We want to extend a big "THANK YOU" to all of our customers who have already called, emailed, or stopped in to pre-order for our PANDORA Bracelet event this Friday, Saturday, and Sunday.  There are still two days left to pre-order if you want to avoid the rush and craziness of the holiday weekend!

Don't forget - ANY purchase from PANDORA's jewelry line totaling $150 or more makes you eligible for a FREE bracelet during the event! Whether your purchase is from the cool, flowing lines of Liquid Silver, the breathtaking beauty of  LovePods, the stackable fun of the Ring Upon Ring collection, the customizable creativity of the Compose earring collection, or the coordinating elegance of the Stories collection, if it totals over $150 on the 3rd, 4th, or 5th of September, you will get a free bracelet!
 
So if you are one of those lucky ladies with an overabundance of charms and not enough bracelet to put them all on, why not delve into one of PANDORA's other collections, pick out a piece or two or three (or four or five... PANDORA's other jewelry is almost as addicting as their charm bracelet!), and use the free bracelet to give a home to your floating charms!

Even though it's a holiday weekend, American Candle will still be open during regular business hours: Friday 10am-9pm, Saturday 9:30am-9pm, and Sunday 9:30am-5:30pm.

Remember: If you aren't in the area you can still call in an order!  (570) 629-3388 or (800) 78-CANDLE.

American Candle Update August 19, 2009: Pandora has ARRIVED!

American Candle Update: August 19, 2009

Life has its moments… make them unforgettable!
Pandora jewelry has arrived at American Candle!

What is Pandora? Pandora was launched in North America in 2003 with the vision of opening a world of opportunities for women to express their own personal style. Pandora offers a unique collection of charm bracelets and matching jewelry.


How does it work? A Pandora Charm Bracelet is an ever-changing, growing part of a woman’s jewelry collection. It doesn’t have to start out as a “finished” bracelet – building it and watching it take shape is half the fun! A Pandora bracelet can be started with as little as a bracelet, one charm, and a couple of clips, and can be added to from there. Whether you’re celebrating being a year older, an exam brighter, a child richer, or perhaps it’s just a regular Wednesday that suddenly wasn’t so routine after all; life is full of anniversaries great and small. Make a wish list of the charms, spacers, or clips that you are hunting for. Share it with your family and friends. Suddenly, it’s not so hard to find the ‘impossible to shop for’ woman a gift that she’ll not only appreciate, but wear on a regular basis!

How can I find out more? If you have not already done so and would like to be put on our Pandora Preferred Customer List, please reply to this email with your Name, Address, Phone, and Email Address and we will add you to the list, and you’ll be the first to know about new Pandora arrivals, releases, and events!

American Candle: BIG UPDATE! April 28. 2009

American Candle Update: April 28, 2009

What's New In-Store

American Candle has been doing some remodeling!

Our front room, which formally held our American Candles, has been completely revamped from floor to ceiling and now houses our Ladies Boutique!  Did you know there were large windows in that room?  We had nearly forgotten about them, hidden behind those deep shelves all those years.  With this remodel we are introducing several new and innovative product lines!

Switchflops
Switchflops are a fashionable and fun new addition to any wardrobe!  Easily changable straps allow for a wide variety of styles - from casual to classy - without having a closet full of shoes!  Just buy a pair of Switchflops, then i
nterchangeable straps for every occasion!  Velcro backs on the straps and on the shoe make for a complete style change in under a minute!  "Change your look without changing your sole."  Once you treat your feet to some Switchflops, there's no going back to regular flip-flops for the summers - you can save tons of room in your closet for more important things, like new handbags!

Baekgaard Handbags and Accessories
Baekgaard bags are beautifully crafted from fine, brightly colored leathers - sure to get a 'wow' from anyone that notices your bag.  Featuring lots of great accessories, Baekgaard offers the ability to coordinate nearly everything with your handbag: from the credit card case, wallet, and PDA holder, to contact lens travel cases and the headband you hold your hair back with while you stroll the town, Baekgaard has it all to keep you looking sharp!

Baggllini Handbags
Baggallini Inc. was founded in 1995 by two flight attendants who recognized a need for more fashionable and functional travel accessories.  From teenie clutches to big roomy totes, and everything in between, Baggallini baggs (note the double G) put the FUN in FUNctional!  They feature lots of organization - pockets, pouches, credit card slots, lipstick and pen holders, and more!  Made from high quality materials, these handbaggs are sturdy and organized, just what we all need!  The International Collection is particularly stunning, featuring big bold zippers and clasps that are sure to make a statement!  They also offer an "ECO Bagg" line that features baggs made from recycled plastic bottles!  Lots of organization and lots of room means places to store lots of stuff, like...

