candle crush vol. 1

If I could afford it everyone in my life would be getting a mailbox full of candles right now! Here are five candle shops I’ve been loving recently.

twisted honey candles | @twistedhoney.co

I’m so glad Bria Schmalhofer’s lovely shop appeared in my Etsy recommendations this week. Every scent combination sounds luscious, like prosecco + pink raspberries and gardenia + grapefruit. And how gorgeous are these yin yang color combinations?

bella coola candle co. | @bellacoolacandleco

I just started following Tresyre Nash’s beautiful work, and I’m especially smitten with the one of a kind series. Check out this repurposed glass vessel and this seashell version. There are lots of yummy fall scents available too, like pumpkin spice, orchard stroll, chai latte, and sweater weather.

bell + thread | @bellandthread

I was introduced to Anna Ng’s work through this mooncake candle set on Instagram, and have since been so enjoying following along with Anna’s creative process. Give @bellandthread a follow and check out these stunning terrarium cactus candles, pastel star candles, and little flower candles.

cosmic grounding | @cosmicgrounding_

Each and every Grecia Alfaro creation is a delicate, intricate world! I’m mesmerized by all the work in the fall collection, like a bowl of gratitude and falling for pumpkins. Alfaro also makes wax melts and bath salts. I am eagerly awaiting the next drop!

yui brooklyn | @yuibrooklyn

I’ve been following Yui Kobayashi for a while now and I love seeing everything she creates! Check out these personalized cake candles, big flowers, and two-tone tulips. Her studio was recently flooded during Hurricane Ida, so if you’re able, here is the link to help her raise funds to restore her workspace.
