Summer time in the prairies

It's finally here!!  The days start off dewy and the birds are singing their songs in the early morning sunrise rays.  Honestly as much as Manitoba has some beautiful winters I'm for sure a summer girl.  When I first started out on my candle journey I did many many many outdoor markets to get my feet on the ground.  Lots of learning, lots of early mornings stuffing my car full for set up and lots of friendly faces.  That's one of the things I miss, seeing all the smiles at the markets.  But for me I had to learn to place my time better.  Between working full time as a paramedic, making my candles and doing markets it just became to much.  I've learnt to pick and choose what works for me and my business.  For this summer I won't be doing any outdoor markets or shows, I will be choosing to remain working diligently in my studio in the exchange and offering pick up or shipping for you.  I've been blending and melting furiously!  Designing new scents and finding or thrifting more super cool vintage glass to breath new life into.  I absolutely love re using what is already produced so I can try to lower my carbon footprint in my small way.  Not to worry until I come up with a new plan I will also remain with my classic tins and jars for those of you that like traditional style.  Don't forget to give me a follow on Instagram! @prairiegirlcandles
Have a fab day, week, month and summer!!
