Spiced Cider and Pumpkin Pie Anyone?

This dreamy Southern weather has been so wonderful lately. So unseasonably mild for August with a hint of fall in the air. Sigh.... Perhaps it is simply the scent of Umbra Essence Spiced Cider candles wafting through our store at the moment that is making my mood turn to Autum. A fresh batch of Spiced Cider and Pumpkin Pie candles has just been made and are now available in our gift gallery. The burnt orange textures and layers of warm browns with hints of deep red are as hard to resist as jumping into a a giant pile of leaves in the backyard. And the warm and comforting longlasting fragrance is just what any home needs to create a welcoming essence.

If you haven't been into Umbra Essence Candles and Gifts lately, come back in and see all that is new. We have beautiful porcelain luminaires, new pottery and jewelry. Plus we'll be adding 5 new artists to our store and will have some news later this month about their work.

SUMMER SALE:
50% off now on select pottery. Including birdbaths, birdhouses, pillar holders and ornaments!

SEE YOU SOON!

St. Elmo Businesses on News Channel 9!

Great news everyone!

Local celebrity from News Channel 9, Don Welch, visited the St. Elmo business district recently to sniff around and see all the new businesses that are sprouting up. Our community will be highlighted on his popular "This 'n That" feature airing this Monday, August 11th at 12:30pm (set your DVR'S!). It is so exciting to see people coming in from other parts of the city and discovering St. Elmo again for the first time. It is a wonderful time to be a business owner in St. Elmo right now. With all of the good energy and great people surrounding us how can go wrong? And with the help of stories like this on the air, the buzz is surely on!
