March Madness!

There are so many great things to share for this month, but I'm going to start off with a simple Warmer/Scent of the month post, mostly because it's just too cute to keep quiet any longer!

This month's warmer is not a warmer at all, but an adorable duck Buddy, Wellington!  He is snuggled up in a removable sunny yellow rain slicker, ready for whatever weather might come your way.  Remove the hood to reveal the cutest little tuft of hair on top of his head.  I love him!

The scent for this month is Sunlit Morning, and it's such a beautiful spring scent.  Wake up to warm rays of sunshine. Experience the brilliance of a spring morning with juicy lemon and bergamot, white flowers, and a pinch of earthy sage. I love this scent, and because of the type of scent it is, it's one of our longer lasting scents, so use it sparingly!  I managed to get several days out of half a cube in our main bathroom.

Remember, both Wellington the Duck and all forms of Sunlit Morning are on sale this month for 10% off.  These would make a great addition to any Easter basket.  

Another Sneak Peek...

Next month, Scentsy is introducing several new warmers, some new scents, and a few entirely new products to the catalog.  My favorite of the new items is so absolutely adorable and I think beats what they've done in this line in the past.

Baby Buddies!

Will March go in like a lamb and come out like a lion or will it be the other way around?  Either way, all eight adorable buddies are available in baby size starting in the new catalog.  They're so stinkin' cute and I know will make great Easter basket stuffers!.  

Transition Time!

Oh, February! I have so much love for this month!  There are so many great things happening this month, leading up to even better things next month!  I have lots to share, so I'll try to be quick.  Bullet style, it is!

• First, on a purely personal note, I added a "Follow me on Pinterest" link in the right sidebar.  I am a bit addicted, but I actually do try to use the pins I find, at least some of them.  ;)

• February Online Mystery Host Party is posted!  What is a Mystery Host Party?  Anyone who places an order online during the month of February will be entered to win the host rewards for all the online orders of the month. If there are at least $150 worth of orders placed online, I will draw a name from all of the orders placed online.  Standard rewards will be awarded.  Get your friends and family to order online to up the number of rewards to be awarded!

• February scent of the month is Pixie - A mischievous moonscape of pink pepper, mandarin, and heliotrope, deepened by exotic teakwood and vanilla oak.

• Also this month, Scentsy is introducing ScenTrend, the latest trend in fragrance.  The ScenTrend for 2012 is Pink Pepper, found in some of the scents available (such as Pixie) but also a great addition to some of the scents available (such as Love Story). Fruity, floral, and feisty Pink Pepper is a comforting yet contemporary scent—and the latest trend in home fragrance.

• February's warmer of the month is Flutterby - Conjure the magic of the first green signs of spring with Flutterby. Fanciful butterfly cutouts cast delightful shadows on the wall when lit.  I love the simplicity and beauty this warmer offers.

• As mentioned in the title, February is transition time.  We're clearing out the old with a 10% discount on everything except Combine and Save packages and licensed warmers.  Many items (mostly holiday, but some others, too!) have been placed on the discontinued list.  This is always my least favorite part of transition time, but I'm comforted by the knowledge there are bigger and better things to come (I can't wait to share the new catalog!).  Transition time is also one of the best times to join!  During transition time, new consultants receive testers from both the old catalog and the new catalog at no extra charge!  

• Discontinued items at the end of this month include two buddies (Pookie - the holiday buddy, and Sasha - the Charitable Cause buddy), 22 full size warmers (Blizzard, Bluster, Caldera, Scentsy Cream, Delta, Fright Night, Full Court, Gingerbread, Jolly, Lotus, Maize, Menorah, Merry Berry, Milano, Paws, Pinecone, Prancer, Silent Night, Socorro, Tannenbaum , Torino, and World Cup), two mid size warmers (Little Lamb and Over the Moon, both from the nursery collection), and eight plug-in warmers (Bloom, Fright Night, Gingerbread, Rust, Silent Night, Snowday, Snowflake-Red, and Weave-Scarlet).  Snapshot does appear in some lists as being discontinued, but Scentsy has confirmed that Snapshot will make a return, even though it will not be featured in the new catalog.  The holiday warmers and buddy may return, but the others are discontinued. There is a deeper discount after February, but once they're sold out, that's it.  

• The scents leaving the catalog at the end of the month are listed below. Some of these scents may return in the Fall/Winter catalog but I have no way of knowing until August rolls around which scents will return and which ones are axed for good.  I know I'll be stocking up on Flutter and Honey Pear Cider this month.  ALL BRICKS are being discontinued.  

Autumn Stroll	Cinnamon Vanilla	Eskimo Kiss	Pumpkin Roll
Autumn Sunset	Clove & Cinnamon	Festival of Trees	Sentimental Cider
Black Ruby	Cocoa Clementine	Flutter	Shades of Green
Central Park Pralines	Comfort & Joy	Honey Pear Cider	Silver Bells
Christmas Cottage	Cozy Fireside	Pima Cotton	Snowberry
Cinnamon Bear	Embers	Pumpkin Marshmallow	Spice Bazaar
			Whiteout

Sorry for the information overload!  I'm going to break this into two posts.  Be on the lookout for another post pertaining to the new products that will soon be available as well as a few sneak peek photos! I can't wait for the new catalog, though I am sad to see some of my favorites going away. 

As always, don't hesitate to let me know if you have questions.  I'd love to help!  

Have a scentsational day!

In Rememberance...

These heroes are dead. They died for liberty – they died for us. They are at rest. They sleep in the land they made free, under the flag they rendered stainless, under the solemn pines, the sad hemlocks, the tearful willows, and the embracing vines. They sleep beneath the shadows of the clouds, careless alike of sunshine or of storm, each in the windowless Place of Rest. Earth may run red with other wars – they are at peace. In the midst of battle, in the roar of conflict, they found the serenity of death. I have one sentiment for soldiers living and dead: cheers for the living; tears for the dead. — Robert G. Ingersoll

Enjoy the holiday. Honor those who have served and are serving.  Remember with great love and pride those who gave everything they had to give us everything we have.

“It is the soldier, not the reporter, who has given us the freedom of the press. It is the soldier, not the poet, who has given us freedom of speech. It is the soldier, not the agitator, who has given us the freedom to protest. It is the soldier who salutes the flag, serves beneath the flag, whose coffin is draped by the flag, who gives that protester the freedom to abuse and burn that flag." — Zell Mitchell

Mother's Day

Mother's Day is fast approaching, less than two weeks away!  Visit the Scentsy Buddy page and have the little ones color a picture for Mom!

I will be able to spend this Mother's Day with my fabulous five-year-old.  We have no plans as of yet, but I see possibilities of shopping, park visiting, and dining out for that day. 

How will you be spending Mother's Day?
