Due to popular demand and inquiry, my August design and scent will be the special design that I did back in the Spring, The beach themed candle. For those of you who don't recall, I took a picture of the beach while vacationing there this past winter, then crafted a candle design to match the picture exactly. The scents in the candle are Sun and Sand, Ocean Water, Ocean Breeze, and Midnight Beach. When you look at the candle, you glimpse what looks like an actual photo of the beach. I thought that this design was appropriate to the month of August, when everyone crams in one last beach trip before September begins and everyone goes back to school.
So bring the beach into your home for the last month of the summer by ordering your candles today at CANDLES BY STEPHEN.
The pricing has changed for candle orders, effective with the August candle orders.
I hate to raise prices, but along with everything else, the prices of my supplies have gone up in the past 5 months, and it is simply not cost effective for me to keep the candles at the old prices. Also, July will be the last month that you will be able to purchase a one year candle subscription. Effective August 1st, no more subscriptions will be sold. Current subscribers will be able to finish out their current subscriptions, and the price hike will not be reflected in either their current subscriptions, nor any others ordered before August 1st. I regret cancelling the subscription packages, but again, cost effectiveness is forcing my hand. So after August 1st, you may only order single orders or my package orders for the month.

NEW PRICING IS AS FOLLOWS:

JULY CANDLES


Well, the colors of July are obvious to all. The colors of America will burn bright in your house with July's CBS design. July is also the month that I was born, and when decorating for the fourth, and my birthday which falls the day after, I love hanging all manner of patriotic decorations up around my house. I cut an arrangement of pink and blue hydrangeas, then stick in Queen Ann's Lace to give a red, white and blue feel. These candles will be a nice way to color up your house for America's birthday month.
The fragrances featured in this candle are apple pie, pomegranate, and blue sky. I am not usually a fan of food fragrances, but it was hard to resist the choice, so I then added pomegranate to cut the scent and add a twist to it, and the blue sky fragrance is a refreshing and clean breeze of a scent.
So pick up your July candle, a design dripping in Americana and fresh fragrance!
