Today I thought I’d share a couple of things I love— Thirty-One products and my Young Living Essential Oils!
Thirty-One Bags for Organization
I love my Thirty-One bags to help keep me organized. Here are several posts I’ve written that showcase how I use them for homeschool organization and business organization:
How I Organize Homeschool Curriculum with a Bag
The Fold-It-Up Organizer (pictured above ) is one organizational tool I carry in my purse. I actually put my 5 oz. travel size essential oils in the plastic zipper portion, carry information and business cards in the right-hand size and keep a pen ready to jot down any ideas I might have while out!
Essential Oils
I rely on my essential oils to help keep my family healthy. I also use them to make many homemade skincare products.
Most of my oils we use for specific uses, not because of how good they smell — or don’t smell 
(essential oils are different from fragrance oils.) There is one essential oil though, that I like to use like a perfume and it is called Abundance. This essential oil is a blend of the following oils:
Orange (Citrus sinesis), frankincense (Boswellia carteri), patchouli (Pogostemon cablin), clove (Syzygium aromaticum), ginger (Zingiber officinale), myrrh (Commiphora myrrha), cinnamon (Cinnamomum verum) and spruce (Picea mariana).
It is not sweet or flowery. Just nice. How’s that for a great description?
I have a diluted bottle (meaning I add a carrier oil such as almond, olive, jojoba, with a few drops of the essential oil into another bottle) of Abundance that I roll on behind my ears and on the base of my neck. It makes me feel good knowing that what I’m applying to my skin is natural and can have helpful benefits too. There are no synthetic components added like store-bought perfumes can contain.