Crabtree and Evelyn
Long before the 'natural' and 'wellness' movement became popular, Crabtree & Evelyn was wholeheartedly embracing the riches of the natural world. Their inspirational model is the early home apothecary, or 'still room' as it was called in England. Still rooms existed in a time when the garden played an integral role in daily life - a time when fresh flowers, herbs and fruits were distilled to make fragrant waters for the bath and soothing essences for the skin. It is this unique relationship with nature that Crabtree & Evelyn diligently seeks to preserve.  The selection of high quality lotions, creams, and other toiletry items that Crabtree & Evelyn has to offer are second to none.

WoodWick Candles
Sit back and enjoy the relaxing fragrance and sound of a WoodWick Candle.  Featuring wicks made of wood, these candles feature a soft crackling sound as they burn and give off simply wonderful, rich fragrances.  WoodWick also offers selected fragrances in reed diffusers, for places not suitable for a candle.

Accessories
Our new boutique has a variety of fun accessories as well.  New featured items are "Finders Key Purse" keychains, made to hook over the side of your handbag so you'll always know where your keys are, and "The Handbag Hook" which features a monogrammed inital, and hangs over the edge of a table to hold your handbag up off the floor while out dining, at the office, or even at home if space is limited, and is small enough to slip into your bag when not in use!

What was formerly our second candle room now holds a huge selection of Hand Painted Art Glass.  Beautifully crafted Art Panels, Trays, Tables, Frames, and more are sure to make a great addition to any home decor.  Yankee Candles are still in this room, as well as Soy Candles and accessories.

So if we put in all this great new stuff, where did all the candles go?  We've moved them back past the Candy Room, into the back part of the Country and Holiday room!  Featuring a brand new candlemaking area, American Candle will now be hand pouring candles on the premesis so customers can watch.  We are still in the process of moving everything in and getting set up, but we are planning to have our candlemaking area fully functional in time for summer!



What's New On American-Candle.com

Information on our Personal Shopping Nights - a fun way to get together, shop, and raise money for your school or other organization - has been added to our website under the Fundraising link.

American Candle wants to encourage all of our website's shoppers to make their holiday purchases early to ensure timely delivery for Christmas.  With the large size and volume of holiday orders there can be 1-3 days for an order to be processed through our shipping department before it is picked up by UPS.  Also, there are the occasional times when we sell out of an item in our retail store and it will have to be ordered in, adding to shipping time.  We appreciate our customers' understanding and patience with us during the busy holiday season.

With that out of the way, onward to our update!  We’ve been busy getting new lines up for your shopping pleasure – there have been 4 new ones added since the last update!

Cherished Teddies – Located under our Collectibles Section - Priscilla and Glenn Hillman's adorable teddies continue to delight collectors across the globe while winning the hearts of new gift-buyers as well.  For more than 15 years these sweet-faced creations have been reminding folks of happy childhood memories and commemorating special occasions and time spent with family and friends.  The soulful expressions and heart-warming sentiments of each Cherished Teddies figurine offer collectors emotional fulfillment and a sense of belonging.

Circle of Love – Located under our Wedding & Special Occasions Section  - Stunning, graceful and fluid... the timeless Circle of Love collection captures artist Kim Lawrence's interpretation of that perfect moment of peace and contentment when real love is embraced.

Adora Dolls – Located under our Collectibles Section – Adora Dolls are simply Adora-ble!  The magic of Adora's creativity shines throughout the entire Name Your Own Baby® collection with its two new ‘face-sculpts’ and surprising combinations of color, pattern and texture. From a country cowboy to a sophisticated party dress…this year’s Name Your Own Baby® line presents the collector with an astonishing assortment of choices.

Russian Blue Luster Jewelry - Located under our new Jewelry Section! - The Russian Blue Luster collection features beautiful high-quality fashion jewelry that  has even our employees doing a triple-take!  These high quality stones retain every jeweler specification: color, clarity, cut, and carat weight.  This stunning selection of rings, necklaces, earrings, and braclets are set in high quality jeweler's metals electroplated with 14K gold or platinum.  If the beauty of this line doesn't draw you in, perhaps the price will - these pieces are being featured at 50% off the manufacturer's suggested retail price!  Wow!

We’ve been busy getting new lines up for your shopping pleasure – there have been 3 new ones added since the last update!

