This summer, I asked my friend Mackenzie of The Click Chick Photography to join me on a field trip to the aromatic Rewined Candles Factory. While I may have procrastinated in getting the post up, I’m still daydreaming about the delicious scents and the wonderful people that make Rewined one of our local favorites. Anita, their marketing gal, and a wonderful candle maker in her own right, was kind enough to give us a peak inside their world and share the tale of how our favorite wicks were born. The story of Rewined Candles immediately made me think, “How did I not think of that?!” Founder Adam Fetsch had been working in the food & bev industry and regularly witnessed the disposal of countless wine bottles. Soon a light bulb went off and he figured out the perfect way to re-purpose them - wine bottle candles with scents that mimic the tasting notes of wine. Genius! In addition the popular wine scents (Chardonnay, Pinot Noir, Merlot, etc.) they've recently added the Produce line to their repertoire. These lovelies bring the fresh scents of the farm right into your living room (think Carrot, Cilantro, Honey, Melon and more). I'm currently obsessing over the Fall seasonal, which I'm hoping will become a staple, the Fig. Our favorite part - these beauties are the perfect addition to your wedding day weekend. Whether it's favors at your wedding shower or a parting gift for your guests at your reception, everyone's nostrils will thank you! Oh, and our friends at Rewined could use your help. They're a finalist in the 2014 Martha Stewart American Made Contest and would love for you to throw them a vote - or two!
