Candles

Awakened souls: our animal series

Anatole France wrote the iconic line: "Until one has loved an animal, a part of one's soul remains unawakend."  In this series of candles, we honor those creatures who make our lives better on so many levels.

It was a pleasure to burn...

Ray Bradbury wrote the opening lines of Fahrenheit 451 more than 70 years ago, but he predicted so many things about our lives today.  While he didn't predict our current president, his line speaks to how you will feel when your burn this candle.  This orange citronella candle will actually do something helpful--ward of bugs and make you feel better about life as you watch the wax drip...

Vanitas Candle Tableaus

In the 16th and 17th centuries, Dutch painters created vanitas paintings as a way to explore the brevity of life and inevitability of death.  They often featured skulls, books, fruit or flowers, and a candle.  Our vanitas candle tableaus have all of that in candle form!  You can create your own from the candle offerings (fruit, books, a skull, flowers) or we can put one together for you!
