With the Cupid’s Corner Handmade Market fast approaching, I wanted to share a closer look at what I’ve been lovingly creating for this special event to be held in downtown Oakland, MD next Saturday, February 14th, from 10am–4pm.
This Valentine’s collection brings together eco-friendly soy wax candles in a range of styles — from playful, whimsical designs embellished with molded wax teddy bears, cupcakes, and hearts, to elevated, luxury pieces poured into iridescent glass vessels and finished with intricately molded wax blossoms. Each candle is hand-poured, thoughtfully detailed, and designed to feel both joyful and refined.
The collection features a curated palette of scents, thoughtfully developed to suit the season — including sultry, sweet, citrus, fruit, and floral notes. Whether you’re drawn to something romantic and cozy or light and uplifting, there’s a fragrance meant to be lingered over.
In addition to candles, I’ll also have:
💕Botanical soy wax sachet sets and melts, accented with beautiful, dried florals
💕Spring-inspired stovetop simmer mixes, blending herbs and blooms that hint at the freshness of the early season
Every piece has been created slowly and intentionally, with great care given to sustainability, craftsmanship, and the small details that make handmade goods feel truly special.
For those of you who had some difficulty locating us at the last market, hopefully this info will help guide you to our spot: locate the Garret Arts Council Gallery at 108 South Second Street, and either (a) enter and go through to the very back of the store (being sure to appreciate all the lovely offerings from local artists and artisans along the way) and pass through the door at the rear to enter the Smart Art Space, or (b) go past the storefront and take the alley next to the building, where you’ll enter the Smart Art Space through the side door.
Please stop by and say hello - this beautiful Valentine’s collection was made with you in mind. ❤
