We didn’t take this decision lightly.
We’ve always tried to be as transparent as possible with our customers, so I wanted to share a small change to our candle pricing.
For the past three years, we’ve worked hard to absorb increases on nearly every material that goes into making our candles—from wax and fragrance to jars, packaging and everything in between—without passing those costs along to you. This fall, another significant increase in freight costs finally pushed us to a point where we could no longer maintain our current candle prices without compromising somewhere else. And compromising the quality of what we make simply isn’t something we’re willing to do.
Effective today, September 2, our 8 oz., 16 oz. and 24 oz. candles will increase by $2. For now, pricing on wax melts, room sprays and car fresheners will remain unchanged.
Even with this adjustment, we’ve worked hard to keep our candles priced well below what you’ll often find for comparable hand-poured, locally made 100% soy candles. More importantly, we remain committed to making them the same way we always have—with quality ingredients, careful processes and a whole lot of hands-on attention here in our little Olympia shop.
I’m incredibly grateful that after all these years, I still get to make something that finds its way into your homes, gets wrapped up as gifts, burns at your dinner tables and becomes part of your everyday lives. I never take that for granted. Thank you for continuing to support this little business and allowing us to keep doing what we love.
And on a much more fun note—we’ll be OPEN next week! Come see us Thursday, September 10 from 3:30–7:30, Friday, September 11 from 11–4, and Saturday, September 12 from 9–2. We have Heirloom waiting for you, returning fall favorites, ceramic pumpkins and a few other things I’ve been keeping under wraps.
As always, please reach out if you have any questions. I’m always happy to answer them. 🤎
