This week’s assignment:

“Since I’ve been making you work really hard on the previous Memoir themes I decided to take a little break, and do something fun!

This is a Christian-run home party plan with beautiful, affordable home decor. I was an active Designer for several years and made quite a good nest egg from just 4-5 parties a month. HGP offers one of the highest commissions in the business, and the support and training are outstanding!! I no longer have time to do parties :o( , but I’m still signed up because I love the products so much! (I still have people calling me to order candles – they are that yummy.) The link above will give you lots of info & help you find a Designer in your area. This is the perfect time of year to start with Christmas just around the corner – people love being able to shop from home, and there are no extra shipping costs when ordered through a party! Bonus: right now you can sign up for half price!! (p.s. Since I’m not active, I don’t gain in any way from the link above. I just love this company & the Godly principles it was built on, and hope it might bless someone else too! Feel free to contact me if I can answer any questions.)
