Issue 1.4 – Homesick Candles

As females, there is something inherently ingrained in all of us that makes us seek out good smells. Who doesn’t love to hear, “OMG it smells amazing in here!”, when guests walk into your home? Marry our love of heavenly scents with the desire to create a welcoming environment and TA-DA, our infatuation with candles is born! 💡

Now, Homesick Candles aren’t just any old run-of-the-mill candles that you can scoop up for $14.00 at Home Goods (but if you do happen to see one there, you damn well better grab me one!). Homesick Candles are elite – they are special occasion, memory evoking jars of exquisite smelling soy. This is NOT the candle that Karen is burning when she has the girls over for bridge night and Elaine brings the same goddamned casserole that she makes every single week. On the contrary, this candle is the one that the hostess extraordinaire burns when she throws an Après Ski themed fête complete with endless champagne, raclette, fur adorned beauties and live reindeer.

During North Conway Girls Weekend, our senses were treated to the amber, vanilla and cedar notes of the Ski Trip Candle, but that’s just one of the many weapons that Homesick has in their olfactory army 👃🏽 (<– Rocio, that’s not a dick just an FYI). There are a variety of scents curated with nostalgia in mind – Beach Cottage, American Summer, Road Trip, Holiday Stroll – as well as candles crafted with notes that are reminiscent of each state in the union (thanks, but no thanks New Jersey Candle 😝). They also offer related products such as car fresheners, reed diffusers and wick trimmers, which I’m sure are the same high quality as their candles, yet I cannot personally attest to them, however I do I accept gifts in which case I’d be happy to update this post accordingly 😉

Homesick offers bundle deals, occasional discounts and free shipping over $65.00.
