✨LAST CALL FOR OOPS + LIMITED EDITION CANDLES
Our Oops + Limited Edition Candles are almost gone! These boxes are filled with perfectly imperfect candles that may have a cosmetic imperfection, an old label, or another little quirk that kept them from making it onto our regular shelves.

If you’ve been meaning to grab some, this is your last call before they’re gone! Order online and we will ship to you or pack up for you to pick up.

Congratulations to the dream teams at Rookwood Pottery and Placed Interiors on the launch of their beautiful one-of-a-kind lamp collaboration. The collection is truly stunning, and we were so honored to play a small part in helping celebrate such inspiring work.

For the launch, we created two custom candle scents with Placed Interiors, each hand-poured into a handcrafted Rookwood Pottery vessel that can be enjoyed long after the candle is gone.

Scent I: Bergamot and coriander open with a bright, aromatic freshness before giving way to creamy santal, warm cedar, rich amber, and soft musk for a refined, wood-forward finish. Made for everyday rituals, from slow mornings and quiet afternoons and for spaces that feel thoughtfully curated.

Scent II: Cardamom and rose are layered over rich amber, creamy santal, labdanum, and oud, creating a warm, layered scent with subtle spice and lasting depth. Light when the table is set, good company is on its way, and you want your home to feel effortlessly inviting.

You can find both candles exclusively at Placed Interiors, and you can preview the collection on Rookwood’s website.

Summer days are here🌞

Need a break from the heat? Stop by our shop to cool off, browse our Summer Collection, or spend the afternoon making your own candles in one of our candle making classes.

You’ll also find thoughtfully curated, handmade goods perfect for summer travel, picnics, hostess gifts, birthdays, and everyday gifting. Plus, we’re still adding to our Oops + Limited Edition Sale while supplies last.

Holiday Hours: We’ll be closed this Saturday, July 4, and will reopen Sunday from 12–5 PM. We hope you have a safe and happy holiday weekend!

Tomorrow is the Tusculum Street Fest! We are so excited to see everyone celebrating our amazing neighborhood!

We’ll be giving out a free Manitou tote bag to the first 5 people to make a purchase at our shop (starting when the fest starts at 3pm). And, we know you likely won’t want to carry candles around with you at the fest, so don’t worry — we’d be happy to hold onto your purchases and you can pick everything up the next day or anytime the following week! We still have lots of sale candles and we’ll take great care of them while you enjoy the fest!

Parking will be limited due to street closures, so please plan accordingly! Cheers to a fun day in

Did you know our Oops + Limited Edition candle sale is now available online?

We’ve added mystery boxes to our website, making it easier than ever to shop these deeply discounted candles from home. While you won’t be able to choose each scent, we’ll do our best to curate your box based on your preferences - just leave us a note at checkout.

This is our biggest Oops + Limited Edition sale ever, and with some exciting changes ahead, it’s also the last time we’ll be doing the sale quite like this. 😅

Thank you for helping give these candles a second chance. We’re so grateful for your support.

🕯️ Shop online while supplies last. Once they’re gone, they’re gone for good.

Our Oops + Limited Edition Candle Sale is winding down, but we’ve made a few updates you won’t want to miss:

🕯️ Deeper markdowns on all sale candles
🕯️ New bundle deals on top of this further discounted pricing
🕯️ Mystery boxes are now available online

We’ll still have plenty of sale candles available in-store, so stop by and fill a box with one-of-a-kind finds at incredible prices.

Shopping in person is the only way to handpick your candles. If you shop online, we’ll curate a mystery box for you. Let us know your favorite scents, and we’ll do our best to include candles that match your preferences.

Thank you all so much for supporting this sale. We love seeing these perfectly imperfect candles get a second chance, and we’ve even added a few new ones along the way — so even if you have already shopped the sale, it may be worth another visit.

Once these candles are gone, they’re gone for good. We don’t plan to host another sale like this anytime soon.

Shop mystery boxes online via the link in our bio, or visit us in-store while the sale lasts:
— Wednesday–Saturday: 11 AM–6 PM
— Sunday: 12 PM–5 PM
