You like Yankee Candles? Well, these are better…read more The dude that makes the candles (Charles, I think) is usually at the counter. He told me that most candle producers (including Yankee) will fill the candle jar with unscented wax almost to the top, then let that settle and top the jar with the frangranced wax. I believe this because candles do tend to lose their potency. These guys use frangranced wax to fill the whole jar. They have quite a list to choose from and will deliver. I've given many as gifts and had requests to buy more when I travel to Kentucky. Some favorites are Kentucky Sunrise, Ale-8 Soda (Looking at your Reed N.), Daffodil Fields, Strawberry/Champagne and Graham Cracker. If you have a favorite from Yankee Candle, they can provide a better version. Just taking the lid off will smell up the whole room. ***After reviewing their website it seems they have been selling nationwide and I suppose that is why they have changed their candle names to be non KY related. Ale-8 is now Ginger Ale and Kentucky Sunrise is just Sunrise. ***

The two companies have a partnership. Paint pottery there & fill candle here for $35.00. Sierra was only staff present. Only a couple and myself there. She greeted me as soon as I entered & got me started with the process. She balanced proving service with me & other guests very well. She provided clear instructions & eventually I had a one-on-one experience. She answered all of my questions about this new business. It's clear she's passionate about being there and enjoys what they offer. She confirmed that this business is owned by a black woman. I love supporting all women in business! I filled the two jars I came with and added another as a gift for my Mom. Pour process was very easy and mess-free. I like the variety of scents and candle jars available. I feel like there is really something for men & women. There space can accommodate moderately large size groups (up to 60 people). I definitely want to return during their self-care Sundays and get some body butter or other body item. I'm very pleased with my selections. I burned one candle already & it smells great & my living room space was filled perfectly with the scent I created in the air! I really appreciate that they keep good records of customer creations so that I can replenish when needed.

Oops I did it again!…read more I love antique clocks (and antique/ vintage items in general) even though I dont have anywhere to put them all out in my house, but yesterday, I picked up this beautiful antique mahogany clock. I believe that it may be a Junghans German shelf clock. (Possibly a "Biedermeier style"?) clock with a dark reddish mahogany case and a beveled glass door. It has a wonderful deep toned strike on the hour and half hour. I found this gem at Second & Main and it's sister store Apparitions Vintage Village which is owned by an old high school friend Robin Sowers. This store has a little bit of everything from classis records, vintage items, and locally crafted items as well! Be sure and check them out!

This doesn't make it less beautiful, the view is just different. They do plant a lovely assortment of flowers: various types of lavender, wild flowers, zinnias, sunflowers (both very short and medium height-- not teller than you), and a couple others. Perhaps only one year they had pumpkins. There is not a ton on the grounds - there is a gorgeous gazebo and small shop. There are some benches outside of the shop, but I don't think this is a place you really plan to spend an extended period of time or picnic - it's more to indulge in the shop and see some beautiful flowers that you get to take home. It is a u-pick for $12. The owners are incredibly friendly! Their small shop is nice, smells delightful, and is clean. They have an assortment of goodies, mostly lavender themed: lavender shortbread cookies, lavender soaps, cute shaped soaps, body spray, honey, diffusers, essential oils, etc. Coming here for the "sunflower festival" I was a bit underwhelmed. The sunflowers weren't as tall or plentiful as I am used to seeing so I wasn't cascaded in sunflower rows where you can play hide and seek. I believe the taller sunflowers just had 2 rows. I was pleasantly surprised by the number of short sunflowers-- that was unique! Overall, I did expect to see more sunflowers at the sunflower festival. The website also advertised sunflower themed goodies and sunflower seeds, but there was none of that. There was a physic (I don't understand what this has to do with the theme), beer (hot day), snow cone, and 3 people selling handmade items (horse items, soaps, and jewelry). I was expecting more (sunflower themed) and some food vendors (there was a snow cone place). It just didn't feel very festivaly. It was a lovely time nonetheless and I left with gorgeous flowers (which surprisingly were not sunflowers).

This family owned lavender farm is just gorgeous, with bees and butterflies flitting around. They also just planted sunflowers and pumpkins that'll be ready later this year! Patty also said she hopes to start her own hive and make some lavender honey (which I wish they already had, but it'll be worth the wait!) I also told her about my failures with my own plant lavender and she was able to give me advice (I guess they don't like water haha). The boutique gift shop also smells unreal with amazingly priced items!! I was able to buy lavender shortbread cookies, 2 handmade lavender soaps, a lavender/vanilla body spray and a wooden soap holder all for $22! If you're in Lexington, please take a little drive out to see this adorable farm. P.S. I came back the same day to get another body spray! That's how good they are :)
