‘Tis the season once again and the Linnea’s Lights studio is neck deep in Holiday packing, shipping and mixing! We thought it would be fun to give you a peek behind the scenes at some of the madness. As you can see, everything is packed lovingly by hand here in Indiana and the candles (including Forest Fir, Fireside and Winter, along with the wonderful gift set complete with all three) are ready to arrive at your door.

As the seasonal stress-levels rise, I always think that there’s nothing better than a candle to help “keep calm and carry on.” So get a jump on the holiday cheer and spread some of our wonderful new collection all throughout the house. And while you’re at it, why not stock up on some of your favorites and gift them to friends? Everyone can use a little more merry to go around, don’t you agree?

The Holiday Gift Set is on sale here now!

I fondly look back on my childhood memories of walking through the local Christmas tree farms, picking out our family holiday tree and selecting the fresh greenery for the wreath Lynn always hung at our front door. Nothing was better or more inspiring than smelling the resin of the tree on our hands and then the tradition of enjoying some hot cocoa once we got back home. This brilliant, clean and crisp scent is inspired by the ancient Fir trees of Sweden—the oldest living trees in the world. Long used to perfume homes, the fir tree was also believed to be the home of fairies and was brought into the house to frighten away evil spirits.
