Cricket Hill Candles

Happy Monday, candle friends! Leaves are changing, the air is getting crisp and cool and that means the true start of candle season! Are you looking for a cozy candle to bring fall into your home? I suggest Fall Farmhouse, it's my personal favorite and what I have under my candle warmer lamp right now. A perfect blend of pumpkin, cinnamon and clove with just a hint of fir. So cozy! We will have the full fall and holiday lines at the Midlands Holiday Arts and Crafts show on November 7-8. Come see us at the market

Happy October candle friends! We just wanted to share something exciting with you today. We've been thinking a while about our packaging and doing a little upgrade. So, after many talks with vendors and making mock ups, we have finally gotten our new boxes! These will be for the small candles only, since we are phasing out the large ones. What? Yes friends, we will still carry large candles in the online store but we are moving to just one size at markets. Those large candles are discounted right now to $25!

Anyway, new boxes, we love them! They will make their debut at the Midlands Arts and Crafts Holiday show on 11/7.

Report on today's market...we had such a great time today! It was wonderful to be back in "market mindset". Our big sellers today were the melts and the warmers! Every market is different so when people ask us what sells best, the answer really is 'it depends". Today's favorite fragrances were white linen and mandarin cranberry (both classics). We will be back in November at the State Farmer's Market. For now, off to sleep

Happy Tuesday, candle friends! I've been watching the weather lately, hoping for a cool down and it's coming this week! So excited that it's just in time for our market at the Swingin Purple Door on Saturday! Just a reminder, all large candles are priced to go at $25 and we will be running our normal market specials of buy 1 get one 1/2 off for candles and buy 4 get 1 free for melts. We can't wait to see you on Saturday!

I spy with my little eye that Fall fragrances are now out in the world and active in the store! I've had our Fall Farmhouse wax melt jars under the lamp since Monday and it smells so good!

Our first event of candle season is coming up! We will be hanging out with our friends at the Swingin Purple Door on September 26 from 10-4. We will have Fall and Holiday fragrances available AND the special price on the large candles. This will be a great time to get started on your Christmas List❤️

Hey candle friends, our 16 oz candles are on sale at Palmetto Fine Arts & Custom Frame Gallery! That's a large candle with a burn time of 80+ hours for $25, so stock up for Christmas. This price reduction will also be coming to Swingin' Purple Door in Lugoff and is already live in the online store.

🕯️ Bigger Candle. Same Price! 🕯️

Cricket Hill Candles (cricket_hill_candles) is phasing out their 16 oz candle size, which means you can snag a great deal while our inventory lasts!

We’ve reduced the price on all remaining 16 oz candles — now you can get a 16 oz candle for the same price as a 10 oz!

More candle. More of your favorite fragrance. Same price. 🤎

Once our 16 oz inventory is gone, it’s gone, so stop by Palmetto Fine Arts and stock up on your favorite scents while you can!

Limited to scents currently in stock.

Summertime for us is a time of thinking back and also thinking about moving forward. With that in mind, we are going to be making some changes, especially at markets. We have run all the numbers and figured that the large candles just don't move at markets. We totally get it! That's a big investment for something you may end up not loving.

So candle friends, we will still have large candles on the store, and we will be bringing them to markets until we sell out. Look for a sale on the big candles probably in the fall as we attend more markets.

Also, please check out our displays at Swingin' Purple Door in Lugoff and at Palmetto Fine Arts in Chapin! We are so blessed to be a part of these fabulous stores where you can shop local artists and craft people.
