The Ritual of Fire

The Ritual of Fire

Fire has always been more than light—it is transformation, connection, and intention. From ancient rituals to modern self-care, candlelight symbolizes power, healing, and celebration. Whether illuminating altars, soothing the soul, or marking life's milestones, each flickering flame carries meaning beyond its glow.

Beautiful book store

Stories: Book Store

Step Into a Bookstore Without Leaving Home

Growing up in a military family meant always being on the move, but books were my constant companions. Whether it was a well-worn fairy tale or an old encyclopedia, I found comfort in the scent of printed pages and the worlds they held. That love of books—and the cozy bookstores that housed them—never faded. That’s why we created our Book Store Candle & Room Spray, a scent that brings the magic of a quiet bookshop into your home. With notes of aged paper, warm vanilla, and worn leather, it’s perfect for rainy days, late-night reading, and every book lover at heart.

Stories: Maui Gardens

Stories: Maui Gardens

Some places never leave you, they stay in your heart forever. For me, that place is Hawai’i. From childhood visits to my honeymoon in Maui, the islands have always felt like home. I’ll never forget standing on the lanai with my husband, wrapped in each other’s arms, as the sweet fragrance of plumeria blossoms filled the air. That moment of pure peace and romance inspired the Maui Gardens soy wax candle and room spray—a scent that brings the essence of the islands into your home. With notes of plumeria, jasmine, and fresh greenery, every breath takes me back to those warm, moonlit nights. Light the candle, close your eyes, and let Maui Gardens transport you to paradise.
