I’m totally in love with fall weather and all the fun activities that come with it. How about you? 🍂 And guess what? Tastefully Simple is celebrating the season with a limited-time product that’s sure to be your new pumpkin obsession. Check it out below!

But that’s not all—fall is also the perfect time to host a Tastefully Simple party experience. I’ve got a whole page packed with ideas, and this month, the rewards are twice as nice with DOUBLE Host Rewards! 🍂🎉

And if you’ve been thinking about starting something new, now’s your moment! Did you know that the next 3 1/2 months are the busiest and best for sales? If you’re looking for a fun way to add a second income stream, consider getting started with the Tastefully Simple family!

New 2024 Fall Winter Catalog

It is here!  The Tastefully Simple Fall Winter Catalog.

I can testify that the new products are AMAZING!  Our Conference was Aug 1 – 3 and we got to sample many of the offerings.

Another twist to this seasons catalog is that the totes we have are in the back of the catalog and are half price, while supplies last.  Great idea for a gift with a few food products tucked in.

Here is a link to the catalog on my TS website.

Below is the link to a special page I created so you can easily see the new items.
