Seven years of Applewood 🥹🤍
I don’t think I’ll ever quite have the words to express what these past seven years have meant to me.
What started with a few candles on our kitchen counter, our golden retriever named Magnolia and a little dream has grown into something I never could have imagined. And somehow, every year, I find myself even more grateful than the last.
This year especially has been one I’ll never forget. From growing our little team to bringing Applewood all the way to Waco for Silobration and getting to meet someone who has inspired me for so many years... there have been moments that have made me stop and wonder how on earth we got here.
But the truth is, I know exactly how we got here.
Because of you!
Because of every person who has placed an order, shared our story, told a friend about our candles or simply cheered us on along the way.
Building a small business is filled with so many highs, lows, late nights and lessons learned. But getting to wake up every day and do something I genuinely love, knowing that what we create has found a little place in your homes and lives, is a gift I will never take for granted.
Seven years ago, I had no idea where this little dream would take me. And while so much has changed, the heart behind Applewood never has.
So, from the bottom of my heart, thank you. For believing in me, for supporting our family and for allowing me to continue building something that means so incredibly much to me.
I hope you know that when you support Applewood, you’re supporting so much more than a candle. You’re helping make a dream possible, one that I still can’t quite believe I get to call my own.
Here’s to seven years of simple moments, little luxuries and all the little dreams still waiting to come true 🤍
With so much love and gratitude,
xx - Allison, Magnolia & the Applewood Team
