✨ Vendor Spotlight: Flame To Wick Candle Co. ✨

Can we just take a minute to appreciate this little work of art? 😍

This Sea Glass candle from Flame To Wick Candle Co. has completely caught my eye. From the beautiful swirls that look like ocean waves to the realistic “shoreline” details, it’s almost too pretty to light… almost. 🌊🤍

And the scent? It smells like a peaceful day by the water—fresh, clean, and relaxing. It’s one of those candles that makes you take a deep breath the second you pick it up.

This is just one of the many amazing candles they have available here at Desert Mail & Market, and I love getting to showcase the incredible talent of our local makers.

💙 Stop in, give it a sniff (you’ll thank me later!), and check out all the beautiful creations from Flame To Wick Candle Co.

Stay tuned… this is the first of many vendor spotlights! We have so many talented makers in our shop, and I can’t wait to introduce you to each of them. 🌵🛍️

✨ ONE YEAR ✨
Tomorrow marks ONE YEAR since we opened the doors at Desert Mail and Market, and wow, what a journey it’s been.
When I first took this leap, I had a vision, but it’s all of YOU who brought it to life. From day one, you showed up, supported local, spread the word, and truly made this little market feel special.

To my family and friends, thank you doesn’t even begin to cover it. From helping me get the doors open, to your constant encouragement, providing my signs on the building, decorating, helping bring my logo to life, and all of the donations, whether it was your time or items, this wouldn’t exist without you. Your love and support mean everything to me.

And to this amazing community, thank you for your continued support and generosity. So many of you have contributed donations, shopped local, shared kind words, and helped this space grow into something truly special.

This past year has been filled with so many memories, our mailbox customers, the excitement of bringing in local vendors, fresh baked sourdough and other goodies, honey, food trucks, puzzle swaps, and all the conversations, laughs, and connections made along the way. Watching this space grow into something the community enjoys and relies on has been the most rewarding part of all.

Here’s to year TWO, bigger, better, and full of even more memories 💛

Thank you for being part of this journey.
