Announcing Fusion Home’s hosting of Thymes products.

Ms. Fusion — Wed, 16 Mar 2011 00:15:17 +0000

This month we’re also happy to announce that we will begin our hosting of unique and refreshing bath and body products from Thymes, a company dedicated to the creation of special and engaging fragrances. This is an association we are very excited about, and we know once you give them a try you will be, too. We have hand-picked each of the products that we will be featuring, including refreshing candles and lotions that are sure to charm and enrapture.

We’re especially fond of the popular scent Agave Nectar.

This highly respected company has been producing scents for 30 years, and takes great pride in its contribution towards “enriching the quality of one’s daily experience” through its original and subtle creations. We are thrilled to be able to bring Thymes to Ventura!

Fusion Home Holiday Selection: Home Essence Noel Candle

Ms. Fusion — Fri, 17 Dec 2010 23:59:01 +0000

Crafted by Cynthia just for the holidays, this brand-new limited edition Home Essence candle is called “Noel.” We’ve been burning it in the store 24/7– no one can get enough of this comforting, festive scent! Cynthia describes it as a warm blend of apples and vanilla “with a hint of spruce.” Poured locally in Ventura, it’s made of 100% soy wax.

Available in-store or in our online catalog.

Fusion Home Holiday Selection: Santa’s Pretty Pets

Ms. Fusion — Thu, 02 Dec 2010 19:57:24 +0000

Santa’s pals are looking especially swanky this year. Currently in-store are these two styles of smooth metal reindeer candelabras, looking beautiful here with our set of thin beeswax candles (of course, they look lovely even without the candles). Gorgeous and unprecedented additions to holiday decor, these reindeer are the most elegant we’ve ever seen.

Fusion Home Holiday Selection: Classic Meets Contemporary

Ms. Fusion — Fri, 26 Nov 2010 23:52:41 +0000

They call it the Festival of Lights for a reason! This stately, beautiful menorah has been getting alot of attention in-store for its decidedly modern look. We like it with our 10″ white beeswax candles (not pictured). Contemporary in style with a wood base, it’s both sleek and timeless.

how do dripless tapers work?

Ms. Fusion — Mon, 15 Feb 2010 15:55:44 +0000

If you have never tried burning dripless taper candles, you would be surprised that, given the correct conditions, they work!

There are many ways dripless taper candles are made; some have thick wax on the outside and faster burning wax on the inside that evaporates as it burns. Although this type of construction is effective, it has chemical additives that may affect your air quality.

There is a more natural and method that is just as effective. Our European dripless taper candles are made with a thick, precisely centered wick that absorbs the wax as it liquifies while burning. The melted wax is absorbed into the wick, then burns off as the flame heats it. The added advantage of this high quality dripless taper is that as the taper absorbs the wax, the burn time increases. That is why our 12″ dripless taper candle will burn closer to 14 hours, that’s 2 hours longer than average!

Remember, that for any quality dripless taper candle to truly be dripless, there should not be any draft or wind near the candle. It is also important to keep the wick trimmed and the candle level. Order your favorite colors, burn and enjoy!

For more information on our dripless tapers, read our entry, dripless taper candles.

dripless taper candles

high quality european dripless taper candles with a 14 hour burn time and great colors

These high quality European dripless tapers are 12″ long and burn 14 hours.

New colors have arrived for summer including sea glass blue, violet, black and white.

Our dripless tapers are unscented, which is perfect for dinner parties when you don’t want any scents to compete with your food. If you don’t have candelabra for them, try placing them in the mouth of various size bottles, or an oblong tray with enough sand to sink them into to hold them up. Short tealight holders can be interesting holders as well with sand or rice inside to anchor the tapers or by melting some wax at the bottom of the tealight or votive holder like glue and holding the taper in the melted wax until it dries and the taper stands upright.

The best sellers have been trios of colors: aqua, chocolate and orange. Light sage, sea glass and sand or bordeaux, violet and caramel. Wrap a bundle in raffia or ribbon and present as a hostess or housewarming gift anyone would be delighted with.

As with all candles, exercise caution by never leaving open flames unattended and keeping away from drafts.

5 wedding gift ideas: the “art of the detail”

Ms. Fusion — Mon, 11 May 2009 11:00:22 +0000

With June being the most popular month for weddings, most of us may have a wedding or two to attend. Although most brides have a bridal registry, if you feel you know the couple better than to gift them a blender, here are some unique wedding gift concepts that would be treasured by the future bride and groom to be.

We compiled this list from years of feedback from customers of what gifts were a hit (and which ones were not when brought back for exchange!) Our top 5 wedding gift ideas:

Candle Holders
Photo Frames and Vases
Servers
Table Settings
Aroma

When thinking outside of the registry box, think of how you can share “the art of the detail” with the future newlyweds. It seems that the reason the top 5 wedding gift categories are so popular are because they are not items of necessity but add a bit of beauty, quality or elegance to their everyday new life together.

What do we mean by the “art of detail”? We can all eat off a bare table or spray grocery store air freshener in a room (if anything), or we can use colorful place settings and quality scented candles or room diffusers for ambiance. Adding some beauty to everyday experiences reminds us to slow down and enjoy the moment. Is there a special friend or family member with a talent for “the art of the detail” in your life? Does a wonderful scent reminds you of someone’s home? Are the lovely table linens and taper candles they use make your meal feel special? If this reminds you of someone, then the answer would be yes. Take that inspiration and pass “the art of the detail” on to someone you know and love!

Be sure to check back. We will be listing the top selling items in each category throughout the month.
