“Charlie” is taking the CFA level III in two weeks. For anyone out there familiar with this test, you know the loneliness that the wife can experience in never EVER seeing her husband for several months while he studies! The study material comes in stack of books that measure well over a foot thick, and the passing rate is usually around 40% even among test-takers who study for 500+ hours.
Lately, the best way I can support him in his study efforts are to just clear up all nights and weekends and let him study his heart out. However, when I came across Lumnique, a customizable candle gift company, I thought this might be a perfect way to lift spirits, show my thoughtfulness, and encourage enlightenment!
The deluxe box was delivered quickly and the clean, crisp, and dark black box is very impressive. Very sturdy, and one that I will definitely be using again to store other things. What a lovely gift to behold! These candles come in high-quality heavy glass jars, with resealable lids–I love being able to seal up the yummy scent when it is not in use.
Typically, ordinary candles are made in a scent paired with a specific color. You know, red Christmas candles and smell like peppermint, green candles that smell like pine, etc. Lumnique allows you to create any combination of intent, color, and scent to really create a one-of-a-kind gift!
With “Charlie” in mind, I started with the intent: GOOD LUCK
Next I chose his favorite color: SKY BLUE
And then I picked a scent I knew he loved: CEDAR
Completely unique, right? The candle comes with a descriptive card explaining how the candle was custom made, and what each of the choices represent. As in, the Good Luck intention is meant to remind you that impossible situations can become attainable miracles. The sky color can symbolize patience, intuition, intelligence, practicality, etc. The cedar scent can awaken the senses with its invigorating capabilities. The detailed certificate is a really nice touch, and it makes the gift definitely more personal and intentional.
I was beaming as I handed over Charlie’s gift! I’ve made sure to light it for him every night when he sits down to study 🙂 Soak in all those “good luck” aromas.
Now if you’re debating between the regular and the deluxe box, choose the deluxe because the matches alone make it worth it! They are top-notch, high quality, very long and thick matches that strike effortlessly and burst into a strong flame. Charlie, the Eagle Scout, was very impressed and mentioned that they might be his favorite part.
