• ’ “Scentsy products are beautifully crafted and easy to use; they’ll enhance your life with fragrance. Scentsy began with a simple idea; a safe, wickless alternative to scented candles. No flame, no soot, they are powered by a lightbulb. There are tons of awesome scents to choose from and they can be changed daily if you choose.” These candles are a great gift idea for family and friends! Most importantly 20% of the profits made from this fundraiser will help benefit THON!’
