As Winter settles and the pace of the new year begins to slow, Valentine’s Day offers a natural moment to create a cozy atmosphere for spending time with loved ones. Rather than decorating for a single day, we love viewing this season as an invitation to lean into warmth, comfort, and details that make your home feel loved. It’s about surrounding yourself with pieces that make everyday moments feel a little sweeter.

Seasonal Scent Refresh

One of the simplest ways to shift the feeling of your home is through scent. Lighting a new candle instantly signals a change of season and sets the tone for slower, more intentional moments.

Our newest styles include a delicate heart design in our top-selling scent Pink Grapefruit that features notes of orange, grapefruit, and cedar. This candle is a simple way to refresh your home in a way that feels festive yet timeless for the upcoming holiday.

For a similar yet subtle pop of color, our best-selling pink matte jar candles invite warmth and softness to your shelves, coffee tables, or bedside stylings. From our “XOXO” candle in our Island Air scent that features notes of tropical fruit, mountain air, and orange, to our “All of Me Loves All of You” candle in our Mango and Coconut scent that layers notes of coconut milk, peach, mango, and sugar…their understated hue feels seasonal while still blending seamlessly with neutral decor. Not to mention that these scents also transition beautifully into the Spring season!
