give you a call, so you can tell us what to do.

Congrats on becoming a Sentsy consultant, I love Sentsy!!! Now I have an "in" ;) (It's just easier to order when you know someone.)

You have my business! I love scentsy and I haven't been too fond of the lady I've been ordering from. I love my burner, but even more, I love the the room sprays for my classroom. You'd be surprised at how stinky 2nd graders can get!

Niki thx for the info on Sentsy. I have never heard of them back here in Fl. I have recently been going to Partylite Candle Shows since David's daughter just started her business. Keri and I both had parties to help her out. But Sentsy do sound interesting and I would like a catalog, please. I am so excited for you to do this and hope and pray you have good success and fun, bless your heart.
