HELLO 2018

Good morning candle friends.  I hope everyone had a lovely New Year!  Thought I'd pop in to share something that I've been obsessed with the past few months or so. 

Creating color palettes!

Its a great way to catch a glimpse of the overall look that I want to achieve and it all starts with the tiniest single drop of dye in soy wax.  While I love every color color schemes I've created for Valentines Day I must say that my favorites are the ever traditional reds and pinks.

I've been in a happy valentine's day mood all morning, pouring hearts and roses and fragrances that make my home smell like a perfumery.

happy valentine week!

I can't believe sunday is the big day already..

this year we added our new kiss floating candles to the site

super cute set of lip shaped floating candles

 and our rose bud votive candles are made in a soft light pink color..not just the red.

these are a bit larger than a standard votive

another new color for an old favorite.  

red pig shaped candles.

owls are just the cutest trend out there!

and you can get a set of 3 valentine inspired owl shaped candles...

I hope you have a wonderful valentines day filled with a ton of love and snuggles and kisses and a good book by the fire and long walks in the park and yummy food!

you can check out all of these candles and more valentine candles on our site glowlitecandles.com or in our etsy store.

i hope you are all having a wonderful day

it's been a busy january in the candle making shop

figured i'd pop in and write up a blog post before things got too crazy here....

which is strange for my color senses

 raspberry screams red-ish to me, 

 but alas....it's purple

not just roses 

piggies too

we have a great selection of valentine candles this year

New Item! Floating Heart Candles

Valentine Day is a sneaky holiday....,  there I am recovering from Christmas and BAM!  February 14th is right there staring me in the face I haven't poured a single valentine candle.

But this year, oh this year I have it covered.  I started pouring hearts and roses way back in November
I'm stocked and ready for all those lovers who need candles for the big day.

I've been pouring reds, pinks and whites in deliciously scented black raspberry vanilla .  The studio smells amazing and even a few neighbors stopped in to ask what I've been up to.  

After watching them pick through the bins I noticed they grouped several of the hearts together and decided that was how I should offer them to you guys.

So here ya go,  A set of 3 hearts in the colors of the season.

Update:  I received a few emails inquiring about the glass dish and where to find them.  That is an old Bath and Body Works three wick candle jar that I cleaned out and removed the label.  I added raspberries and some silvery picks from the floral department before filling with water and placing the candle.

and yes, these candles fit in to the tall cylindrical vases from Michael's craft store.
