Hey Coco Friends!
I know it’s been a little quiet on the social media front lately, and I want to apologize for that! I’ve been working behind the scenes on some exciting changes, so here’s a little breakdown:
Whats To Come
The Basic Candle
I’ve heard your feedback loud and clear—you love the look of my candles but don’t always want to burn them. I totally get it! They're so cute, it's hard to imagine burning them. But here’s a fun fact: I use mica powders and glitter in my candles, so when you light them, the melted wax gets this gorgeous, glittery glow! It’s honestly one of my favorite parts of the process, and I know the kids love it too.
But for those of you who want something more low-key—something to burn without feeling guilty—I’ve got something for you! Introducing the Basic Candle—a sleek, minimalist design with none of the frills. No color, no glitter, no whipped wax frosting—just a clean, 8oz white square metal tin. I’m still experimenting with the container, but this will be available in any of my signature scents. And I’m also considering adding a 15oz size, but we’ll see what you think!
What Happened to the New Scents?
First off, I want to say I’m so sorry! I know I promised to launch two new scents in June, but I’m learning a lot as I go. The creative process can sometimes get the best of me, and I end up focused more on ideas than logistics. As a business owner, I’m learning to pace myself, especially when it comes to seasonal drops. I’m working on it, and those new scents will launch—just not right now.
Whats New?
New Products on the Horizon?
Yes! I’m so excited to expand beyond candles. Think bath and body products, soaps, reed diffusers, and more. But—I need to slow down for a bit! I’m still just getting started, and I want to focus on perfecting the candles and wax melts first. But don’t worry, I’ll be adding new things soon enough!

New Website
I’ve officially switched from Squarespace to Shopify to take my business to the next level! With this move, I’ve updated product photos and backgrounds, made the website more user-friendly, and I’m super happy with how it’s turning out.
Any Updates?
Candles
There will be some changes with the candles. Some scents will be discontinued as I focus on my core collection of main, seasonal, and holiday scents. I’ll give you a heads-up before anything is gone for good, so you can grab your favorites while they’re still available.
I’ve also made some updates to the designs of certain candles, like Cashmere Petals and Blueberry Waffles, and I’m working on custom fragrance blends. I’m also experimenting with the hot throw to make sure your candles smell amazing even when they’re burning.
Wax Melt Bars
Wax melts are getting an upgrade too! New packaging! No more wrappers—moving forward, they’ll come in plastic containers to ensure the fragrance stays fresh. I’m still finalizing the labels, but I’ll keep you posted on the changes.
Changes to Scents
Some scents didn’t get as much love as I hoped, so I’ll be tweaking them or introducing new variations. If you’re a fan of any of the ones going away, don’t worry—I’ll let you know in advance so you can stock up!
