Congratulations to Suzan H.!  She is the winner of our Fire Up Friday Sweetgrass giveaway.

Number 5 was picked out of a hat…

We loved reading all the ideas and reasons that you light candles. 

Keep watching for our next giveaway! 

It's always exciting when a new store starts to carry Linnea's Lights, but even more exciting to see them blog about it!

Check out Parcel Post!

The Parcel Post blog has two stores, urbanic and neighborhood.  Linnea's Lights are now available at Urbanic.  Surf through their stores and blog and you will love their designs.  Urbanic is located in Venice Beach, California.    If you live close, go shop!  …and then come back and tell us how much you love their store. 

Ok – It's not yet friday, but let's get this party started a little early!

Have you smelled our Sweetgrass candle?  It has to be one of my favorites.  The scents of fresh grass & sweet violets are perfectly clean and so refreshing to walk into a room with this candle lit.  I often have this candle burning on my mantle or kitchen counter.  I start the candle as I'm making dinner and enjoy the freshness into the evening. 

Here's the question:

What is your favorite reason to light a candle?

Congratulations janet_o!  You are the winner of our Yuzu candle.

Thank you for
sharing with us your favorite summer scents! 

The first shipment of Linnea's Lights arrived at Ink & Peat and they shared the news on their design blog House Martin . 

Ink & Peat is located in Portland, Oregon and now carries Linnea's Lights in their retail store. 

Once you start browsing their store site and blog, you will be lost for hours in the design inspiration that they share.  You will want to book a flight to Portland if you don't already live near there.  We are so excited that Linnea's Lights are now a part of their retail store.  

Be sure to visit The Willows Home & Garden in Phoenix, AZ.

Lights natural soy candles are meticulously hand-poured in small

enjoy creating them!

This week's giveaway is our summer Papaya candle. 

Our version of Papaya is a tropical treat… papaya, passion fruit and luscious greens… which makes for a lovely summer scent.
