Hello, and welcome to what I can only describe as an odyssey into the mesmerizing world of candle-making. But don't be fooled; this journey "Into the Wormhole" hasn't been all smooth sailing—or should I say, smooth melting?
Why candles, you might ask? Well, think about it. Candles not only light up a room but also have the power to light up someone’s day. This venture began as a mere spark of curiosity but soon turned into an all-consuming fire—pardon the pun—of endless research, discussions, and quite a few 'aha' moments. While it all started as a casual exploration, the universe soon told me that this was going to be my next big thing.
Now, diving into the world of wax is like entering an alchemist’s lab. The balance between wick size and the elusive "scent throw" became a daily contemplation. Trust me, you don't want to know how many notepads I've filled with meticulous notes on every single blend, thickness of the wick, and test runs. I spent days—and sometimes nights—measuring, pouring, and observing. There's no room for error, but there's a lot of room for learning.
Picture me sweating it out in the peak of summer, all in the name of perfecting the art of the wax. Hot weather and hot wax—a combination as crazy as it sounds. But it wasn't without its moments of hilarity, like the "Fragrance Spill Incident" that had me smelling like a perfume factory for days. And let's not even talk about the time I accidentally ordered the wrong version of one of the labels. Yes, that was a thing that happened.
The Critic's Corner: Friends and Family Edition
Through all of this, my friends and family have been my guinea pigs and my harshest critics. From perplexed looks to nods of approval, their feedback has been crucial. I owe them for sitting through dinner parties in an over-perfumed room and for their willingness to give my samples a sniff test at the most random times.
Meet the Stars: Bold Horizon and Outer Space
Bold Horizon is not your everyday candle. It's an experience crafted for those who crave depth and luxury, all neatly packed in a glossy black box bearing my unique, twisted "Fabricated" logo. As you lift the lid, "Enter The Wormhole" greets you, marking the beginning of a sensory journey.
Outer Space, on the other hand, invites you to unleash your adventurous spirit. When it comes to this candle, it's not just about igniting the wick; it's about igniting your imagination. A similar glossy black box holds this treasure, beckoning you to take a leap into the unknown.
Winter's Essence: Your Seasonal Serenity
As winter draws near, meet the newest addition to the lineup: Winter's Essence. Presented in an amber glass bottle, it captures the very essence of the season without any of the frills.
The Labor Behind the Glamour
The countless hours spent perfecting every aspect of these candles extended beyond the product itself. Designing the packaging was another journey. Though not a trained graphic designer, the focus was to create something that resonates with the philosophy of "Enter The Wormhole." Every font, every hue, and every line mattered. Believe me; the devil is in the details.
Looking to the Future: Hard Work Pays Off
With all the trials and tribulations behind me, the process of making batches has finally begun. And while it may have taken a lot of energy, the end is nowhere in sight. Why? Because "Into the Wormhole" is more than a catchy tagline; it’s a philosophy that I’m incredibly proud of.
