Great news! my candle dealer bugs rock is back with a new line for spoopy season! Order now and get these monstrous creations:
- bad apple (plus baby sample powerful enough to spoil somebody’s bunch)
- a sweet hex (feel like Pandora (not the streaming service) as you open the lid! then instead of hope you are left with a sweet candle to burn)
- mischief nite (this moon cannot be obscured, knows what you did)
- evil side up (I guess Sam I Am wanted the ham)
Plus some bugs rock matches and stickers and maybe some little plastic scaries and a temporary tattoo!
As a bonus you can guess which of these made me sneeze a bunch when I opened the box! (I’m fine, my allergies and I have come to an agreement. Thanks for asking!)
