I am excited to announce that Isabella Catalog ( www.isabellacatalog.com) will be selling my Strawberry Lemonade candles! This candle is made with organic strawberry flavor oil & organic lemon essential oil and smells AMAZING! It transports you to a warm front porch, surrounded by friends and beauty, sipping refreshing & fulfilling, natural lemonade with fresh strawberries. Each candle is made in a re-usable, sturdy, 8 ounce glass that can be filled (after your candle burns out) with the lemonade you make from the included "secret" lemonade recipe! YUMMMMMMMMMMYYYYYYYY!!!!!!! |

Thank you, California, for a warm welcome to the California Gift Show! I was in the LA Mart/Beckman's West division and the response was wonderful! So many retailers are switching from synthetic fragrance and petroleum based candles.....it is wonderful! Not only am I excited that business is booming, but I am so glad that more non-renewable resources are being saved and less toxins will be filling the air! A great big thanks to my new clients! You can now find my 100% natural soy candles (for real 100%, not 100% soy and then added toxic fragrance like most candles! |

 They're back! Customers were going nuts awaiting the return of my massage candles and I am happy to say, they are back! I had decided to remove them until I had labels that were worthy of the candle. Vintage Paper Boutique has designed just that and I am proud to introduce my amazing, natural, nourishing, perfectly warm massage candle with its new, apothecary vintage style label. As always, there are NO SYNTHETIC FRAGRANCES, PHALATES or Foreign Materials in The Perfect Massage Candle. |

Thanks to product placement in season 2 of Portlandia, I was honored to be able to attend the premier last night. It was fun to see my company up on the screen, visit with the actors and get a sneek peak of the season. But alas, despite a free flowing, hosted bar and ample food, I couldn't wait to get back home to kiss my children goodnight and cuddle up in my warm bed! |

I just found out that the wonderful woman, Jackie, with brain cancer , that I have been colaberating a fundraiser with Chinaberry Inc./ Isabella to help ease her medical bills..........Is healed! Her scan came back free and clear! How awesome is that! To raise funds I made a candle that Isabella named Believe. It was filled with essential oils shown to promote concentration, belief and hope. Buyers were encouraged to say a prayer or meditate as they lit the candle everyday. |

How exciting it is to see my candles on other websites, in catalogs and in stores! Even more exciting is the fact that people are converting to sustainable, petroleum free, foreign material free, synthetic fragrance free candles! I want the world to be healthy for a very long time. Just thinking about the here and now doesn't work for me, especially since I have children so everyday I am reminded of what the future may bring. I know that candles are just a little start, but how wonderful it would be if everything were sustainable and not petroleum based and full of toxins? |

I am very pleased to say that I now have pillar votives available! They are so much fun to make and, since they don't come in a container, you can use your own favorite containers for these natural soy, essential oil & essence candles. You do need containers for these or else they will melt all over. I have been experimenting with large pillar candles and tapers and wow, I have a whole new respect for those who succeed at this art form! My large pillars aren't so hard to make, it's once I burn them that the fun begins! |
