Each year, our parent company, Norwex, hosts a three-day extravaganza where Independent Sales Consultants can learn all about new products designed to help families reduce chemicals in their homes and help them live more sustainably. At Conference, Norwex Consultants are recognized for their achievements throughout the year, and they receive tools and training to help grow their businesses, too.
One of the most exciting things about Conference for Consultants is that they get the opportunity to see the company’s Mission in action—and nowhere is this more apparent than at the Norwex Movement booth. The Movement booth has been a fixture of National Conferences since 2015. This year the Movement booth featured ways to reduce, reuse, repurpose, refuse and recycle as Consultants answered the question, “How well do you know the 5 Rs?“

Many Norwex Consultants took a break to help create Norwex Cares Disaster Relief Kits. More than 2,000 of the kits were created on-site to benefit families and organizations that have experienced a disaster or trauma such as a flood, fire or tornado.

National Conference 2017 was only Nora’s most recent appearance. Over the last year, she’s been featured at the Denver Zoo, the U.N. Ocean Conference, the Jack Johnson 2017 Summer Tour and the “All At Once Campaign,” as well as Oregon’s 50th Anniversary of the Beach Bill celebration. In between appearances, she can be seen at The Washed Ashore gallery in Bandon, Oregon’s Harbotown Events Center.

We have always been into recycling in our home, but it’s fun to learning how to repurpose things. You can never learn to much!
Thanks Stacey, we totally agree!
I re-purpose plastic shopping bags by making crocheted shopping bags with strips of plastic cut from the original bags. Have also made wine bags, jewelry bags and other small bags to carry small items in a purse. Cheryl
Cheryl, that’s wonderful! Look for an upcoming blog about a lady here in our office that is doing something similar!
I really enjoyed the Norwex Movement booth this year at conference!! it was a great visual!! I missed the wristlet though, but I was wearing my one from last year the whole weekend. It was so fun making the disaster relief kits at conference too. It would be fun to have consultants and friends get together and make more….maybe something we can have districts or teams do if they want. We will always need more of them made.
I love re-purposing items!! Always fun to see other peoples ideas for re-purposing!!
I love the focus on not just recycling, but also on re-purposing and refusing packaging, etc. Seeing this at conference reminds me to be conscious of my choices!
Became a member yesterday, and can’t stop reading this awesome articles.. I feel like I need to catch up on everything!
Looks like it was a great conference!
We need to do a better job and repurpose more. Great article!
