Scentsy Giveaway!

Hello, hello all! Usually I have a drawing for those who attend any given craft night...well, now is your chance to enter even if you don't attend!

Megan (who is a Scentsy Independent Consultant) has contacted me and was kind enough to offer this generous prize for the drawing/giveaway. The prize is a Full Size Scentsy system - which is 1 full sized Scentsy warmer of your choice plus 3 Scentsy bars in your choice of scents. How great is that!!

For those of you who don't know about Scentsy (you are totally missing out) here's a little bit about them. Scentsy is a company that focused on aromatic candles, but it's not just any ordinary "candle". This "candle" is a decorative warmer(s) with wax melted by the heat of a light bulb instead of a traditional wick and flame.

Who hates to light their candles only because of the dreaded smell after you blow them out?-- I do!! When I received a Scentsy system as a Christmas gift, I literally tossed all my candles out. It is a spectacular system! I love how easy it is to change the scents with my daily moods. I honestly use mine everyday.

Okay so now you are thinking, "I'm sensitive to smells" well, there's hope for you! There are many, many, many different scents to choose from. Some of them strong and some of them mild. You can burn them for as long or as little as you like. I have heard of several people that are sensitive to smells, but they have found success in finding their favorite, enjoyable scents.

BTW- the warmer to the left is currently my favorite!!! And the Home Sweet Home scent is burning as we speak....as I type!

Okay, okay, enough about the fabulous free gift, lets hear about how to enter!

Here's what you need to do: Comment below telling me which warmer is your favorite - check out the options {HERE - http://www.meganbourne.scentsy.ca/ }. You must do this in order for additional entries to count.
