Where Have I Been? !

I haven't been posting much lately. My life has been consumed, with a new adventure I am embarking on. However, I am back to blogging and I am looking forward to sharing with you all, as I punk down this unknown road.

I have started selling candles. The company I choose to sell, is called Partylite. They have numerous products, not just candles. There are so many things I love about this particular brand of candles. The scents that are available are vast. Not only do they sell the candles, but they sell candle holders, in hundreds of different styles. Some are whimsical and romantic and others are trendy and sleek looking. That is what drew me to this particular company.

I do enjoy selling Partylite Candles. They are expensive though, and that is a draw back. However, I have been a candle lover for years, and never have I found a better burning candle and especially ones that come in all different sizes and shapes, . In all the different scents and colors. That is what sold me on them.

The main picture on the top of my blog now, is called “Ruby Red Hurricane” . I chose to design my blog around the Christmas theme, because they have a wonderful catalog that I am drooling over, that is especially designed for the Christmas season. With the bright season just around the corner, I am trying to get organized and ready for the whirlwind.

Now, don’t misunderstand me, this blog isn’t going to be all about Partylite, but… since it has become such a big portion of my life, I will mention it from time to time. If you are interested in purchasing a product, hosting a book party, ect. Please let me know.

I am scared about starting my own business. I’ve only had one show so far, and it was fairly successful. I have to *Put* myself out there, so to speak, and it scares the wits right out of me. On the other hand, I am looking forward to cultivating my OWN business and seeing if I can get it to flourish and grow.

So, join with me and help me celebrate my new endeavor!
