Yankee Candles Launches Man Candles Line (and they’re not the first to have this idea)

by

While everyone from Saturday Night Live’s Weekend Update to National Public Radio has been abuzz about Yankee Candle company’s new Man Candles line, the only thing I can think of is how many handmade candle sellers already have lines and/or candles for men, available online. I myself already own a leather-scented candle by Milton and Margie’s Soy Wax Candles. At most Chicago-area craft shows I also find myself drooling over Bonnie handmade skin care’s line of male-oriented candles called Clyde (cute and clever name, right?). Bonnie’s Clyde candles range in scent from cedar and lemongrass to vanilla oak. Just a couple companies to keep in mind as Father’s Day approaches!
