Cork & Wick Candles

10/20/2026

“Let me just start making candles. It’ll be fun.” - me, 2.5 years ago. 🫠

Don’t get me wrong, it’s still one of the best decisions I’ve ever made in my life! I just highly underestimated what it takes to run a “small” business. One of the best problems I love to have 🥰

I have stocked candles, diffusers, and other products at Milk & Honey for 2 years now, and I can’t say enough good things about them. 🥹

First, they take NO commissions from their artists. They let them stock in their space out of pure joy of helping small businesses in our community. For this reason alone, go support them. 💛

Second, the staff at Milk & Honey is always so welcoming and so sweet when I drop off products and order my drinks. Support them for this reason also.

There are so many other reasons why everyone should support them, but I won’t go in to them now. The point of this post is to tell you…

✨We have 4️⃣ gift cards to Milk & Honey that we are giving out with random orders at the Downtown Topeka Farmer’s Market tomorrow! Come on out, smell some candles, get some diffusers or some perfume, and potentially walk away with a coffee, tea, or snack on us!✨

For those of you who don’t know me personally, I live a life of organized chaos. What overwhelms others, brings me comfort. While it doesn’t look like it, I know where every item is and when I put it there (mostly 🥴).

I’ve found what works for me, and I’m living it!

I got 2 cases of big jars in late last night, but my husband and I are going to Colorado for his birthday tomorrow for a long weekend. Which means no Farmer’s Market. 😭 LUCKILY I have the very best friends who are willing to go set up at our table and sell Cork & Wick candles. 

Which meant I had to get to pouring!! I poured a looooot of pumpkin scents so I hope you guys are ready for all things fall on Saturday! 🎃💛🧡

I won’t be there, but Cork & Wick will be. I’m so thankful for the community for showing up for me, my friends who show up when I can’t, and my husband who lets me start businesses instead of doing the dishes. 🫣

I’ll see you all in spirit on Saturday! 🕯️
