"Oh, your house smells GREAT!!"

Thanks... I think it does too. In fact, I think I found my new favorite Scentsy scent; Go Go Goji. It's sweet but refreshing... think Tropical Drink.

It feels like it brightens up the house with positive energy. Crazy, I know but it does!!

Just like Honey Pear Cider make the house feel warm and cozy. I can't wait to put it back in my Scentsy Warmer once it gets cooler.

Aren't familiar with Scentsy?? No problem. WE will introduce you to your new addiction. Plus... I will give you some great ideas in a minute.

Scentsy Wickless Candles are decorative, ceramic warmers that use a LIGHTBULB to heat and melt highly-scented wax bars. So they are as safe as a lamp in your home and just as fashionable.

And, as a mother, I LOVE the fact that the melted wax in the burner bowl doesn't get hot enough to burn anyone. While it is melted, it's different than candle wax.

Want to see some images of cool warmers?? Here you go :


Zebra Full-Size Scentsy Warmer
$30.00 $27.00



Charity Full-Size Scentsy Warmer
$30.00 $27.00

Taro Plug-In Scentsy Warmer
$20.00 $18.00





Now that you have seen what Scentsy has to offer... here are some ideas:
  • Plug-in warmers make great night lights and work very well in the office or a dorm room (perfect gift for a student going away to college.
  • Med size warmers are wonderful in smaller rooms like offices or bedrooms. I love mine in the nursery.. it gives off a nice glow for baby and allows me to feed without turning on tons of lights
  • Full size warmers are a nice addition to your homes decor. From rustic to contemporary to Sports and Colleges (there's even MANLY SCENTS for the men in your life).
So if you are starting your holiday shopping early, or have birthdays coming up... stock up on some Scentsy product!! These are a fantastic gift for everyone. Plus, you can get a whole set up (warmers and scents) for UNDER $50!! Wow. That's a great deal and it will last all year long.

Want to know a secret... In the month of August, take 10 % OFF all Scentsy items. So act now!!

Photography Props

I love photos...

I have such a high admiration for photographers who are truly artist. They take something simple and make it beautiful. They capture moments words cannot describe.

& while I am not a photographer... I do enjoy it as a hobby. And I enjoy making props even more so. From newborn photo props... to senior portraits... to bridal and birthday!!

Here is a Halloween prop/ costume piece I made. It works for both Lil' Miss and Miss. It's a great piece to make you or your Lil' Miss' Halloween Costume really POP and stand out.

It's a one of a kind piece. I will take custom orders on these until October 25. If you are interested... please visit our facebook page - here or email us at krististone at onlyprettier dot net.

Taste Of Dallas

This past weekend was the Taste of Dallas, and Only Prettier's first show!!

We were so nervous. What if we forgot something? What if no one liked our things? What if we missed something up??

Being able to hide behind a computer screen or a boutique is easy smeasy compared to doing a show.

You are no longer introducing your product but who you are as well.

Thankfully, I forgot NOTHING. We had enough change.... and I don't think we missed anything up.

The show started Friday evening. Unfortunately, there was not much action for vendors.

Saturday, the show was much better... People really seemed to respond and look at our products. I didn't have a chance to walk around a lot... but from what I saw, we were very unique in our set up and our merchandise and I take pride in that. I am tired of everything looking the same and everyone wearing the same things.

Sunday made our weekend!! I was so excited.

When we, Lisa - Toe Ring Queen and I, showed up at the show on Sunday morning, one of the large vendors were breaking down their spot. I went over to inquire what was going on. They stated they were leaving. :(

At that point... my mind started thinking... I asked them if they would mind if we slipped into their spot?? Of course, they said no. So we did!!! That vendor had quite a large spot on a main aisle so I was stoked. Lisa, on the other hand, didn't want to move everything. So I reassured her I would and I did.

Within 10 mins of being in our new spot... she sold a few toe rings and I sold a few pretties!! AWESOME!!
We are now pumped up!! We learnt a lot during our first show and made a lot of connections. We cannot wait until our next show; Mansfield's Wurst Fest. So if you are local to DFW... come see us. Get some pretties and say hi <3

Lisa (left) and I right before it was time to pack up. We worked over 40 hours in 3 days.

 First booth on the first day. I liked how it looked. What do you think??
Outside view... I think this distracted people and prevented people from wanting to enter

Our AWESOME booth on Sunday!! Love how this looks. What do you think?

Since it was our first show... we are welcome all types of critique. Do you see something I could have improved on?? Do you like my burlap table cloth?? Help me be better for you <3

Prettier Ties

As a mom with two boys... I know how HARD it is to find cute accessories for them.

So... I am going to be doing ties. They are a fun way to spruce up an outfit and let your little ones personality shine through. Whether they are a pirate or a ROCK STAR... <3

Here are a few sneak peeks. Check out Only Prettier for more options and purchase.
