IKE LOA CANDLE CO.

THE ADVENT CALENDARS ARE BACK… AND THIS YEAR, WE WENT ALL OUT.

If you know, you know.

Our Advent Calendars sell out every single year, and this year we created three completely different ways to count down to the holidays. Three boxes. Three very different surprises. And every single one is packed with over $400 in value for $150.

This is the kind of holiday shopping we like.

BOX ONE | HOUSE OF ALOHA 12 DAY ADVENT

Twelve days. Twelve surprises. And a beautiful collection of curated jewelry from House of Aloha.

Every box is different, which means even we don’t know exactly what everyone will open. What we do know? Each calendar is valued at over $400.

BOX TWO | ‘IKE LOA 12 DAY ADVENT

Twelve days of self care, little luxuries, and ‘Ike Loa favorites.

The kind of calendar that makes you actually look forward to opening the next day. A little something for your body, a little something for your soul, and a very good excuse to take some time for yourself.

Over $400 in value.

BOX THREE | ‘IKE LOA 24 DAY ADVENT

For the person who wants a little something every single day.

Twenty-four days of ‘Ike Loa self care and surprises to carry you through the holiday season. Because December is busy enough. You deserve something that is just for you.

Over $400 in value.

$150 EACH. $400+ VALUE.

And here is the important part:

PRE-SALE OPENS OCTOBER 1 AT 10:00 AM.

These are PRE-ORDER ONLY and will be available for pickup Saturday, November 28, just in time for the holidays.

No discounts. No points. No exceptions.

And once they’re gone, they’re gone.

We say this every year, and every year we mean it: don’t wait until you see them in the shop. Get on the list.

Set the alarm. October 1. 10:00 AM.

Because “I was going to order one” is not going to feel very good when they’re sold out.

WE HAVE A WINNER!

Thank you so much to everyone who entered our giveaway! We loved seeing all the entries and cannot wait to do more of these!

, CONGRATULATIONS! You and your friends have won a FREE Fall Workshop at the shop!

Get ready for candles, fall scents, good friends, and a whole lot of fun. We’ll see you at the shop!

🍂 17 FALL SCENTS! 🍂

17 scents, 17 ways to smell amazing this season. From cozy and sweet to warm, fruity, floral and a little unexpected, there’s a scent for every nose!

There’s just something about the smell of coffee.

That warm, rich aroma can bring on feelings of comfort and happiness before you even take a sip. It’s one of those scents that can instantly make a space feel cozy, familiar, and just a little happier.

Maybe that’s part of the magic behind Macadamia Chai Latte… because this one sold out in ONE DAY.

The good news? The Return of the Mac is happening Monday.

Macadamia Chai Latte will be back, filling your space with that cozy combination of coffee, macadamia and chai that makes fall feel just a little better.

If you missed it, Monday is your chance. And if you already have one burning at home, you already know why.

Happy Aloha Friday!

Super short today… I know I’ve been quiet! I’ve been busy fulfilling our resort orders, so it’s been a WEEK! And thank you for keeping us busy enough to create all those holes in the shop. 😂 We’ll be refilling them all this weekend!

Tito will be at the market this weekend, but he’s in a different spot this time, so make sure you find him and say hi!

Have a great weekend!

One of the biggest myths in business is that everyone in the same industry is your competition.

I just don’t believe that.

Small business is hard. Really, really hard. And when you’re in it, you know the late nights, the reinvestment, the risk, the decisions, the things that don’t work, and how much of yourself goes into building something from an idea.

So when you see someone doing what you do, I think you should see someone who understands the hustle. Not someone you need to knock down.

Tonight, three candlers sat around a table at Get Toasted, and I loved every minute of it.

Three women. Three businesses. Three different stories, styles and ways of doing things.

And instead of competition, I saw community.

Women sharing knowledge, talking shop, laughing, asking questions and genuinely wanting to see each other succeed.

Because women supporting women shouldn’t be conditional on whether we sell the same thing.

There is room for all of us.

Different brands. Different customers. Different stories. Different dreams.

The table is big. We can all eat.

And honestly, business gets a whole lot more beautiful when we stop worrying about who is sitting next to us and start making room for them, too.

Tonight was a really good reminder of that.

Thank you, Get Toasted , for giving us a place to gather, and thank you to the two women who shared the table with me tonight. I’m grateful for the conversation, the laughs and the reminder that there is so much more to gain from lifting each other up than tearing each other down.

There’s enough room here for all of us. Always.

Toasted Marshmallow Gelato is BACK IN STOCK!

Now, I know we’ve been giving Copper a whole lot of attention lately… and listen, she deserves it. But let’s not forget we have 17 Fall scents.

SEVENTEEN. 😳😳

Yeah. We know. We may have gotten a little carried away.

But here’s the thing… there is a scent for every nose.

Sweet? Absolutely.
Nostalgic? Yep.
Tropical? You know we had to.
Deep and moody? Always.
A little unconventional? We have those too.

And then there’s Toasted Marshmallow Gelato.

She’s gourmand, but not flat or overly sweet. There’s texture, warmth and just the slightest kiss of smoke that makes you want to keep smelling it. No wonder she’s a fan favorite.

And now she’s back where she belongs.

So if you’ve been waiting for Toasted Marshmallow Gelato, your time has come.

And if you haven’t smelled the Fall collection yet… well, you have 17 opportunities to find your new favorite.

Come see what your nose has to say.

On this Aloha Friday, we pause.

We pause to remember September 11, 2001, a day when the world seemed to stop, and life as we knew it changed forever.

We remember the thousands of lives lost that day. We remember the families who lost mothers, fathers, sons, daughters, husbands, wives, friends and loved ones. We remember the first responders who ran toward danger, the heroes who gave everything, and the countless people whose lives were forever changed.

We remember those who lost not only loved ones, but their sense of safety, their homes, their communities and pieces of a life they could never get back.

Twenty-five years later, we still remember.

May we never forget the lives behind the numbers. May we never forget the courage, compassion and kindness that emerged in the darkest hours. And may we continue to carry those lessons forward by choosing love, extending kindness and caring for one another.

Today, we remember.
Today, we honor.
Today, we pause.

With aloha, we remember them all.

September 11, 2001
Never forgotten.
