Does it SMELL like Spring at your house?: Scentsy with Mindy Review/Giveaway

I hate to have a smelly house.... and when you live on a farm that is hard to avoid.  During the winter the house smells because we are all crammed in a little house, and so you would think I would welcome spring.... I do!  Really, I love spring when it warmer and the kids can go out side and play.  BUT when you live on a farm there are certain smells that lay dormant during the winter, but raise their ugly heads as it starts to warm up.  
You want a list?  
  • the COWS!!!!  -sorry but they do smell!
  • the cows poop  -smells worse than the cows!  LOL!
  • the dead cow pile!  -what else do you do with the cows (and deer) that die?  The pile is  pretty far from the house... in fact I have never even been to it... but I can smell it if the wind blows just right.  
  • the silage   -the ground-up fermented corn you feed the cows
  • the machines
  • the irrigation water
Pretty smelly list huh?  Don't get me wrong, I LOVE living on a farm, but I would be much happier if these things smelled like flowers or clean diapers!  So how do I live with the smell?  I don't -  I mask it!  
I have a Scentsy warmer sitting on my piano.... I keep all sorts of scent bars and I can have a house that smells like Clean Breezes or Welcome Home (which is a personal fave!).  My kids love to turn it on too.  It is really easy it has a little clicker thingy on the cord and they turn it on whenever they sit down to practice piano.  Changing the scents is super easy too.  I just dump the hot wax out in my trash-can... then it smells good too!  hehehe  Then I wipe it out with a paper towel and then put in some new squares.  


They have a bunch of really great scents... you can see them in the Scentsy catalog.
They have also come out with a few new warmers since the last time I was at a party.  
They have a little Plug-in warmer that is great for bathrooms!  
They have an adorable Mid-size warmer that I would put in my kid's rooms!
Then they have the traditional Full size warmer which I have, and LOVE!  


So now that we have introduced you to the yummyness of Scentsy let's talk about Mindy Farmer.  I simply adore Mindy...Mindy is a cloth diapering mama and she has been so much fun to get to know.  She is fiercely devoted to the brands of diapers she likes and she is always suggesting my cloth diapers to a mama with questions on twitter.  
I simply adore her blog too!  The Inquisitive Mom is a personal yet informative blog!  I truly love to read her musings!  Here, check out this post about a day in the life of a kiddo!  It made me stop and think about the things I say to my kids.


Mindy enjoys selling Scentsy, she says she loves the flexibility. "I am able to make my own schedule, which works great with being a SAHM. I also love selling such an amazing product that I can stand behind."
She has a monthly special too and this month it is: 

  • receive 1 Free Plug-in Warmer in addition to Hostess Rewards! Basket and Catalog Parties are included in this offer! This is also a great time to book a party to introdue the new catalog that came out in March! (Hostess receives free gift at the close of a qualifying $150 Party)

Now honestly $150 isn't that hard if you get 5 friends to order with you.  These also make awesome gifts... I have a friend that bought all her family a warmer and now for future holidays she can give them more bars of scents and she has it covered.  Brilliant right?  


So Mindy is offering us an awesome giveaway!
