TRENTON — How would you like to make your own schedule, throw parties for a living and win tropical vacations in the process?

Don’t get jealous, but that has been the story of Tricia Wilkes’ life since she began her home decorating business two years ago.

Last month, Wilkes, a 37-year-old Trenton mother of three, sold $56,000 worth of candles and other home accents as a consultant for Home Interiors, North America’s largest direct seller of home decor products.
