This morning I was putting my basket together of Holiday Gifts... I've been creating gifts with my Hand Creams and Herbal Foot Creams. They make sweet gifts, and a lot of time people don't have time to get the little gift for their girlfriends ... or husbands for wives ... or children for teachers.
I stopped at out local Goodwill Store last night on the way home with Laura. I have found a lot of wonderful things for displaying my products at Holiday Gift Faires .... remnant sizes of pale green satin, gold satin with brocade roses, glittery silver leaves ... all wonderful items that enhance my display. I found a beautiful wicker basket that had been sprayed gold. Using the gold brocade fabric, the clear dotted paper, the colors of the gloves and slippers -- wow! can anyone resist purchasing these fantastic products?!? LOL
I love this business! Our mentors teach that we have a Gift of Arbonne ... and I'm finding in many ways that we have lost some of the arts that I grew up with ...
I was taught by my Nana and my Mom that handwritten Thank You notes are always in order after you have received a kindness. A present, a ride to the car shop ... all small expressions of kindness that truly deserve thoughtfulness in return. Do you remember how you felt the last time someone left a small gift on your desk -- and it was your birthday, or you were feeling down -- how it brightened your entire sense of well-being?
As I balance my business with other areas of my life, I'm finding that the Gift of Arbonne isn't just about the products -- my products that I love! -- but it's about the Gift of Giving Yourself ... that is truly the Greatest Gift of All.
With love, joy, happiness and peace to you and your loved ones ...
