Also, as many of you have taken advantage of, we are still running our sale on American Soybean Jars. Get them while they last!

New Fragrance of the Month: Macintosh Apple!

July is here and we have a new Fragrance of the Month - Macintosh Apple! This fragrance is crisp and sweet, and a perfect fragrance for the summer months. As always, the Fragrance of the Month is available in the four Pantry Jar sizes: 2.75oz, 6oz, 12oz and 24oz. I would highly recommend trying this delicious fragrance!

What you might not know about Lemon Grass

I've been asked by customers a lot lately, as it is that time of year, about mosquito-repelling candles. For any of you who do not already know, our Lemon Grass fragrance, besides being one of our top-selling scents, also works to repel mosquitoes! Try burning one of the Lemon Grass candles the next time you want to sit outside and enjoy the summer evenings. As an added bonus, the Lemon Grass candle is one of our Aromatherapy candles, which means it contains essential oils to help calm your body and ease fatigue!

I also wanted to remind everyone that June is coming to an end, and that means that so is the Earth Echoes fragrance of the Month! Make sure you get your Earth Echoes candles while they're still available!

I've noticed that many of you have also taken our suggestion and tried the new Fresh Strawberry fragrance. I'd love to hear what you think of it!

Fresh Strawberry

So many of our customers have been asking for a long time for a Strawberry fragrance. Well, we have now brought that to you with our Fresh Strawberry fragrance! This fragrance is going to be sold exclusively through our Online/Outlet Stores, so you will not be able to find this specific fragrance at your favorite local dealer.
This fragrance is currently available in Votives, Candle Refill Kits, 12oz Homespun Jars and 12oz and 24oz Potting Shed Jars. You will soon been able to find Fresh Strawberry in the 16oz Botanical Pillars as well!

TARTS!


I have been receiving a lot of emails lately on how happy many of you are that we have started to make tarts. These little wax discs are great to fill a room up with fragrance without using a flame, and they are incredibly easy to manage - when you are done using them, they pop right out of the melter. If you have used the Crumbie Melts in the past, you need to try these tarts and let us know what you think! We are thinking of creating a variety pack of tarts so that you might be able to try a few different fragrances. Please let me know if you have any suggestions for fragrances in a sampler pack.

I just wanted to remind everyone again that we are getting very close to the end of the month, and the end of the Tuscan Vineyards fragrance of the month! Get your Tuscan Vineyards candles now before its too late!

Dundee Meeting

I just came back from another manager's meeting at the Dundee Swan Creek Candle Outlet Store. The store looks fantastic - lots of new summer items! If you get a chance, I would certainly recommend visiting this store!



I also heard that, like many of you online shoppers, the customers shopping at the Outlet Stores have really started to switch from using the Pantry Jar candles to the new Homespun Jars. The sophisticated look of this jar really makes it a great candle to use with any decor - which also makes it great for gifts! If you typically burn the Pantry Jar candles, try a Homespun Jar on your next order and let us know what you think.

Also, I just wanted to remind you to check out the Fragrance of the Month selection. This month is Tuscan Vineyards - a fragrance a lot of you asked us to bring back - and it will not be around for much longer! Also, keep checking back for all of your favorite discontinued fragrances!

Welcome to the Swan Creek Candle Internet Shop!

Welcome to the new blog for Swan Creek Candle online shoppers! With all of the great feedback that we've been getting via phone and email from all of you loyal Swan Creek online shoppers, we thought we would offer you a new way of sharing!

Let us know which fragrances you love, which fragrances you miss (a future possibility for the Fragrance of the Month!), and maybe even what you would like to see from our website in the future! Also, for those of you curious about fragrances that you haven't tried, this may be a great way to find out what your fellow shoppers have enjoyed.

I personally love the Thai Pear and Wild Meadows fragrances that we just introduced this Spring. The Thai Pear is oh so sweet and delicious, a perfect fragrance to fill the kitchen with the aroma of ripe summer fruit. And although I am not typically a floral person, I love Wild Meadows. I would definitely recommend trying out this scent.

And it looks like a lot of our Outlet Store shoppers feel the same way. I recently went to the Manager's Meeting at our Perry Michigan Outlet Store, and all of the managers mentioned that they were having a hard time keeping those fragrances on the shelves!

So, feel free to post your thoughts - we look forward to reading them!

Shelley, Internet Shop ManagerItalic
