Something to hand over at the door — or to leave behind in a new place that does not smell like home yet.
These are the candles people buy when they are invited somewhere and do not want to turn up empty-handed. Clean, grown-up scents that suit a house you have not seen yet: herbs, citrus, lavender, coconut, sandalwood. Nothing loud, nothing that fights with dinner cooking in the next room.
Under $30 covers the gift-boxed keepsake and the 12 oz jars. Around $40 gets the dried flower bowl, which sits on a warmer and never needs a match — a safer bet for a rental or a home with small children. $65 is the wooden dough bowl, for a housewarming you want to be remembered for.
Every one is hand-poured by me in Kitchener, Ontario. Free hand delivery in Kitchener–Waterloo, free shipping across Canada over $125.
