We are getting ready this season with a new unique collection of wedding décor and favors.. we are integrating the theme of the wedding into Hurricane candles and centre pieces, art work and more. This theme will also be woven around the wedding favors for guests to take back as a memory from this special wedding… The whole world is turning green and guess what, we are ahead of the curve and already Green ! J We want everyone to have a chance to bring in a piece of nature into their bedroom’s, living rooms or even work spaces.. Eco friendly wedding favors are in and these favors are in the same spirit as they are reusable…Our favorite part about helping in a wedding is being able to absorb the energy, excitement and love being experienced by the couple and transforming it into something exquisite.. We want the bride to remember the experience of planning her wedding to be an enjoyable as being in it. We have recommended the bride to be to have the henna designs on her hands to be transformed into an art work or even a hurricane candle, whose patterns that will stay longer after the henna stains from her hands and feet fade away.. The start of this collection has been magical and we are expecting that this collection to be a huge success!

The new wave in candles….

The past few months have had us thinking on ways to enhance our collection to meet the aesthetic demands of our customers and also how to innovate such that we can add fragrances to the candles without burning them down. Inspired form the “Candles are Forever” collection is our new collection of “Hurricane candles”. These Hurricane Candles are made of a special kind of wax that is tolerant to heat, thus enabling us to adorn these with henna patterns, Swarovski crystals and other colored gems. They come is many different sizes and shapes thus suiting the varying demands of our customers. The highlight of these candles is that these are hollow thus allowing us to place different votive or tea lite candles in them to be able to modify the fragrance to suit the mood. This collection helps retain the original beauty of a burning candle and simultaneously preserves the decoration on the candle. The picture displayed is of our first Hurricane Candle with a modern pattern of leaves and birds. It has a lavender fragrance tea lite candle burning inside it which is giving it a vibrant glow! It almost looks like a little lamp. We feel with this new line we will be able to blend in the timeless nature of our candles with endless possibilities in fragrances. Calling all candle lovers to try out our invention or visit us at the Urban Street Bazaar coming up this weekend at the Bishop Arts District to see our entire collection!

Vacationing at home


Many a time I find myself scavenging through numerous websites trying to find that perfect vacation destination with that prefect deal… I even tried to entice some friends for a road trip to make the dollar go further J.. After number of hours spent on the web and countless emails exchanged with friends it was looking like none of the deals exist and that everyone has clashing schedules. I was determined to vacation ...This is what I did.. blocked weekend off from my social calendar planned to spend some quality time at home enjoying it with the luxuries of a hotel and simple pleasures that a usual weekend blocked with social commitments doesn’t allow...I used some aromatic candles in the hurricane shells we had recently created for the living room to give it a nice chic look, booked a massage, marinated some fish for a BBQ by the lake. It was perfect ....I realized that sometimes all you need is a free weekend relaxing at home sipping on some delicious wine by the warmth of a fireplace to create the perfect vacation !
