Crash Candles Featuring Angela Adams Line

by

Artist and designer Angela Adams has created a line of eco-friendly scented soy candles in glass tumblers that feature painted natural scenes. Angela also designs hand-woven rugs, bedding and home accessories.

There are eight different designs and scents in the line, but the one I received (shown here) is called Cloud. The artwork depicts whimsical painted clouds and birds in blue. The soy candle is smartly packaged without plastic in a pretty decorated cardboard box.

Since this scented candle is 100% soy wax, it lasts a long time and the beautiful tumbler is of course reusable. The cotton wick burns brightly and the lavender scent is more earthy (hippie like?) than floral.

My preference leans more towards the floral, but it’s still a pleasant fragrance. The men in my family were mad about it!

Candle Purchase Information

The suggested retail price of each 7.5 oz. tumbler is $24.95. It’s a little pricey for a candle, but not if you consider that you’re paying for a unique and permanent painted design.

Crash Candles is featuring the line, so visit their website to view the remaining candle collection. Crash also features several other candle/art collections by contemporary designers including Zuz Design, Binth and Lotta Jansdotter.

Alternately, you can see Angela’s home décor products along with her candles at Angelaadams.com.

Etsy Spotlight – The Quilted Jacket You’ll Want to Make and Wear All Year

Welcome back to our Sunday Etsy Spotlight Series, where we bring you the best handmade inspiration from creative Etsy sellers across the globe. At CraftGossip.com, we love supporting small businesses, and this weekly spotlight is our way of helping indie pattern designers get the attention they deserve—while giving you fresh DIY motivation every week.

This week’s feature? The stunning Clover Quilted Jacket Sewing Pattern—a cozy-chic staple that belongs in every handmade wardrobe.

You’ve seen quilted jackets trending everywhere from high-end boutiques to farmer’s markets, and now you can make your very own. The Clover Quilted Jacket has that perfect blend of structured warmth and effortless style.

It’s the kind of garment that looks like you bought it from an expensive slow-fashion brand—but feels even better because you made it yourself.

What we love about this pattern is how approachable it is. Whether you’re already deep into your garment-sewing era or just ready to venture beyond tote bags and pouches, this jacket is a satisfying project. It’s a straightforward, step-by-step process with enough visual flair to make it fun.

And the best part? That quilted texture means you can use up your favorite scraps or even repurpose an old quilt for a totally one-of-a-kind look.

Make it with florals for a romantic cottagecore vibe, or try solids in linen or canvas for a modern, minimalist touch. This jacket is versatile enough to throw over dresses, jeans, even cozy lounge sets. It’s not just a sewing project—it’s a wardrobe essential.

Plus, the drop shoulders and simple collar give it a relaxed feel without sacrificing shape. It’s put-together comfort, and who doesn’t need more of that?

Here at CraftGossip, we believe in handmade—both in the projects we create and the creators we support. Etsy sellers are the heartbeat of the DIY community, pouring their time, energy, and creativity into patterns that help you bring beauty into your life.

This series is our way of celebrating them. Each Sunday, we shine a light on an Etsy pattern that deserves a spot on your sewing table—and in your closet.

If you’ve been dreaming of that one cozy jacket you can throw over anything, the Clover Quilted Jacket is the project to make next. Snag the pattern here on Etsy and start dreaming up your fabric combinations.

Tell us—would you go boho with patchwork or sleek with neutrals? Let’s chat in the comments!

 Join us next Sunday for another Etsy Spotlight. We’ll keep the indie love going—one amazing pattern at a time.
