Colour - Lavender

Lavender has long been a favorite flower and color of genteel ladies. This shade of purple suggests refinement along with grace, elegance, and something special.

Purple and its lighter lavender shades has a special, almost sacred place in nature: lavender, orchid, lilac, and violet flowers are often delicate and considered precious.

While purple is the color of royalty, lavender is the color of femininity. It's a grown up pink.

Use the color lavender to suggest something unique or extremely special but without the deeper mystery of purple. Lavender may be a good choice when you are targeting women and want to invoke feelings of nostalgia or romance.

Candle Quote

Flameless Candles!

For some, the rules that come with burning candles can be tiring and a nuisance, and as a result, the person just quits burning candles all together.  But Gold Canyon had a solution to that, which are our wickless candles!

If you have never tried one of our pod warmers, you are missing out!  These are great because they plug in and have a timer on them, so you do not have to remember to turn it off.  Simply take your favourite scent pod, take off the lid, and set it on the warmer and you are done.  The wax will slowly melt and release the scent for you to enjoy. 

The scent will last a minimum of 20 hours.

Dear Maven - Oil Adapter?

Please help! I'm LOVING all of the new Home Fragrance Oils - especially the Scent Blend Duos! But why do I have to have an Oil Adapter? What happens if I just put the oils directly on my current Scent Pod® Warmer?

  

Oooh! Pouring oil directly on the Pod Warmer is not advised. Why, you ask? Well, let me give you a quick Pod Warmer anatomy lesson: The electrical components are housed below the warming plate. The plate is NOT sealed, so the oil will leak into the unit. This will not only damage the unit, but will also cause danger of electrical shock! We never want to risk severe injury and/or property damage, and pouring Home Fragrance Oil directly onto your Pod Warmer could easily do just that.

The adapter is not only a safe bet, but is of course trés chic and such a great value! Available in three oh-so-neutral colors to suit your favorite Pod Warmer designs, this little wonder is a must-buy for any Scent Blend Duo Diva. Happy blending!

Dear Maven - Chalkboard Doodles?

Hi Maven!

I just LOVE the new Summer catalog and the Look Book is fabulous! I have a couple of questions about the MyStyle - Chalkboard Doodles on page 73. Are those place cards just cut up pieces from the labels and what is wrapped around the base of the Changing Seasons Holder?

I really wish I could take credit for these cool ideas, but the truth is, I had to hang out with some of the creative gals in Marketing to get the answers to your questions. 

Good eye! Yes, those are MyStyle - Chalkboard Doodles that the design team actually cut into thirds and used as place cards in the Straight Votive Glass. I loved the idea as soon as I saw it! The base of the Changing Season’s Holder is actually another piece of the MyStyle - Chalkboard Doodle that was horizontally cut in half to creatively hide the feet of the holder. Oooooh! I see now … you almost forget those feet are there when you see this Look Book display.

There are so many ways to get crafty with MyStyle labels, but I want to see how you like to use them! Send us your crafty creations (via photo of course) and we may feature them in our next Candid Corner or right here in the most read column in the newsletter! J

We always want to hear from you. If you and your customers want to see a product developed or fragrances return, send them to us—we are always tracking your requests!
