I’m looking for a space to hold candle making classes. This space must have power outlets and room for ten students minimum. Ideally it’s located in Aurora, Parker, or Centennial, but I will consider other locations. Please let me know the address, picture of the space, and rent per hour.
Last Chance at Park Hill
We’ve mentioned before that you can get Painted Lantern Candles at Park Hill Treasures, but here’s the catch: our lease ends December 31, 2022, and we are not renewing. Park Hill Treasures is a wonderful place to shop, and it was a great collaboration. Our stock there is limited and we won’t be replenishing, so grab what you have been eyeing before someone else does!
If you can’t make it to Park Hill Treasures in time, you can always get your Painted Lantern Candles online. Remember, shipping is always free after $60 and we ship with ice packs! You can also shop at our events–there’s one almost every weekend from now until December. Remember that our prices have been kept the same as 2021 for the holiday season… this won’t last forever. ^_^
Candle Season Begins
The heat of summer has broken and it’s time for candles! We all know that candles are used to celebrate birthdays, Christmas, and New Year’s. But did you know that candles are also used for other purposes? They are often used to welcome fall and welcome spring. Traditionally, candles are used to signify the four seasons. For instance, candles are lit on the first day of winter, the first day of spring, first day of summer and the first day of fall. For a non-pumpkin take on autumn, try our Welcome Home!
Welcome Home (Royal Collection)
Home is where the heart is. Home is where the hearth is. Home is where you are always missed and where you are gladly welcomed. Home is comforting. Home is a safe haven. Home is your warm and cozy nest, surrounded by people you love and things that bring you joy. Home is where you belong. Welcome home.
Top notes: pink pepper, orange blossom
Middle notes: cloves, chestnut
Base notes: vanilla, cashmere
The Royale jars come in both single wick and triple wick, and they are absolutely beautiful. The glossy smooth glazed ceramic with its gold accents and hand-painted lids are unlike any other. These jars are sure to become conversation pieces, and will look beautiful once upcycled when the candle is finished!
Candles can also brighten up dark rooms and enhance the atmosphere in your home. When the days turn gray and overcast, candles create a warm and inviting atmosphere. The aroma of a candle is also more pleasing to the senses than the use of electric lights. For a gorgeous candle that warms up the room, try our new Angel’s Breath candle!
Angel’s Breath (2022 Boudoir Collection)
As our guardian angel hovers, a breath of air wafts down. Sweet and comforting with just a hint of je ne sais quoi, Angel’s Breath is a memory of love.
Top notes: cognac, hazelnut
Middle notes: cinnamon, oak
Base notes: vanilla, sandalwood
These candles are housed in a gorgeous thick glass jar with elaborate hexagonal embossing that dazzles. All these jars have been either electroplated or coated in iridescent material and they are most definitely showcases for the mantel, coffee table, counter, and anywhere else. The matching loose-fit starburst lids are also thick glass. When you pick up these candles you can feel the sophistication and quality in the solid weight and gorgeous material. These unique candles are shipped in a smooth-touch cushioned box that protects them from damage in transit. They are show-stoppers, dressed to impress, and eminently suited for gifting, holidays, housewarmings, or just because!
Ode to Candles
When you light a candle and sit in front of it, you relax. If you’ve ever visited a spa, you know that some treatments involve candles. I like candles that give me the impression that I am in a spa when I need to destress. In my opinion, Midnight Jasmine and Serenity are the most soothing meditative fragrances.
There is nothing better than sitting with your partner while you have a nice, fragrant candle burning. The smell of a candle can help you to get into a romantic mood. If you both like the same perfume, it creates a special, intimate atmosphere. A favorite fragrance helps to calm the mind, and it can create a feeling of intimacy between you and your partner. Light one, and your partner knows you’re in the mood.
Candles are great to help set the mood, too. You can associate specific scents to a specific emotion and use that scent to evoke that feeling again in the future. For example, Welcome Home always makes me feel like it’s the holidays and I’ve stepped into warmth and belonging.

Getting the Most out of Candles
It’s not safe to burn a candle down to the absolute dregs, but what about the leftover wax at the bottom?
Set your almost-empty candle on a mug warmer and turn it on–your improvised candle warmer will fill the room with fragrance!
I’ve been able to squeeze a couple of extra weeks out of my candles this way. Just don’t forget to turn off the mug warmer later! 😊
