We would like to welcome Susan's Country Thistle to the growing list of companies carrying our natural soy candles.

Susan recently took over management of the Country Thistle in Pleasant Valley, New York.

As any good business person would do she was trying to keep costs down while at the same time providing quality products to her customers.

We were a welcome relief when we walked in and presented her with our soy candles. The previous owner had carried Yankee Candles, but since Susan had taken over the business Yankee wanted her to place a first time order as a new customer for $3000.

With our natural soy candles and low start up cost of only $250 Susan decided to give us a try. We are happy to report that the Country Thistle has just placed a second order with us.

If you would like to see Susan's Country Thistle just go to Susan's Country Thistle, we have put up a video of her location.

Just in case you missed it, in celebration of Earth Day, Oprah’s show had Sandra Bullock on and was the biggest hit of the day. She talked about growing up green and clean burning soy candles.

Our soy candles are 100% soy wax with cotton wicks. Our wicks do not have lead in them and don't emit black smoke. One of the things that you need to watch out for are companies that claim to have soy candles but in reality only have a small amount of soy in them. Be sure to choose a company that has 100% soy wax if you want to get all of the benefits of a soy candle.

Go green and start using soy candles, they are better for you, your family, the environment and help American farmers earn a living.

Giving is part of human nature. We have even created the expression, “it is better to give than to receive” to emphasize the importance of giving and the virtue of generosity. This is why whenever special occasions arrive we always make it a point to wrap something nice for our loved ones and friends.

However, finding time to shop for gifts is not that easy especially in this day and age when most of our schedules are filled with loads of work, house chores, and other things that keep us very busy.

Fortunately for us we have soy scented candles. What used to function only as a source of light has transformed to become one of the most popular gift items in today’s society.

1. Available in a wide variety of choices. There are scented jar candles, votives and tins. They are available in a vast array of shapes, colors, sizes and scents which will make it easy for you to get one that will suit the personality of the recipient of your gift.
