Adirondack Candle Company

Wow….wouldn’t that be a great opportunity for us at the Adirondack Candle Company.  A very close friend often says that very same thought to us all the time….”Candles for the World”…how cool.

We have grown a lot since we first started making candles back in 1993.  We started our business in 1994….but in reality we were busy trying to “figure out how to even do it” during 1993.  Not too many people know how it all started….maybe we should share it with you.  Pull up a comfortable chair and let me tell you how it all started.

Friends….all of us have them, some have many and many have few but to each of us a friend is a very important part of our life.  So it is with us at the Adirondack Candle Company, and we’re never more reminded of this then at our Annual Open House which just concluded for yet another 16th year (wow…hard to believe).  It’s always exciting to see new faces come through our door, for each new face is an opportunity to make another new friend…and you can never have enough of those.  Yet what we find so appealing and rewarding each year is sitting in our usual spot, the comfy country couches in our living room, and hearing that door swing open….and then the suspense of “who is it that’s going to walk through that door?”.  Continue reading →

So….something new.  If you aren’t creating new things and moving your business forward each and every day, then you aren’t evolving your business all the time.

“Mac” the moose is the Adirondack Candle Company’s new mascot, but he’s more than our mascot, he was born to deliver a positive outlook on life with positive messages to our followers.  This is an exciting new part to our business and we’re going to see where it leads us.

For now you can become a fan of Mac at his facebook fan page at the following link: http://www.facebook.com/DaksagreatLife

So, we hope you enjoy this new part of the Adirondack Candle Company and more importantly we hope that in the end you realize that in many ways……’Daks a great Life!

So, with only 26 days left till the busiest week of our Candle year, and while still nursing a broken ankle….I made it back into the “Candle Factory” to be of whatever help a temorary cripple can be!  Actually, as long as I stayed in this one spot I was actually pretty productive and was able to contribute once again to the business, which felt really good again.

It’s really tough to be down during this time of year but we’ve managed to figure out some different ways to do things and ultimately still get them done.  It’s still going to be a great Open House this year and we’re so very much looking forward to seeing so many dear friends that converge on our house during this time.  We’re so thankful and so blessed.

If you’re reading this we hope you can make it to the Open House.  Go to www.facebook.com/adirondackcandle and check under “events” to see the details of when and where it is.  We only ask one thing…well 2 things, first we encourage you to bring a friend who also brings a friend, etc…well you get the picture, and second….be ready to have fun!

Thanks so much for following the blog and thanks for supporting the Adirondack Candle Company and our products, we greatly appreciate it!

Have yourself a Great Adirondack Day!

Hello Everyone,
I am continuing to move forward towards the day I get the cast off my leg.  Being an avid runner and health nut, it’s tough to “sit” and do mostly nothing for so long.  There are so many things I keep thinking that I want to do, that I NEED to do….and it’s tough to let go of that and ask others for help to do what I normally just do myself.  I have great friends that have offered to help…and I have a fantastic wife and best friend who has just, as always, been my rock that I can rely on.  She’s wonderful….I am sooooo blessed!!!
