Happy New Year To All!!


     Greetings from the "North Pole" of Burlington, Connecticut!  This Winter continues to be a very trying adventure for all of us, but soon Spring will arrive and so will new beginnings.  The temperatures will rise, the days will get longer, the flowers will start to bloom, and the birds will start to sing.  Can't wait! 


     We were busy for Valentine's Day, and continue to have orders coming in throughout the Winter months, although things have slowed down considerably, and we are able to  catch up and make more inventory for our customers.  We have a few craft fairs scheduled for the Spring, so it will be nice to catch up with our old friends and acquaintenances at these events and to make new friendships.


       Everyone at Candlelight Barn has been busy making new products and re-introducing some of our client favorites, including wreaths, party favors, and holiday decorations and ornaments. Our gift baskets, pots, and small gift boxes continue to be favorites.  Our handmade bears made out of old fur coats, and ones with team logo prints are still very popular items, as are our handmade cards.  Remember, we do custom orders on all of our items.  Just ask!


     We are also working on a new line of wedding items and we will keep you updated.  Please check back as we continue this journey together!
