Something is Smelling Good!

Oooohhhh, the mail today brought FUN!


These, my friends, are sample scents for Scentsy warmers. I LOVE these products! And I'm excited to be linking up with my good friend Susan's sister-in-law Kari Cole to host a little online Scentsy Soiree! (Already know all about Scentsy and want to get right to shopping? Just click HERE)

Never heard of Scentsy? From the company literature ... "Scentsy warmers use a low-watt bulb to slowly melt specially formulated wax. With no flame, smoke, or soot, the Scentsy wickless candle system is a safe way to enjoy more than 80 Scentsy fragrances".

I like them for quite a few reasons:

  • I don't have to worry about the cats or Owen knocking them over or touching them as the wax doesn't get hotter than what they use at a spa for a paraffin treatment
  • They are much safer than candles - as safe as a table lamp or nightlight
  • The wax lasts longer than candles; and they make my entire house smell wonderful!
  • The warmers look pretty and cast a nice glow
  • Scentsy wax bars are made in the United States
  • Unlike flame candles, no chemicals or lead are released into the air by melting wax 

This is a great time to do a little shopping; after all the holiday season will be upon us soon! Consider a Scentsy warmer as a gift for:

  • College students who can't have open flames in their dorm rooms 
  • Senior citizens or others residing in assisted living facilities
  • Teachers and troop leaders
  • Office, neighborhood, or club gift exchanges - the plug-in warmers start at only $20! 
  • That always hard to shop for person on your list
  • Babysitters, pet sitters, trainers, hair dressers, your mail person, assistants, or others you want to recognize at the holidays
  • Thoughtful housewarming or hostess present, or as a special thank you!

It's easy to shop and order ... just click HERE to go to Kari's Scentsy page and you've joined the party! And yes, it would be more fun if we were together, drinking a nice Moscato and sharing some cheese and crackers, but this online thing will have to do for now (unless of course you are a local friend and want to come on over - I'll let you smell the samples!)

The hardest part is picking which warmer and scents to choose! Maybe ...



So Christmasy but also perfect for Valentine's Day, or, if you're like me and have a thing for stripes - everyday. Pop a Whiteout (peppermint, golden apple and winter pine) scent bar from the Fall & Winter collection in that baby and happy dance. Bonus - this warmer is on sale! Check out the Close-Out Section for more great deals.



This one could go just about anywhere, in any decor. I think it's begging for the richness of Sentimental Cider (apple cider with allspice and star anise) or Pumpkin Roll (pumpkin pie surrounded by yellow cake, pecans, butter, and spice). Yum.








Men like great smelling things too - there are plenty of warmers that would look perfect in an office or study. Here's one for the golfer in your life; present it with a bar of Echo (spice, citrus, Mediterranean herbs and bitter orange) or Hemingway (ripe apples, sandalwood and cedar) from the Scentsy Man collection for a unique gift I'll bet he doesn't already have!




Wouldn't the light coming through those little stars bring such peace to a winter's night? Maybe a scent bar in Amber Road (red cedar, incense, vetiver and birch leaves) from the Seven Seas collection to evoke the miracles of a certain blessed night?







For small spaces and big impact. Grotto plug-in paired with a favorite, White Tea & Cactus - clean, crisp and refreshing.





So adorable! Paired with Sugar Cookie, Sticky Cinnamon Bun or Happy Birthday (all from the Corner Cafe collection) scent bars ... spot on gift for my sister or the baker in your life!



Kind of modern, kind of preppy, kind of perfect. And I love that shiny red glaze. Wonder if there's a candy apple scent ...



Ready for Halloween? How cute is this plug-in? And how about a Cocoa Clementine scent bar from the Corner Cafe collection to evoke a scent just right for trick-or-treating: orange-flavored candy wrapped in milk chocolate!








One of my hands-down favorite scents. Can't wait to have the stockings hung, the tree decorated, and the smell of Festival of Trees (fir tree, white cedar, musk and a hint of citrus) wafting through the house.



You can even put a warmer in your bedroom - and if you fall asleep without turning it off, no worries! Unlike a candle, it's safe to leave on all night. Scentsy has created a line of Romance fragrances; perhaps a little Love Story (jasmine, amber and dark chocolate) for you and your sweetie?



So precious for a nursery. The soft glow of a safe light, and the fresh, clean, powdery scent of Newborn Nursery from the Favorites collection.


Meet Sasha; a huggable buddy with a zippered pocket to hold a scent pak! Really fun idea for little ones in your life. Sasha plus Scentsy fragrances - think French Lavender, Just Breathe (love this one), or Be Still, all from the Spa Collection - can help promote sleep, calm a nervous child, or make a case of the sniffles seem a little more "bearable". Plus, Scentsy is donating 100% of the net proceeds from Sasha sales to Ronald McDonald House Charities. Nice!



Scentsy spreads the good scents through anti-bacterial foam too. This one, Coconut Lemongrass (Seven Seas collection) smells all coco-nutty and sunny like the beach - a nice way to fight off this season's germs and yuck bugs.

Scentsy also offers solid fragrances, travel tins, those scented cardboard disks for your car (or locker, or gym bag, or closet, etc) and room sprays.


I know ... there are so many choices!! There are warmer styles to fit any home decor and style; Asian, Western, Country, Sports themed, Holiday, Rustic, Contemporary - you name it. And of course many more delicious fragrances to select from.

Here's good news - you can combine products and save. For example, you can pick 1 full-size warmer, 1 plug-in warmer and 3 scent bars of your choice for only $55 (there are other combinations too). Spread the good smells all through your house! Or, choose a companion system like this one, gift the plug-in and one bar, then keep the full-size warmer and two bars for yourself (you deserve a little treat too!).

So go ahead - join my party by clicking HERE and take a look around. If you'd like to place an order, it's easy to do so online. Anyone, anywhere can order - your items will be shipped directly to you. Local friends and family - if you'd like, let me know by email (jkmechem@yahoo) what you wish to purchase and if we reach $150 in sales as a group we get free shipping and handling! 

That's it! Have fun ... and don't forget to check out the close-out section for great bargains!

NICE!!! I love the smell skinny dipping or something like that? Kari will remember the name. It has a fresh smell that works year around.

On my days at home, I drop in a square from a bar and it lasts all day long. Love it!
