Not only did we restock our blind books (we call the mystery books over here) we've added another cute little mystery to the bunch.

I'm always trying to figure out ways to reduce waste around here and since so often I have left over scent from Julia's Book Club (Candle) or custom orders, I've created the Mystery Book Candle.

What's a Mystery Book Candle you ask? Inspired by the concept of blind date with a book, these scents are truly one of a kind and remain a mystery as they will likely never be produced again... (read very limited edition).

In addition to giving the scent a new life, the candles are poured into reclaimed jars that are cleaned and sterilized.

Mystery Books and Mystery Book candles can be purchased online or in person wherever we pop up! (We even offer this duo as a bundle!)

10/31/2026
