Alexander Calder at Segre's Iron Works, 1960's

Cant tell you how much I love these photos. The top three are by Bill Hicks, a man who was lucky enough to drive by Segre's- the Waterbury, Ct. fabricator of Calder's Stabiles- one day in the 60's to see this amazing sight, and thankfully for us had his camera! (courtesy The Mobile Factory- do read the entire post here ). And how great is the "Only Love Beats Milk" billboard?
Bottom photo likely taken the same year,  from the book Calder's Universe, a must read.

New Candle Packaging And Some New Scents

We've redesigned our packaging now that we have a hot foil letterpress, a rubber stamp maker, and a die cutting machine. The new (and sturdier) boxes are pressed with the new Wary Meyers logotype, then rubber stamped with all the type, then stuck with two stickers we made- one a cloud (or water), the other a sun (or moon). The cloud/moons are made of foil stickers (except in the case of Mainely Manly, where it's grey; and the moons are non-foil (except MM, where it's copper foil). These same stickers are then put on the candle jar, and everything looks fantastic.
New scents include Hippie Hollow- a vetiver lemon scent, Brasilia- a rosewood musk scent, and Violet Pepper.

In the shop!!
