PREORDERS ARE NOW OPEN!
County House is proud to celebrate the 50th Annual Ohio River Sternwheel Festival with a special commemorative release handcrafted right here in Marietta, Ohio.
We are proud to be the official sponsor of scented wax products for the annual Sternwheel Festival. In honor of this year’s 50th Anniversary celebration, we were asked to create a special commemorative candle for the Captains and Co-Captains gifts — and we believe we created something truly magical.
Now we’re making this special commemorative release available to you!
Available by preorder:
• 50th Anniversary 13 oz Mason Jar Candle — $25
• 50th Anniversary 6 oz Wax Melt Pack — $15
🚢 Only 100 candles and 100 wax melt packs will be available in total, regardless of fragrance selected.
Preorders close September 1 at 6 PM or when the 100-unit limit for either product is reached, whichever comes first.
Each candle and wax melt pack will feature our special 50th Anniversary Sternwheeler commemorative label, and you get to choose from one of twelve fragrances.
These are made to order and available by preorder only.
📍 Preorder in person at Smith & Company Vintage Market in Marietta
💬 You may also message County House directly to reserve yours.
Payment is due at the time of ordering.
📦 Preorders will be ready for pickup during Sternwheel Festival weekend, September 12–13.
If you order through Smith & Company Vintage Market, pickup will be there. If you order through County House on Messenger, we can arrange a convenient time and place for pickup.
Whether you want one to enjoy during festival weekend, keep as a reminder of this milestone celebration, or give as a gift, we’d love to make one for you.
