January Auction Parties

I'm having so much fun gearing up for the Auction parties I'll be doing the last 2 weeks of January. I still have a couple of dates left open if you want to get in on the fun:

• I'll bring the refreshments (host provides beverage)
• All guests get FREE shipping!
• Guests earn auction money during the party & then get to bid on some great prizes at the end
  

Whew! I've got a lot of prizes to get ready for the upcoming auctions & am looking forward to having a blast right alongside the party guests!

Where in the world is Gold Canyon . . .

KENYA!

Wow! Check out these pictures & video from my recent trip to Kenya where we had fun with taking pictures of a Gold Canyon Cucumber Melon candle. And if you want to see more pictures and hear details from our trip to Africa, visit us at miliusadventures.blogspot.com

Delicious Fragrance Recipes

Thought I'd share this tidbit and candle fragrance recipe shared in our recent demonstrator e-mail from Gold Canyon. Enjoy! And if you want to recreate it, but don't have all the fragrances yet, you can order on my website or by contacting me directly:

Scent Blending Recipes are carefully selected recipes of individual candles that when burning together, create their own unique, blended scent experience.

To maximize your fragrant experience, use the exact sizes and quantities noted in each recipe – a slight alteration can be like adding salt when you needed sugar.

FIRST: Arrange the candles on a heat-safe surface with the largest in the middle and smaller candles interspersed throughout. For votive and tealight candles, use a holder to protect the surface.

SECOND: Place each candle approximately two inches apart in your arrangement.

THIRD: Light each candle and let the aromas mingle for at least 30 minutes to create your new fragrance experience.

Featured Blend: Off to the Tropics! Send yourself on a tropical island vacation with this mix of sweet pineapple, tropical vanilla, coconut and pear that creates a breezy fragrance of pure island bliss! 6” Pineapple Cilantro 12 oz. Tahitian Tropics Vanilla Coconut Lime Verbena tealights (2) 5 oz. Juicy Pear

This is just such a great deal. I do have a couple of spots still available during those 2 weeks. So, if you want to get together with friends for a fun time to view the brand new spring catalog and get a great deal, let me know right away.
