The Holiday candles are here!! Holiday candles are a Give Simple “Stock Up Gift” – something you can give to multiple people on your holiday list, a pretty gift that is easy to give and easy on the budget. This is perfect for teachers, neighbors, co-workers, hostesses or an unexpected guest. Also a lifesaver for the inevitable “Oops, I forgot to buy you a gift” scenario that we all have gone through!

I know, it seems early, but trust me, some of our Give Simple customers start asking in October, will you have that Christmas candle again? They are asking about the Michel Design Works Comfort and Joy candle. Customers LOVE this candle and buy multiples year after year. It is a soy candle, hand made from renewable resources, and burns for 40 hours. It is beloved for the traditional cinnamon spice fragrance, but also for the beautiful packaging. The pretty red and white brocade pattern is repeated in gold on the glass candle container inside. No need to wrap, this candle is ready to give!

For those with a preference for a more green Holiday scent, we’ve added Thymes Frazier Fir, which smells like a big fresh Christmas Tree! Our market sources tell us this is the best selling holiday candle in the country. Mountain fresh and glowing, Thymes Frasier Fir helps set the mood for those moments that make the holidays so special. Beautifully boxed and ready to give, candle comes in a pine needle patterned decorative glass container. Perfect for those of us with artificial trees. Ours is 8 years old, which makes us quite green, but I do miss the delicious pine smell! This year, I'll use the Frazier Fir room spray, or as I call it, "Chrismas in a can," as well as the candles, no wait, maybe a diffuser... Too many choices!!

At any rate, our fulfillment center smells like Christmas now, so I am already in a festive mood!

Happy Halloween!!
