New Babies

I created two new candles today: acceptance and soothing a broken heart.

I think soothing turned out gorgeous! (Photo on right.) I'm pretty sure acceptance will too (they're still cooling, none are unmolded yet).

Other than allowing time and doing the legwork, I don't have a whole lot of influence when candles are birthed. They come when they come. I've tried forcing new candles into existence, but unless they're ready to come forth, they don't! Either they turn out ugly, or I can't find the exact right quote, or something undefinable just isn't right. Forcing the creative process rarely works for me, yet there's a fine fluid line between simmering organic creativity and fear-ridden inertia.

This morning I personally need acceptance. And soothing a broken heart was loudly knocking on the door, begging "Make me! Make me!" Both will be available to order later this week.

What's knocking on your door?
What's begging to be expressed through you?

Hi - I'm new around here, been loving your products for about a year and a friend turned me on to this blog. Love it!

So glad to see you've created the Acceptance candle - something I've been meditating a lot about for the last week or so. Great timing.

Love your products and look forward to ordering acceptance. Something that i'm always hard at work on. This is my first attempt at blogging. I purchase candles in December and gave them as gifts. received lots of positive feedbacks, the candles are wonderful and the healing themes are catching. Peace and Blessings
