You have an option to have them drillout parr of the top candle wick area and use three candle with a small LED light. This option illuminates the whole candle with a nice glow. Although tempting to do, we opted to keep it the way it was made. They packed it in a small box with those styrofoam peanuts so it wouldn't get damaged, which was a nice touch. We will definitely be back when we are in the area.

This was such a great chance to hit the pause button and reset myself! I did not realize how much I really really needed this. I finished an hour of reiki feeling so at peace and relaxed. It felt like a weight had been lifted off of me. The salt cave is so nice and such a beautifully zen place. (I want a salt cave in my home now) Diana is hands up and down amazing. She's so patient, open minded, understanding, & has such a warm welcoming personality. I did an hour of reiki with her and wish I lived closer to go more often. She has an amazingly warm and gentle touch that made this reiki session even more comforting! Once we finished the session, the messages she had received and given me from the session were SPOT ON! It was exactly what I have been saying and feeling and wanting to work on and what I needed to hear and helped motivate me further. If you are looking for somewhere to go and press pause /reset & decompress, I highly recommend going here, you won't regret it.

In looking for somewhere to throw a small and low-key bachelorette party for my aunt, I stumbled…read moreacross this place. I thought the idea of a perfume-making party was so incredibly cool, and I was especially surprised and impressed that there was somewhere like this in Scranton! We got a good deal on a Groupon. Heads up- if you go this route, you'll want to make sure that you actually have the app installed on your phone and don't just print out the tickets. The space is so lovely and grand. The shop has shelves full of designer perfumes and homemade candles, as well as high-end gifts from boutique artisans. The perfume bar is set up at the front. When we arrived, our table was already set up with handouts and bottles of scented oils. Our guide did talk a little fast, but the concept itself is easy enough to understand. You build a blend of base notes, middle notes, and top notes. Each vial of scents is clearly marked with what kind of note it is and what scent family. You build your perfume by dipping a paper blotter into the vials, and then stacking the papers into a holder and wafting the scents. The staff was so helpful in making suggestions. It was so incredibly cool to mix and match scents and note how the perfume changes buy switching out elements. For the experience you get up to two hours to build your blend, but I think we were done in about an hour from start to finish, including when the staff finished blending the perfume behind the bar. While you wait for your perfume to get completed you can browse the shop- there's plenty to catch your eye! One of the coolest parts of this class is that the store will record your special blend in their system so if you want to reorder it in the future you can! I may eventually take advantage of that perk because I really love my blend and have been wearing it ever since! They offer shipping too so you can reorder even if you're far away. I'd definitely recommend this class if you find yourself in the area! It's such a neat and unique experience. You get to learn about perfume, have a fun experience, make a one-of-a-kind signature scent, plus you get to take a fancy perfume home with you! Definitely worth checking out. And, even if you don't have time for the full experience, this shop is so gorgeous that I highly recommend popping in and getting a gift or two!

So you like a good Yankee Candle? But, you hate their…read moreprices? And you of course don't have one of their BOGO coupons available at the moment? Sounds like a plan as to a limited extent I feel the same way. I live a little less than an hour away from Lehighton so while far, a trip to the Blue Mountain home office is not impossible looking for a cheaper alternative. As a point of context a typical Yankee Candle large jar is twenty four ounces with a burn time of 110-150 hours at a standard sticker price of $27.99. At Blue Mountain their large jars are listed at lasting 125-150 hours for a sticker price of $15.99. Of course the rub is that the scent from a BM candle is nowhere near as potent as one from Yankee. Sorry, but that is fact. But BM does have a ton of scents available and while not every scent is good (who the hell is buying the fresh cut grass candle?) the choices they offer easily rival Yankee. If you go for a visit to the home office in Lehighton a few things are noteworthy: 1. The hours on the door of the building list them as opening at 10am and their website lists directions to the store but no hours which is bizarre but they do open at 9am on weekdays. 2. The store has an entrance door on both sides of the building but the parking lot on the east side of the building is a little rough with pot holes so watch yourself lest you loose a tire or destroy your suspension. 3. Seemingly there is little to no heat in the building so if you are there on a cold day it doesn't feel all that different in the store as opposed to what it feels like outside. 4. Candles are not the only thing sold at the store as they also offer various country home decor items that while I suppose are nice, to me they would only be interesting to my grandmother. If you can't get to the store and live in the area chances are eventually you will come across a school age member of your family selling BM candles as they are big into school fundraising. Now I realize that not everyone can get their hands on something from Blue Mountain Candle with it being in Lehighton but if you can it's a decent alternative to Yankee until the next time they offer a BOGO coupon.
