Only a few more days until Valentine's Day! It is the perfect time to give away a candle. I love giving away candles for Valentine's Day. Last year I gave one of our Greeting Card "I Love You" candles away. The person I gave it to loved it. I never know what to get guys for Valentine's Day. They have it easy. They can give us women flowers, cards, pretty much anything. Men are harder to get something for.
A candle is perfect. You can give them an "I Love You" cinnamon candle and it sends the message without being too mushy. They have a great fragrance too that isn't too girly. I love them!
Here are some other ideas of things you can give your Valentine this year.
* A massage
* A home cooked dinner
* A new shirt
* Their favorite dessert
* A vacation
* A night out on the town
* A piece of jewelry
* A gift certificate
* A little shopping spree
Let me know if you have other ideas to add to the list and I'll post them! Happy Valentine's Day next week!

Recognition from Kohl's
Today we had two visitors from Kohl's come to see us. They presented us with a Vendor Accuracy Certification. This was quite an honor. They said we are the 19th vendor out of the 24 vendors that have received this certification. They said that we are in the top 1% of vendors that ship to them. We were excited to receive this recognition. They also told us that about 24 out of 3,000 vendors have received this certification.
We have been shipping our candles to Kohl's for years. This helped to strengthen our relationship with them. Our production team is doing an excellent job! We would like to thank them for all of their hard work and dedication.

New Candles and Candle Tips
Good morning!
It is another freezing day in Utah! It is so cold here. The high the other day was 10 degrees Fahrenheit. I can't remember it being this cold!
Anyway, it has been busy at For Every Body. A group of us went to the AmericaSmart trade show in Atlanta, Georgia last week. We have a permanent showroom there. About 75 percent of our showroom was new. It was a great show! Our most popular lines were our Tea line, our cupcake line (Tiny Tempations), our chocolate line (Divine Chocolates), and our Wickless line. We were surprised. We thought our floral line would be more popular.
I received a comment yesterday about some of our new lines that are not available on our website. They will be available by the end of this month. Our lines are so new that we don't have a supply of everything it. If you would like to order something that is not on our website before the end of the month, please call 888-377-2494 to talk to one of our customer service representatives.
Here are a few candle tips to help you enjoy your candles longer. Let me know if you have any others!
1- Trim the wick before lighting each candle to about 1/4 inch in length.
2- Keep the wick trimmed to 1/4 inch each time the candle is relit to reduce possibility of smoking or sooting.
3- Do not burn in a draft or near a vent.
4- Keep the wick centered. Do not burn the candle if the wick is not centered.
5- Do not allow the flame to touch the side of the jar.
6- If flame smokes, extinguish and trim wick before relighting.
7- Do not pick up or touch during or shortly after burning.
8- Never burn a candle on or near anything flammable.
9- Do not burn the candle more than 2-3 hours at a time.
10- Place the candle on a flat, dry, fire- and heat-resistant surface, away from any drafts or flammable materials.
Have a wonderful day!

Tori Schmanski's Trip to China
Tori Schmanski flew to China today with her parents to receive advanced treatment that she cannot receive in the United States. Her story is heart breaking. In June 2005 she was in a terrible car accident with her sister and cousin. Their car rolled. Tori's cousin and sister were able to escape, but Tori was trapped in the car. She was trapped under water for about 20 minutes before she was rescued.
Tori has suffered from a brain injury ever since the accident. She stayed in the hospital for nine months and has been in and out ever since. Before the accident, Tori was a dancer at dance studio called "The Dance Club" in Orem, Utah. She was very bright and everyone around her loved her. This accident changed her and her family's lives. Now Tori is dependant on her parents for all of her care. She communicates with her eyes, but is not able to speak.
Tori's trip to China gives her family hope. Tori's mother would like to see a smile, and Tori's father hopes to see some of the old Tori back from the treatment.
For Every Body created a candle line especially for Tori. Each candle has a picture of Tori on the front. All of the proceeds are donated to the family to help pay for her medical bills and treatment in China. Candles can be purchased at www.pray4tori.com or at any of For Every Body's outlet locations in Utah.

Merry Christmas!
Merry Christmas! Only five days left! I love this time of year. Everyone is happier and more giving. It is a fun time.
Our food drive at Smith's Food and Drug was a success! We collected 1,294 food items ( 1,056 cans and 238 other food items) and $143 in cash for the Utah Food Bank. We were excited that so many people were willing to give. We were planning to be at Smith's on Saturday, December 16 from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. We had so much success on Saturday that we decided to do it on Monday, December 18 too.
Fox 13 News came and interviewed me on Saturday and aired it that night at 9 and Monday morning. We were excited that so many people were involved. Some people were so generous that they donated large bags full of food and did not ask for a candle. They just wanted to donated to the Utah Food Bank. One lady bought a $50 Smith's gift card so they could buy what they needed. I was impressed at the willingness to give.
We had a lot of success for our first food drive. We'll definitely do it again next year! Have a wonderful Christmas and New Year's!

Christmas is in the Air!
Hello!
Christmas is in the air! There is snow on the mountains and everyone is getting ready for Christmas! I love this time of year when everyone is happy and busy thinking about everyone else. There is something special about this time of year that you don't see at any other time.
It was another great week at For Every Body. We had a giant sale at our outlet store this past weekend. It was fun. I helped at the store during the sale. Hundreds of people came! It was awesome. We sold more candles and more people came than we have ever seen before.
It was a great sale. We sold some of our large 26 oz. candles for only $2! People were going crazy! It was fun. The sale is great because it helps our customers get gifts at extremely low prices every year before Christmas. So it not only helps us, but it also helps them too.
Have fun shopping and getting ready for Christmas!
