Our story starts 15 years ago when I met my husband. He bought me all kinds of candles because he knew that I loved them. He bought Yankee, Aspen Bay, Salt City and numerous others. The average cost was around $20 each and this adds up quickly when you love them so much. About a year ago we ran across a Company that sold highly scented hand poured candles in 16 ounce mason jars. The packaging was not fancy, but when you lit them they released such wonderful and strong fragrances. We had finally found a candle we could afford and that put off lots of fragrance. We think that you to will love the quality and strong scents of these simple candles.
