Seaside Memories of Mom
03.08.13
We are thrilled to have discovered Joyce Grace Fragrances a Costa Mesa based company that creates all natural hand-poured soy candles with high quality soy wax, wicks and fragrance oils. Each candle's scent is named in loving memory of Kerry Pettis’ mother who passed away from brain cancer when Kerry was just 14.
Kerry grew up in Corona del Mar where she recalls happy memories of times spent with her mom and siblings on the beach. Upon lighting a candle you can experience through scent the happy times she felt with her mom: 50/50 smells like orange and vanilla (her mom loved 50/50 Bars); So Tan, smells like coconut and pineapple suntan lotion, her mom loved having a great tan: and other candles such as El Morro, Big Corona, and Endless Summer have their unique scents with hints of aged teakwood and patchouli; or fresh lemongrass, mandarin zest, leafy greens, lily and rosewood.
Joyce Grace Fragrances are available online at Joyce Grace Fragrances and at A Fine Affair in Corona del Mar Jack's Surfboards in Huntington Beach and Newport Beach, Huntington Surf & Sport in Huntington Beach; Surfside Sports in Costa Mesa; XO Salon in Newport Beach.
