Last Winter I was 2.5 months postpartum with little Violet. I was easing/adjusting into a new role of mother (and new role as wife...honeymoon baby). Slowly I stockpiled and prepped batches of candles (in between naps, library visits & meal prep) and took on a whole month of markets.
During the Queen City Market, I chatted with people about my goods and some of the comments stuck with me. Several folks sniffed their way through the line up of candles on display and mentioned how they really aren't "candle people" however they absolutely love the scents that I've curated. As a maker, feedback like this is so appreciated. Even the die hard anti-rose and anti-lavender people walked away with my Bulgarian Rose or my Lavender scents. Secret: a touch of Vanilla is added to my Lavender oil and Bulgarian Rose is so unique you can't say no...
