Marlena said she loves candles and was immediately drawn to the company because it is safe for children, pets and families. The decorative candle warmers hold wax melted by the heat of a light bulb instead of a traditional wick and flame.

A simple home based business with Scentsy Wickless Candles has been a dream come true for Marlena De La Garza. She started the business just over a year ago, without even hosting home shows, and she was still making money because the products sell so easily. Now, Marlena is a Director with the company, has more than 100 consultants on her team, and was selected as one of eight speakers at a regional fall meeting. “For the first time ever I am accomplishing things I never have before,” Marlena shared. “I feel extremely blessed to have found Scentsy and to be a part of such a wonderful company.” Marlena enjoys the recognition that Scentsy so willingly gives its representatives, and that it is easy to excel. “It is an exceptional opportunity and you can run the business how it works best for you,” she said. With more than 80 scents and 50 warmers to choose from, there is definitely something for everyone.

Now celebrating its fifth anniversary, Scentsy is a recognized industry-leading company. In 2009 the Direct Selling Association awarded Scentsy its highest honor available to young companies, the Rising Star Award, for its growth and commitment to ethical business practices. With more than 40,000 Independent Scentsy Consultants throughout North America, Puerto Rico and Guam, Scentsy is poised to lead the industry for the next five years and beyond. What began in 2004 as a simple idea has truly grown into something extraordinary, as Scentsy continues to touch thousands of lives in profound ways. Starting a Scentsy business is easy, just $99 provides you with $350 in products and everything you need to get started in the business. “Scentsy is contagious!” Marlena said. “I love being a part of a company with a family first philosophy.” To Buy, Host or Join Scentsy, contact Marlena on the web at www.scentsy.com/Prosper or by phone at 817-714-5520.

What to bring: Clothing and accessories in all sizes that are wearable and freshly laundered. Try washing your clothes with Green Works Natural Laundry Detergent and Green Works Natural Stain Remover, all of which are made up of at least 95 percent plant-based ingredients. The products are dermatologist tested and won’t leave a chemical residue. What not to bring: Avoid bringing any items that are ripped, dirty, stained, have a broken zipper or are otherwise unwearable. Inform your guests that all items that aren’t swapped at the party will be donated to a local charity. For many, the new year is synonymous with a new wardrobe, with closets stocked with the fruits of holiday sales. But with the economy struggling, many people are forgoing the new duds this year. In fact, a survey conducted by Cotton, Inc. found that 45 percent of people held back on buying clothing this year. Still, there are ways to refresh your wardrobe without breaking the bank. A thrifty, environmentally conscious and fun new trend may provide the perfect answer. It’s called clothing swap, and thousands of people are finding that it offers the perfect way for them to refresh their wardrobe. Rather than shop at a store, they shop in other people’s closets. Interested in hosting a clothing swap? Here are a few tips from Suzanne Agasi, founder of Clothing Swap, Inc. Step 1 - Get the word out Clean out your closets and get the word out about your clothing swap house party sooner rather than later. This gives your guests ample time to clean out their closets and find items to contribute to the swap. Three to four weeks in advance should be about right. In your invites, give your guests the following instructions:

Step 2 - Prepare for your party You can create a successful swap by designating different areas of your home for different articles of clothing or arrange them based on size. Set up different tables clearly labeled with sizes or type of clothing to encourage your guests to help you “organize” when they arrive. Step 3 - Serve up some tasty treats Light appetizers such as cheese and crackers, fruit, veggies and dip are great. Or, invite your guests to bring their own dishes and create a potluck event. Step 4 - Swap ‘til you drop Take home your favorites for free. Step 5 - Help a local charity If there are remaining clothes and accessories that have not been swapped, contact a local charity that accepts clothing donations. Step 6 - Feel great Enjoy new-to-you items and relish the fact that you’re being kind to your wallet, your closet, your community and the environment.
