Meet the Spring Candle Collection

  I'm soooo thrilled that one of my favorite collections of the year is here! Except let's be honest, I always say that. I literally could not be any more biased. But whatever, right now I'll say it's my favorite (until next season)! As we dive into the warmer seasons and away from the chill of winter, it's nice to get away from those cozy, winter candles and into something different. This collection is the perfect blend of fresh, floral, fruity and fun!  Fresh Flower Market One of my first jobs as a teenager was at a florist, and I stuck with that career for a few years - it was also the first business I ever opened!

Galentine's Day Gift Guide

Don’t forget your pals this February! What’s better than a candle for a Galentine’s Day gift?! Give the Valentine's Day Duo to one lucky gal pal, or split it between your two besties! Two candles, one discounted price! Looking to splurge a bit? Gift them our Candle of the Month Club (available in 3 month, 6 month or 12 month subscriptions). Want a year-round scent instead? Pick up Calm, Cool and Collected - a lavender, sage and rosemary blend. And yes, it's just as delightful as it sounds. I know it's still January, but order now so you don’t have to buy something last-minute! You'll thank yourself (and me) later! xoxoValery

Step one: The “first burn” should be for several hours (we recommend 3-4 hours in one sitting), so that the wax melts all the way to the edge.Did you know that wax has a “memory”? A long, consistent first burn...
