Turn your home into a relaxing retreat with this wonderful line of
candles and diffusers from Spruce Home & Garden in New Milford.

Spruce Home & Garden has launched an exclusive collection of candles and two kinds of diffusers. The candles are made with hand-poured, 100% soy wax and blended with natural oils, and finished with an all-cotton, lead-free wick that ensures a long, clean, and pure burn. The environmentally-friendly soy wax burns cooler and lasts longer, producing 90% less soot than paraffin candles.

The high quality reed and clay diffusers are also made with natural oils and are environmentally safe to use. The longlasting scents are therapeutic and carefree. Mix and match from room to room in your home—all of the scents are available in both candles or diffusers.

Spruce’s in-house product designer team created both the products and the packaging. Instead of descriptive names, the different scents are presented as  numbers, so the scent isn’t ruled out by its name. For example, our favorite, No. 66, is also known as Grapefruit, and has a refreshing, distinctive aroma. No. 14 is Herb, and No. 56 is Fresh. Other scents are No. 39 (Cashmere), No. 25 (Linen), No. 35 (Midnight), No. 51 (Blackberry), No. 36 (Macaroon), No. 67 (Bark), and No. 54 (Driftwood)—all are delightful and original.

The packaging is handsome and elegant, wrapped with a black rubber band to be used for placing a sprig, or a stone, shell, or another item of your choice into it, along with black gift cards. The signature Spruce diffuser bottle has a clean, modern look topped with a graphic black cap, and the frosted glass candle holder has a stylish, square shape—both designs would fit in well in any home décor.

A second type of diffuser has a white flower made of clay sitting on top of a more decorative glass bottle. The fragrance is carried through the clay flower and permeates the room. In this style, there are three inviting scents to choose from.

Any of these products make great gifts. Keep a few for yourself and fill your home with lovely aromatic notes every day. Candles are $29 and diffusers are $35. The new collection is available in the store at: 20 Bank St, in New Milford or on-line at www.sprucehomeandgarden.com.