Pooh & Friends – Located under our Collectibles Section - Express your Friendship, Love, and Best Wishes as you celebrate Birthdays and Holidays all year long.  From special techniques like using colored bisque porcelain to give characters a richer look, to the use of multiple molds for more complex pieces, to the fine craftsmanship of hand painting and even applying individual decals like Tigger’s stripes, no detail is overlooked in this stunning collection.  The final touch to each piece – a 14k gold-plated pewter honeybee or acorn charm – sets this collection apart.  Pooh and his friends are ready to be collected or given as the perfect gift.  Come celebrate the gift of Friendship with Pooh & Friends.

Foundations – Located under our Wedding & Special Occasions Section  - Inspired to express words of faith, family, and home with a personal and unique concept, master artist Karen Hahn designed Foundations which marries her own handwriting with lovingly chosen thoughts and prayers.  When designing the Foundations collection, Karen imagined each piece as “a gift of inspiration.”  Share Foundations with someone special and you’ll share meaningful, timeless, and touching gifts of inspiration meant to be cherished for generations.

Home Grown – Located under our Collectibles Section – Home Grown is growing and flourishing in kitchens everywhere!  Bursting with color and character, these pieces are sure to be 100% of your daily smile requirement.  Home Grown pieces are a natural in the kitchen but can also accent a table setting or anywhere that people enjoy being allowed to play with their food! 

Wizard of Oz Event Update – Our Wizard of Oz event on the 11th  We had lots of fun, especially with John Satterfield of San Francisco Music Box Company!  A photo update is posted under the Wizard of Oz Event link on the website.

Charming Tails Character Event: THIS SATURDAY at American Candle!!

We're in the final countdown to our Charming Tails event!  Less than a week to go and we're eagerly awaiting Mackenzie Mouse's arrival!  Mackenzie will be here Saturday from 12pm to 3pm, as the star of our Character Event!

This year’s theme is, “Spending Time With Family And Friends Is The Best Time Of All”.  Two special limited editions will only be available during the event. One is, “My World Began When I Met You” which shows Mackenzie and Maxine riding on a dinosaur.  The other, “Mini Curio Cabinet.,” has 3 doors which open. How do they tie in to one another?  "My World Began When I Met You" comes with a tiny version of the figurine... it's the perfect size to be placed inside the curio cabinet!

We will be having several contests during the event!

Participate in the “Time Theme” decorating contest.  You can decorate anything you feel is related to “time.” Bring this with you to the event.  It could be a kitchen timer, egg timer, stop watch, watch, clock, calendar etc., anything you feel related to “time.”   Be imaginative as judging will be held at American Candle on Saturday!

Be creative and come dressed from another period of “time” other than the 21st century! This will be fun - American Candle staff is donning their costumes from the past as well - and  there will be a judging for the best costumes!

CHEESY BUCKS ARE BACK!

When you participate in the costume contest, put an entry in the time decorating contest; make in-store purchases, you will earn “cheesy bucks.”  You will be able to cash these in for an assortment of different items.  Even being a current Leaf and Acorn Member will earn you one!

Are you a Leaf and Acorn Club Member?  We will be having a drawing for a large size version of the "Celebrate" figurine.  One lucky club member will get to go home with this extremely popular, rare figurine!

If you're not going to be able to attend, there's still time to pre-order your event pieces.  Just call or place your order online, and we'll ship your pieces to you!

Web Updates:
  We've been busy preparing for the Character Event, but don't fret, we've added a few new things to the website for your browsing and buying pleasure - a selection of Byers Choice Carolers!  These  beautiful collectible Christmas figurines are hand-made here in Pennsylvania and are a beautiful addition to any holiday decor!  They also make great gifts, whether the recipient is a current collector or just someone who enjoys Christmas decorating!

Holiday Votive Candle Garden
New Holiday Decor and Candle Accessories!

It might be April but we're starting to feel a little festive at American Candle! New holiday votive gardens, table decor, ornaments, and more are available from Dennis East! Don't wait to get your holiday gifts and decor purchased, pick them up now so you won't have that mad scramble when the holidays arrive! We have new selections in Votive and Tealight holders, Pillar Candle Holders, Christmas Items, and Seasonal Home Decor. We're also trying something new to make ordering easier for our customers. Now, on select Candle Accessory items, you will have the option to add a dozen votives of your fragrance-choice to your order without having to go to the votive candle section of the website! We hope this convenient option will make ordering coordinating candles to go with your candleholders easy and hassle-free. Don't need votives? Just leave the drop-down menu marked "No Votives"! No problem!

We have been asked by many customers to put Kitchen Fairies, Jim Shore, Growing Up Today Girls, and Foundations Angels (to name a few) up on our website. We have not forgotten these customer requests, and are doing everything in our power to get these put up for your shopping pleasure. We really appreciate your patience as we work on this.
