Acorns’ Annual season of trunk shows highlights the talented creators of fine art, designer jewelry, and home goods.
Each Southern Bungalow candle is hand-poured in a reusable statement piece container using an organic and clean-burning coconut wax. Coconut wax is odorless until scented with cosmetic-grade fragrances and essential oils. Each fragrance is carefully curated and inspired by nature, my love of travel, and my fondest memories of growing up in the South. Southern Bungalow Co. was created from a love for fragrances and all things beautiful for the home.
