New Adventure

Things have been quiet lately because of a lot of changes I have made in regards to work.  I don’t like to talk about my job on here (mostly because I know some past c0-workers read, hi guys!), but we decided about six weeks ago that it was time for me to quit.  Lot of reasons went into this decision, but bottom line is we both thought it was best for our family moving forward.  Not really much else to say (can you tell I’m sick of having to defend myself?).  My last day was a couple weeks ago and instead of taking a break, I decided to jump right into a different opportunity that will be more flexible and be based on what I want it to be.  I was looking for something that can be done around our schedule rather than us trying to always do things according to my work schedule.

I am now an Independent Scentsy Consultant and I’m BEYOND excited to join this company.  I officially signed up last Thursday and the amount of training and resources I have access to already is unbelievable.  I also have an amazing sponsor/director and have been introduced to a team who has welcomed me with open arms.  So one week in and I’m already super impressed with what they have to offer! 

If you’ve never heard of Scentsy before, here’s the short story…it started with the idea of a wickless, flameless alternative to candles.  You start with a warmer that works with the heat of a light blub to slowly melt scented wax bars.  Over the past several years, the company has grown tremendously and they have now added a Layers line (home and body products that use the same scents), plus they have come out with other companies that sell fondue products (Velata) and purses, jewelry, and accessories (Grade Adele).  I’ll be focusing on just Scentsy Fragrance for now.

I went to a party a few years ago and bought two plug-ins for our bathrooms and several wax bars.  I also received another plug-in and more bars last year as a gift.  I love Scentsy because:

• I switch out scents all the time!  With 80+ scents, there’s plenty to choose from.
• I choose how strong I’d like the scent to be – I always start off with just one block.
• I select warmers to match each room’s décor instead of having a ton of barely used candle jars all over my house.
• Wickless, flameless, sootless!  Great, safe alternative to candles.
• It’s the perfect gift for the someone who has “everything”.
• The wax bars are affordable at just $5 each!

I’ve been busy planning for my launch party, which is this weekend, so I’ll be sharing lots of DIY projects in the next few weeks.  I love that I’ve been able to incorporate some crafty skills into this venture! 

Here’s to  new beginnings!
