Shh, I have a confession.

I think tomato vines smell even better than tomatoes.

Every summer I brush past the plants in my garden as I’m watering and wish I could bottle that scent—the green leaves warmed by the sun, the earth beneath them, the feeling that the whole season is still stretching out in front of you and it’s so wholesome.

Some scents are meant to smell like flowers.

But this one smells like the garden. One of my very favorite places in the summer.

Green. Earthy. Alive. A little unexpected.

Maybe it’s for gardeners. Maybe it’s for cooks. Maybe it’s for people who still remember the smell of picking tomatoes from the backyard as kids. Or maybe it’s just for anyone who believes summer should smell like something real.

If this is for you, Tomato Vine is arriving at En Light Candle Co. this week. 🌿🍅

A little shop update ✨

The shop will be closed tomorrow while I spend the whole entire day celebrating Max’s 8th grade graduation. 🎓

Summer is arriving in the shop:

Surprise! A limited pour if one of my favorites: Sunlight ☀️

Every summer I find myself reaching for this scent again and again.

With notes of lemongrass, jasmine, green tea, orange, ozone, and soft musk, it reminds me of sunshine through the trees, open windows, and long evenings that stretch a little later than expected.

This year I poured a small batch into these beautiful ceramic vessels, and I love how simple and timeless they feel.

The kind of candle you burn all summer and keep on the shelf long after it’s gone.

Limited quantities available online and in shop.

✨I’ve been counting down the days until I could return to the haunting world of Lady Tremaine, and today’s the perfect day-sunshine, a little breeze, wafts of garden flowers.

I read Lady Tremaine this winter and absolutely loved it.

It’s atmospheric and immersive, with crumbling manor houses, deep forests, royal intrigue, and one unforgettable peregrine falcon. But what really stayed with me was the way the author writes every character with such empathy. What could have been a simple fairytale retelling becomes a much richer story about power, patriarchy, motherhood, survival, and the stories we tell about women.

And if you’ve spent any time here, you know I love me the books, the forest, birds, and strong female characters.

I can’t wait to revisit this one with book club and hear everyone’s thoughts. 🤍📚🌿

✨Good books, great conversation, smart ladies, so much laughing, and so much fun. 📚

May’s book was Yesteryear, and it gave us a lot to talk about- what a twisty, turny, funny, disturbing and well-written book it was. Almost 6 years of book club and somehow it just keeps getting better.

And tomorrow I’ll be revealing our June book + book bundle - so come back to see!! ✨

A little encouragement bundle for someone stepping into a new season ✨

I paired this iridescent candle with the sweetest embroidered reminder and a box of “you are one of a kind” matches, for the type of gift that someone keeps for years after the occasion has passed.

Perfect for graduations, new jobs, big moves, fresh starts, brave decisions… or just reminding someone that they’re capable of creating a beautiful life for themselves. The sparkly candle vessels paired with bright scents are so uplifting!

Dreaming up these combinations are one of my favorite parts of being in the shop lately 🤍

A few sweet gift pairings from around the shop lately to help you in this gifting season✨

I love pulling together combinations that feel cozy, encouraging, bookish, summery, or just a little special. The kind of things you’d bring to a friend, tuck into a care package, celebrate a graduation with, (or keep for yourself).

Lately I’ve been especially drawn to:
📚 candles + books
🌊 soft coastal colors
🪡 handmade details
🍊 bright citrusy summer scents
🫐 anything that feels like a slow weekend morning

Candles are available online now. Other featured items can be purchased by messaging me directly and many are in limited quantities🤍

A little unexpected change of plans — the shop will be closed today 🤍

In the meantime, I’ll just leave these cheerful summer fruit candles here because they feel like pure sunshine to me lately 🍓🍋🍊🫐

The online shop is always open and I’m still happy to arrange porch pickup or shipping anytime by message. Thank you, as always, for your love and support! If I can open up for a bit tomorrow, I will post about it! Enjoy your weekend!!
