We’re going to be a little vulnerable for a minute. 💛

We poured our hearts (and a whole lot of wax 😅) into getting ready for the blueberry festival this season, and honestly… it just wasn’t as successful as we had hoped. Between supplies, prep, booth fees, and inventory, we’re now sitting on a large batch of extra candles that we need help clearing out.

If you’ve ever wanted to support our little family-run candle business, now would mean the world to us. Every purchase truly helps our family and allows us to keep creating new scents and collections for future events. 🫶

Keep an eye out for our overstock posts this week!! Local pickup in thonotosassa or can possibly meet up.
