Thank you to all who joined my Mystery Hostess Party and shopped from the comfort of their own home!  I'm excited to announce THREE lucky Mystery Hostess!!  They will each get $20 in FREE Close To My Heart Products! ****WINNERS**** Rachel Boudrow Mandy LaCroix Vicky Roeger Be watching for another chance to join a Mystery Hostess Party!  Don't want to wait?  Be your own Hostess today!   Call me and book yours today.
