Enjoy the history of our company while keeping up to date on the latest trends in the candle industry. See first hand why we are called the 'What's New' candle company.Tina and I moved to the country in 1976 to live with an old friend who was getting up in years and needed our help. His name was Bill Hand. At 85 years old he had no immediate family left alive. He lived alone in his old farm house without heat, water or electricity and had barely enough to eat.
