Spring has sprung!

Even the simpliest treasures look better when dolled up!

I took some basic Fragrance Talc & Skin Softners and glammed them up in pretty floral gift bags. Something nice, even if it's just a treat for you!!

Some pink bunnies hold key chains. 

Are you traveling this spring?
This pretty little rose egg holds TSA approved travel day & night cream with a coordinating cleanser. Spring skincare looking spiffy!

The new Avon Lifestyle magalog has a beautiful lantern/vase with great rope detail. You could change the fill with the seasons and as long as it's a flameless candle, have fun in any season!

The bunny gets a close up! Smile!

The next time you have a special occassion like a BFF Birthday or Baby shower consider how the packaging will tie into the fun of opening even a simple bracelet. I love Pinterest for ideas on crafting little tags, bags and wrap. What's your favorite way to gift???

Bloom Out & About! Pajama Program Delivery!

So grateful for all the generous souls that made our Pajama Program Campaign a tremendous success! 550 Books went to DAIS, Madison, WI for children impacted by domestic violence.

 Such important work being done for women and their families.

A sampling of your amazing donations! So many chose to give a gift of a book that meant a lot to them! Harry, Dr. Suess, Golden Books...so many great stories!

Donations of 38 pair of Pajamas and almost 1100 books went to The Salvation Army Shelter and After School programs! 

One more delivery to go! I still have a dining room with Cartons!!
Thanks again for a wonderful program! I am humbled by your spirits...

Working for children who need a good Night...Can you help?

Every 4th quarter my little Bloom Biz chooses a non-profit to work with and celebrate our abundance during the past year.

This year we are honored to work with the Pajama Program!

This 501(c)3 collects new Pajamas and new Books for distribution to children at risk.

Many of these kids have never enjoyed the bedtime ritual we take for granted.

The security of a warm pair of Pajamas and a story told by a parent or loved-one at bedtime is not their routine.

Did you know that the average age of homelessness in America is 9?

If you have a local chapter and can make a donation, please do so!

If you'd like to help my campaign and aren't in the Madison, WI area, you can donate too.

will gladly accept your gift.

Thank you for your support and for thinking about a donation.

We are so blessed!

Happy Holidays to you and your family as we prepare to share a feast next week.

I'll update you on our progress here and I'd love to hear your comments below.

Warmly,  Valorie

You are a generous group!

A call for help came from a friend that works at a local Food Pantry. More calls were made to you, my lovely clients.
My Van hit the road and collected all you offered...
The result...serving many families and distributing your goodies in just hours.
Thank you so much!

Thank you so much!  Val

"Catherine's" Boutique Fashion Event!!

 On Saturday I traveled back to Catherine's in Madison, WI to work with a lovely group of staff and models for a Dress Fashion Show Event!! We laughed, ate Red Velvet Cupcakes and played with the new ZENERGY color Collection for Spring! The Aqua, Coral and Citrus palette worked so well with their beautiful clothes.  New tricks and tips on Eyes, Nails and cheeks were shared with all. Thank-you, Reyna and Becky for inviting me and introducing me to your lovely models!!

Bloom team Celebrates!!

To properly Thank my team for their support during the truly long, 26 week process of Training Leader, I invited them to a celebration!  We had a really nice time!!!

We ate Pizza, chattered and got to know each other!  The group had some amazing questions and was able to share some great tips about their individual businesses.

I had set out some supplies for a variety of topics like Fundraising, Leadership, Customer Search, PRP and more. They each went home with a folder of additional info and a lovely gift bag which included a Jon Bon Jovi Unplugged for women, a cute guitar pin and a lipgloss along with some samples.

We had a wonderful time and I'm looking forward to seeing everyone again in March.

Thank you, most sincerely, for all of your encouragement and support!!

I do appreciate each of you!
