Take-N-Make!

So, I will be hosting a Take-N-Make party at my home for family and friends next month. The idea was given to me by my sponsor and now I’m SUPER excited to get all the supplies, and set everything up! I definitely want to make some breath freshener, but some sensation oil was also suggested to me … and now I want to MAKE EVERYTHING!

So, now I need to do my research on gathering supplies in bulk, getting carrier oils, etc. Thankfully, the woman who runs our online group has some excellent suggestions for these. I’m a frugal person – I absolutely refuse to buy anything listed at full price if I can absolutely avoid it when it’s not food, or gas, etc. My clothing almost always comes from clearance racks and discount stores, my furniture and household goods are always purchased with coupons and discounts … so on and so forth. So, I really like how her list includes some thrifty finds.

What is funny is this will be an über busy weekend – which I try to avoid, but end up loving planning for. On that Friday night I have invited my studio students over for a movie and pizza fest, and then the next day will be the Take-N-Make followed by the Symphony, and then Sunday I’ll go back to my regular teaching schedule of lessons in the mornings and evenings.

Since I’m still relatively new to oiling and all that, I am really excited to begin my journey of ridding my life of products that don’t work, make false claims, aren’t natural, include toxins and chemicals, etc. What I absolutely love about the Young Living lifestyle is that everything is up front. The company owns and works its own farms, the company is publicly responsible, the company is ethical in its practices, and the company is well versed and expansive. I love the opportunity I have to make and create. I love that I can share this opportunity!
