Williams Christmas Tree Farm on Long Lake Road in Traverse City is a scene from a movie. And each year, our entire family bundles up, loads into the car, and crank the Christmas music en route to pick out our tree for the year. This candle is inspired by the sites and smells of a small, family owned Christmas tree farm operated out of a century old barn.
Notes of orange spice from the kitchen, fir and pine notes from the Christmas tree, and an earthy smokiness from the fireplace.

Our family lived in a 114 year old farm house in Traverse City. It had charm but boy was it cold in the winters! One of our children's most vivid memories is waking up to the captivating smell of the warm fire that dad had made in our century old hearth. Welcome to Fireside Flicker.
Notes: A fragrance reminiscent of gentle, dusky breezes and bonfires, with notes of dried, wind-blown leaves, heliotrope, charred woods of pine and cedar, amber, smoky sandalwood, and musk with a background containing hints of roasted marshmallows, brown sugar, coconut and soft vanilla. This is a fascinating, complex, unique and appealing scent.

Morning people? Not us. Crawling out of bed during a cold winter morning is no easy task. The first one brave enough to make the kitchen traverse always starts a fresh pot of coffee. And then....everything is better.
Notes of bold Columbian coffee beans and freshly brewed coffee accentuated by hints of rum, brandy, brown sugar, and cocoa beans.
