Meet Emily. Emily and I have known each other (in the internet sense) for several years. She’s an Independent Scentsy Director. What’s that mean? It means she knows her crap!

Are you familiar with Scentsy? Bascially, Scentsy = smelly candles without the fire hazard (or am I the only one that can’t remember to blow those suckers out?).

(Prancer, the warmer of the month…10% off, in case you need it)

One time I really really REALLY needed an aqua colored warmer. I guess it had been discontinued? Emily found me one and had it on my doorstep in a couple of days.

They have these cute little new plug-in warmers, too…so you don’t lose any counter space. Heck, you don’t even NEED counter space!

Scentsy also has stuffed animals.

WHAT?!?!

(That’s what I said, anyway.)

Emily sent me one to sniff sample. You put a scent packet thing (total technical term) in the back and zip it up.

Bennett thinks he’s the boss of our frog (named Turtle), but he accidentally left it in my room the other night and the experience was quite pleasant. When I was awakened by BC’s RLS approximately 387 times, at least I had something nice to smell!

Emily also sent me a DIY warmer.

I’m going to fancy it up with my Silhouette and post the results later in the week.

So what’s in it for you?

Emily is going to be giving one lucky Crap I’ve Made reader:

A Scentsy Buddy: A cuddly companion for children of all ages. Each Buddy features a zippered pocket to hold delightful Scentsy fragrance. Just insert a Scent Pak and watch him (or her!) come alive with scent. From Roarbert the Lion to Penny the Pig, every Buddy needs a friend! Adopt a Scentsy Buddy for the child in your life (or the child in you). For children ages 3 and up.

You can adopt your Scentsy Buddy at http://scentsybuddy.com! They also have some fun games and downloads for your child. So cute!

And, she’s going to be giving another lucky Crap I’ve Made reader:

A Full Size Warmer* and 3 pack of Scentsy Bars of your choice: Make a statement in any room with over 60 full-sized Scentsy Warmers to choose from! Unique Scentsy warmers use a low-watt bulb to melt specially formulated wax slowly, maximizing its fragrance time. With no flame, soot or wick the Scentsy wickless candle system is a safe way to enjoy more than 80 Scentsy Fragrances.

*excluding the Patriot Collection, the Campus Collection and Charitable Cause Warmer

I’d like to introduce you all to Rosie from RHB Designs. Rosie and I go way way way back…like when I only had 2 kids. Rosie makes and sells hand stamped jewelry.

I’ve actually owned one of Rosie’s necklaces for a couple of years, and I love it.

We actually bought one of these for Keller’s Kindergarten teacher for Christmas a few years back. That woman was a SAINT (27 kids in her class, 18 of which were boys). She deserved a gold medal, but this was as close as I could get.

Look:

Those are checkbook covers. I’ve had making one on my to-do list for so long it’s not even funny. (And by “so long” I mean “almost 2 years”…which is when my sister gave me a FABULOUS wallet for Christmas that I still haven’t used on account of needing a checkbook for all things school/kid related.)

Need somewhere to put that checkbook cover? Check out her bloom bags.

She’s got flowers for hair:

And flowers for just about anywhere:

You really need to pop over to her shop and take a look because every single thing is my favorite.
