Dear Reader, I have to confess that I don’t know a whole lot about candles. It’s easy to imagine that Slow North, our latest entry into the Spotlight Series, would generally not be something that comes up on my radar.

But I’m very happy they did.

When I learned about their dedication to healthy living and shopping local, I had not doubt I wanted them to be part of the program.

You should really settle in and learn more about them.

I’m constantly inspired by other mothers. I know now, first-hand, how this gig feels, and it’s not for the faint of heart. While the days are full of precious moments that replenish our joy and enthusiasm, it’s tough to ignore the physical and emotional challenges that accompany all the goodness. However, moms seem to figure it out – finding a perfect balance of energy and grace to love their children well – over and over again.

I’m particularly blown away by moms who find avenues through which to share their child-ignited passions and wisdom with other people. For that reason, I was honored to interview Michelle Simmons of Slow North on how motherhood carved her path in the entrepreneurial world.

Plus, Michelle dished on some of her Austin favorites, local makers and Instagrammers you should be following!

A feature about our limited edition collaboration with Basil Hayden’s® Bourbon:

The Barman's Candle Set

This fall, Basil Hayden’s® Bourbon approached Austin candle-maker Michelle Hartle of Slow North to craft a handmade item for their Sipping Companion Collection to enjoy during the holiday season. The Barman’s Candle Set met and exceeded the ask by combining senses to create a truly memorable sipping experience.
