The scents are mostly floral, baked goods or fruity. There is a selection of electric candle warmers which are pretty cool. It feels less dangerous than a burning candle with a flame. You plug in the electric warmer and put the small tart shaped wax on top. The warmer melts the wax. The person working there (owner?) was very friendly and helpful. After making our purchase, she seemed so appreciative of our business. It was actually our pleasure since my family spent a bit of time browsing and being excited over the different scents.

Jim Thorpe is a little town with an oaky smokey vibe so there are a lot of little shops set up to…read moretake advantage of that and sell you a bunch of shitty trinkets trading on that vibe. This is not one of them. Sure, they're in retail so they're getting their herbs and candles and such in bulk and selling them for a markeup. They're a STORE. Duh. The differnce is the quality of the items and the fact that Heather & Zech are clearly in and of the craft, and have a sense for how to help you get what you actually need without taking advantage. Came in recently with my husband and got exactly the candles and herb I needed without being hassled or upsold or in some way bamboozled by that money hungry trinket vendor at a flea market vibe you don't want to deal with. You know the one. It's not likely that I'll come to Jim Thorpe often as it's so out of the way, but if and when I do again, I will come here and stock up on supplies.

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.
