Margaret - ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I was not even a candle person

"I literally cannot get enough of this candle. The first one I got was a gift from a neighbor and I honestly thought, “ok, a candle...”, BUT NO. This candle has turned me into a full blown candle person. The scent is incredible - bold enough to know it’s there but not too feminine or masculine - it’s what you wish every other candle was. Don’t thin

Our Eco collection is true to its name, too. These soy-wax candles are hand-poured in recycled vessels to make every corner of your home green. And once you're done, you can recycle even further by repurposing our Eco vessels for other uses throughout the house!
