Good Tuesday, Neighbors! 🍁

Liv and I have been very busy in the crafting room filling your online orders, gift orders and special requests. In the process, we’re also beginning mad dash crafting for the upcoming holidays!

Our Apothecary shelves are pretty FULL from the overflow in all the fresh batches of treats we’ve been brewing up! Some of our extra stock has been added to our shelves at Serendipitous Dragonfly with much more to come! 🌾

Please note our NEW SEASONAL HOURS have begun. We’re OPEN 10-3:00 Tuesday through Friday and 10-2:00 Saturday. As always, after hours pick up and free local delivery is available for the convenience of our customers. We appreciate you!

Good morning, neighbors! Just a quick update…🎉

This year is flying by, and we're starting crafting lists upon lists for the holiday season! I'm going to share our next two month's on the calender, but, of course, things may be added as we go along.

Additions like DOUBLE LOYALTY STAMP WEEK! Spend $50 and get $10 OFF! Starting November 1st and going a FULL WEEK, get $10 OFF every $50 purchase in the Apothecary! If you don’t spend the full 50, no worries, you still get to double on your points!

I can't believe I'm saying this again so soon, but HOLIDAY ORDERS MAY BEGIN NOVEMBER 1st! As in years past, the more time you give us, the easier it is for us to accomodate your special orders. Please be mindful of the annual shipping delays the closer we get to the BIG DAY!

Please note today is the beginning of our new seasonal hours, and we will be closing at 3:00 weekdays.

Thank you for being part of our very special community and for sharing your holiday cheer with us! 🌲

Long post alert 🚨 because… It’s OUR BIRTHDAY!!! 🎂 🎁 🎉 (TLDR- we’ve made and sold a ton of candles in a bunch of places and we love you all, thanks!) 😊

Well… October 17th was, but who’s counting? 😅 WillowWik Candles has been on Facebook for ONE YEAR! 🕯️

To those who may not know- my name is Olivia, and my family supported me in this candle making venture after my son was born. I am more grateful than I can express that I’ve been able to stay home and raise my little one day in and out. He is now almost 2 (😭) and loves helping me in the craft room. If you ever find a label askew, it was probably Evin… probably. I’m not perfect! 😉

I’d say this is a one-woman show, but I can’t discredit all the hard work and reassurance my Mom has given me from the start. She FORCED me (thanks, Mom 😘) to begin making candles when a kit with the supplies I needed showed up on our kitchen table. Okay, fine. I guess I’ll give it a go. 🧐 Since then, Mom has been vital to my success, helping with labeling, packaging, branding, sales, and exposure. She’s also the best Nani in the world to Evin, keeping him busy while I work. Dad has been there, too, transporting things for craft fairs and bringing me the super important stuff I forgot. 😅 Thanks, Mom and Dad!

One year later- nearly *ONE THOUSAND* candles have passed through my hands to yours. Thank you. From cleaning and wicking jars to melting, fragrancing, and coloring wax, to pouring, whipping, topping, labeling, & packaging- we can assure you every detail of our handcrafted candles are created with care. I love what I do, and we’re so glad you do, too! ❤️

Our handcrafted soy dessert candles have been sold in Willow Wood Farm & Apothecary, Serendipitous Dragonfly, Chadwick’s Florist & Greenhouse, in Monument Park and Houlton’s Square, the John Millar Civic Center, Houlton’s Recreational Dept., Mill Pond School craft fairs… AND our candles will soon be available in another location in Houlton! 🕯️

🚚 We have shipped to California, Texas, North Carolina, Kentucky, Arizona, Georgia, & Massachusetts, and we hope to reach so many more. 🇺🇸

Thank you to all who’ve stopped at the Apothecary, who joined our candle making class (we’ll do it again- I’ve been busy!), those that sought me out at fairs over the summer, that ordered online, and to all our new followers gained this year! Thank you for being the reason we exist and continue to flourish. I’m so excited for this 2025 Holiday Season, and for another year of making the candles you love. ❤️ 🕯️

Happppyyyy biiirthday to me! 🎈 (my actual birthday is in December, gifts are optional! 😉)
