I have many friends that are addicted to candles, so I'm buying at the Long Island Candle Factory. Their hand poured candles are made from natural soy wax and 100% cotton wicks so they are not only eco-friendly but also soot free. These are clean burning candles, and they smell great. Why? Because the LI Candle Factory blends their own fragrances using clean and unobstructed product. Go local with Hampton Beach (cool water & summer flowers) & Montauk Mist (ocean & sea berries), or try a holiday scent like Noel (cloves and orange, yum). Pictured below is my standard favorite, lavender.
Small candles are $10 and large are $18. LI Candle Factory also makes their own fragrances which you can buy as scented oils (right, 2 oz. $16, 4 oz. $25). There are reed diffusers for sale, and oil burners ($18 - $20) like the charming one below:
Long Island Candle Factory is truly grassroots. Until only 8 months ago they were making candles out of a kitchen. Luckily, they've now got a retail store so that kitchen is open for cooking food again. Tell them congratulations when you drop by the holiday shops.
