Glow On-the-Go: 5 Candle Hacks for the Travel-Savvy
Ah, the season of travel is upon us and many of you may be mentally packing your bags as we speak. While it seems there are a lucky few among us who were seemingly endowed with a natural gift for artfully concise packing, most of us struggle with compiling just the right items (you’ve got to have those *options*).
.
But, good thing for all of us, GoodLight’s vessels are made to be re-used, upcycled, up-gifted, and re-loved. And they may be just the thing you need to streamline your packing so you feel like a pro. Even better, they’ll hopefully help you refuse purchasing plastic storage solutions, and re-use those GoodLight candles for an adventurous second life.
