I love candles. They can brighten a room, provide a pleasant smell, or just improve your mood. I was excited when Flicker Box sent me a box to review.

| The Box |
The box is shipped by USPS and only took a couple of days to arrive. I was very surprised to see it on my doorstep so soon.
 |
| First Look |
On top, was the information card. The box smelled really good when I opened it. It reminded me of fall.
 |
| Information Card |
This month, Flicker featured Mosley Lane, Armadilla Wax Works, The Flying Farm, and Witch City Wicks.
The card also described more about each company, and how they make their candles.
 |
| Witch City Wicks Trick or Treat Tea Lights $5.50 |
Witch City Wicks is made in Salem, Ma. Each candle is made from 100% all natural soy wax, phthalate-free, fine fragrance oils, color dye, lead free, and cotton wicks. Each tea light burns 4 hours. I love the tea lights are long burning. Some tea lights only burn for an hour or less. The scent is Trick or Treat, and it is made especially for Flicker Box. The scent is a vanilla/light cinnamon smell.
 |
| Witch City Wicks Poison Apple Tea Lights $5.50 |
This is also made by Witch City Wicks for Flicker Box. The scent is Poison Apple. This has a spicy apple smell. I love these candles and they remind me of a cold crisp fall.
 |
| Mosley Lane Votive Candles $2.50 each ($7.50 total) |
These candles are made with soy wax and beeswax. Each candle is hand poured and they don't use any artificial dyes or additives. There are 3 different scents: The Witching Hour, All Hallows Eve, and Spiced Pumpkin. The company put colored stars on the bottom, to distinguish each candle. All Hallows Eve smells like buttery/vanilla. Spiced Pumpkin smells accurate. The Witching Hour smells of cinnamon.
 |
| Armadilla Wax Works Medium Floating Pumpkin Candle $10.50 for 3 ($3.50 each) |
This is not only a beautiful candle, but a floating candle. The candle will naturally go out, once it has burned down. This is my first fall decoration for the house.
 |
| The Flying Farm 31 Autumn Leaves Candle $10.50 |
This is a new business on Etsy. The owner, Rachel creates the candles out of soy and is free from dyes. She uses mason jars to hold the candles, and encourages everyone to re-use their containers, when they are used up.
 |
| Bag of Treats |
This was a fun bonus to the gift. A cute bag of candy!
 |
| Advertisements and Matches |
The Witching Hour and The Flying Farm included cards for their businesses. Flicker Box also included a book of matches.
 |
| The Whole Box |
Final Thought: The total value for this box was $32.50. This is above the $32.00 cost. As with all artisan products, there is a shipping savings. I thought all the candles complimented each other very well. All the scents were pleasing and smelled of fall. Save 10% on 3, 6, and 12 month subscriptions by using the code REVIEW2013.
