Colonial Candle Blog

So, whether you take your cues for hues from mother nature or pick your colors from the catwalk, we’re bringing the colors indoors with our Fall Scent line.

We offer a hearty selection of color - Merlot, Cinnamon, Cranberry Spice, Cranberry Cosmo, Apple Orchard, Cinnamon Chai, Cinnamon Bark, and Cranberry Chutney.

In addition to celebrating American workers, Labor Day is also the unofficial mark of the end of summer. And of course, Labor Day is known to many people as a time to shop. 

Colonial Candle will be celebrating Labor Day all weekend long. 50% off everything from August 28th to September 2nd. 

As you usher in Autumn, take a little bit of summer with you. Enjoy the warm summer fragrances of fresh Blackberry Briar and crisp Citron Honey, which are part of our summer scent sale. 

If you want to take the summer garden aroma with you all the way until the first snow, check out our Rosehips and Hydrangea candle. And nothing reminds you of summer on the Cape, like Driftwood and Sage. 

Enjoy our 50% off sale, and happy Labor Day America!

In 1985, fourth-grader, Sean Moeller came up with the idea of National Relaxation Day. And who would know better about forgetting responsibilities for day than a 9 year-old? Sean suggested that people shouldn’t do anything of real value on this holiday. He told his idea to his grandfather, William D. Chase, who was the founder of Chase’s Calendar of Events. The event stuck and is still an annual holiday every August 15th.

Most people associate relaxation with hitting the spa for a massage, sauna or steam room. But there’s also relaxation in simple tranquil moments such as going for a walk, lighting a candle, going for a run, laying in the sun, sitting in a park, smelling lavender, doing Tai Chi, yoga, taking the time to just stretch, or setting a timer and sitting silently for 5 minutes and concentrating on long slow mindful breaths. Or maybe you spend the day focused on gratitude and on all the things to be grateful for.

Just like National Relaxation Day, our Sweet Pea candle is only available for a limited time. Enjoy one while they last and let your stress melt away as the delicate aroma fills your room. However you choose to relax, may you find some zen on National Relaxation Day.

Fall Awaits

Long days begin to shorten as summer tapers off to make room for the warm colors of fall. Everyone takes their last bites of shaved ice from a sidewalk vender or beachside ice-cream cone. Soon, you will no longer hear the thumping of bike tires along a boardwalk, or feel the sensation of walking in sandy shoes. A loyal towel that traveled with you all summer will soon be retired, and the warm night breeze on a fresh sunburn will be a thing of the past. Laughter and screams of delight from amusement park ferris wheels will fade into the distance and soon be replaced with ringing school bells and crunching leaves. 

It’s time for students to close the books on another summer as they gear up for quiet libraries with the smell of books and leather chairs, crackling fireplaces, falling leaves and shopping for back to school items in school colors. The anticipation of wearing jackets and boots again to weekend football games heightens, and hearts race at seeing school friends. 

As you trade in summer bonfires on the beach for cozy indoor fireplaces, you can enjoy 25% off Manly Indulgence candles with our Back to School sale, available August 14-21. Enjoy our rich scents such as Ivy League, guaranteed to remind one of their favorite study nook. Or, surprise your favorite academic with our Black Pine and Oak Moss candle, one that will surely remind them of vintage libraries and the crisp scent of fall.
