Message from our Latest Member - Brenda Bradley
Hello, my name is Brenda Bradley. I live in West Laurel. I have been married for 14 years to my husband Pete. We have 3 kids. My daughter Seneca is in her first year of middle school (how did that happen so fast?), my son Garrett just started 3rd grade, and my youngest Dylan started 1st grade. My hobbies are scrapbooking, women Bible studies, refinishing old furniture, shopping and eating chocolate.
I have 2 home based businesses. I am a Southern Living at HOME Consultant. We offer beautiful products for decorating, entertaining and organizing your home. I help women bring the pages of the Southern Living magazine to life in their home. I also help women start their own businesses with Southern Living at HOME. The company has several ways to make money and some incredible incentives, from free products to free trips to free cars to freedom to decide your own schedule to wonderful friendships.

My second business is a Skin Care Consultant with Artistry. We have amazing anti-aging skin care products, in my opinion the best on the market. Artistry even has products that are comparable to a face lift and a chemical peel but much safer for your skin and much less expensive. Artistry partners with Nutrilite to provide a high quality line of vitamins and supplements, diet and sports nutrition, weight management and energy drinks. Please visit my website at www.bbradley3.qhealthbeauty.com.
I look forward to meeting you at the next meeting. I will be sharing some of the products from Southern Living at HOME that are new or on sale this month and I will be giving away a product in an extra raffle.
