Textures Handmade Market

I am in awe of the company, Votivo.  They make wonderful candles – they smell great – I even think you can sense in the aroma how each one is made by hand.  They are not like your ordinary candle, they are special.  It’s exciting to know that Textures is now carrying them.  We are so lucky!  I wanted you to hear how the shop describes themselves.  Oh — and I know for a fact that one guy with really big arms does all the hand-pressed seals.  I wonder if one arm is bigger than the other.

Votivo(voh-tee-voh): Expressing a vow, wish, or desire.

Since its inception in 1994, Votivo has built a worldwide reputation for high quality home fragrances and distinctive packaging. Each Votivo product is a culmination of care and commitment to detail. Each candle is hand-crafted. Each tissue is hand-wrapped. Each pewter seal is hand-pressed. Each candle is specially made. At the heart of every Votivo candle is a unique fragrance meticulously formulated and layered to reflect depth, richness, and complexity. Our candles are famous for their ability to quickly fill a room with wonderful fragrances. As one of the original domestically made luxury candle lines, Votivo passionately pursues excellence in the art of candle making.

I love to wrap presents.  I can sit for hours with a warm cup of joe and lots of fun wrapping materials.  I sometimes wish I had more things to wrap because it is so much fun.  I saw this video and thought this was the best present ever, no matter what is inside!
