Went to post my August recap and realized I was so all over the place in August that I didn’t post my July recap yet! If I knew then what I know now, I would’ve been working much harder in July to make more back stock to get ahead. You’d think I’d learn every year, but it’s yet to happen. Anyways stay tuned for all things fall from this point forward!

I know it’s 90 million degrees outside, but Evans Orchard and Cider Mill had me feeling all the fall vibes when I dropped off their order last week, and I left with 3 bags of apples too, so my mom is making apple butter to get us through the rest of the year. ✨

The number of labels I went through this weekend (yes I worked all weekend, with some help from Mike) to get these deliveries out this week is crazy. This wasn’t even all of them! Still, I’m thankful always for candle season, aka Fall.

Fall is back at Velvet Whiskey and so is Cinnamon Vanilla. Warm, cozy, and one of my favorites. This one smells like sweater weather, slow mornings, and that first sip of coffee on the porch. We’re working on manifesting cooler weather for September!

I just realized I posted the wrong thing for my May recap, in addition to having not posted June’s recap and July is almost over. This has been the weirdest summer for myself personally, and I feel like I’ve got the worst brain fog because of it. But onward we go! Here’s June’s recap, a big up from May that was filled with so many things and most of them not being candles!

Always obsessed with how a good candle just elevates a space instantly. Even better when it smells good too!

I think we should do an ugly candle sale! And by sale, I mean free with $10+ purchase! I’ve got some candles that are completely fine and smell amazing, they just have yellowed in the sun or are a little lumpy or they’re in a discontinued jar . There’s no use in them just sitting on my shelf and taking up space, and they still smell good so I might as well pass them along to you all!
-no guarantees on scent or size
-remember it’s an ugly candle sale, so it’ll be a little ugly but it’s free to you!
-must spend at least $10 to get free candle
-today through Monday July 6th!

Melon Basil is back baby! It’s sweet, herbal and straight up summer. On a personal note, I’m taking my tracking numbers to the next level and tracking how many whole watermelons and peaches I eat this summer. Not that anyone cares, but I looooooove watermelon so I’ll share that at the end of the season too if you want! 😂

Summer candles are here!

Summer candles are BACK, and we brought some new favorites along for the season!
Melon Basil is back by popular demand, and this year we're introducing two new scents: Fresh Limoncello and Cucumber Matcha.
