Lighting up a room with Simple Glow -- Simple Glow Candle Review

A big part of most home's decor is the candles.  I know in our home I have a candle burning or wax melting most days out of the week.  There is just something about the pretty flame and delicious or relaxing smell that makes my house feel a little more like home.

The latest candle company I have fallen in love with is Simple Glow!  I had no idea I would love these candles so much, but am so glad I've had a chance to try out Simple Glow!



Originally founded in 2003, Simple Glow soy candles were our Aunt Suzanne's solution for budget-friendly Christmas presents.  The strong positive response that Suzanne received from friends and family prompted her to make a small batch of candles to sell at a local show. Her candles sold out on the first day, and business quickly started to build. Suzanne opened a little shop in Columbia City, IN. When Aunt Suzanne decided to move out of state, the shop was closed and candle production halted.  In 2011, Suzanne passed the business on to us.  Our mission is to make quality soy candles at a reasonable price, allowing families everywhere to enjoy the same fragrances with which we fill our home . 

The wonderful people at Simple Glow sent me two candles and scents to try.  The first candle I set to burn  was Lemon Cheesecake.  This candle came in the Large Heritage Jar.  The Heritage Jar is a classic 16 oz. mason jar filled with our Premium Soy Wax.


Candles that smell so delicious are bittersweet for me as sometimes the scent is so spot on that it makes you feel a deep need to eat whatever food the candle smells of.  This candle did just that.  The craving I have felt for a lemon cheesecake has been so strong.  I must resist though!


The other candle I was given is the Turkish Hazelnut Latte.  This candle came as a Modern Tin Candle.  The Modern Tin Candle is Premium Soy Wax poured into our new 3 oz. Modern Tin. 


This candle did the very same thing I experienced with the first.  The scent was burning go deliciously by about an hour into it, I feel a deep desire to have a Hazelnut Latte.  My daughter asked me at one point where the chocolate was, so I think she was picking up the hazelnut scent as well!


Simple Glow carries a many different options for scents and forms to have your scent brought to you.  They make Tarts for your warmer, Candles in a few different sizes and even Aroma Ornies to make your car smell so delicious!  Be sure to look them up on their website and on social media!

  19. I am just slightly addicted to candles and these sound so nice! The lemon cheesecake sounds amazing! I really don't have a favorite scent. I go seasonal. So during the fall anything apple and pumpkin type, spring anything lavender or "fresh" smelling type thing.
