(Guest post from Closer to Lucy)

For a few days now I’ve been asking you to head over and “like” this yummy recipe... Well the likes as I’m sure you’ve figured out are really votes.

As a rule I don’t post for everyone that asks…but this woman is on a mission!!! She’s even teamed up with one of her friends to offer a giveaway to encourage you to do it!

Here’s what Jill has to say about Scentsy…………..

If you aren’t familiar with Scentsy, or have not had a chance to try it yet, you have been missing out. Scentsy, Inc. was founded in 2004 and is today one of the fastest growing companies in America. This company is all about safe scent. Unlike candles, that use an open flame to warm it wax and give off it’s scent, Scentsy has designed wax warmers, which use the heat from light bulbs to melt the scented wax.

Scentsy markets over 80 of its own brand of scented waxes for use in its warmers.

While the warmers ar a huge part of what they have built their business around, Scentsy also markets scent paks, which are small square scent sachets, scent cirlces, which are similar to the cardboard car air fresheners we are almost all familiar with (remember those tree shaped things everyone hung from their rearview mirrors years ago?), and scented room sprays. All of these come in some of the same scents that you can buy for your wax warmers. Since we are all getting ready for back to school, I chose to focus on these for my review.

The first product I used was the scent circle, but I wanted to do something different than just hang it from the rearview mirror of my car and call it good. I decided to see where else I might be able to use this. My first thought was to hang it in the closet. Not a bad choice, since it was strong enough to scent the entire closet and leave just the lightest scent on my clothes.

I also found it was a good option to use these between your garbage can and trash bag. Who needs the new scented garbage bags when one of these will do the trick and save you a ton of money by letting you buy the plain old unscented ones. Another place I see these being useful is in a diaper pail. I personally do not have babies in the house, but it would be a great little extra for that part of the nursery. But for my back to school idea, I liked the idea of using this in the book locker at school. It’s perfect to keep the small space smelling fresh along with the sweater, coat, scarf, mittens, etc, that will get stored there all day while your child (or you) are at school.

The scent pack was a perfect product for the gym locker. No one want to get the immediate rush of “sport scent” (read sweat) when they open up that locker. The scent packs are perfect to stuff into the stinky sneakers or just hang inside. I have used one in my walk-in closet at home and had it last for over 3 months before changing it out. These would add a nice scent to the towels kept in the locker for those showers after practice or the game too.

Finally I looked at the room spray. These make perfect teacher gifts, but they are also good for freshening up the car and removing the inevitable fast food snack smell that permeates the car as you run from school to the game or practice. I also like it for quickly freshening up the entrance way to the house right before your kid’s friend’s parents show up at your door to drop off/pick up their child from your home. At the very least they can think my house smells good!
