Friends of the Somerville Public Library | 9oz Soy Wax Candle

This candle was created in partnership with the Friends of the Somerville Public Library, and every dollar of profit goes directly back to the library! The Somerville Public Library offers free public programming, learning opportunities, and a welcoming space for everyone, and this candle helps support that work in a real and meaningful way.

The scent is built around chrysanthemums, fallen leaves, and fresh apple, capturing the quiet magic of Fall in New England. It smells like the season’s first cold breeze and the moment the trees begin to shift. It’s meant to feel warm, familiar, and a little nostalgic, the way a library always does.

The label is designed to look like a classic library borrower’s card. Each date printed on it marks a historically important year for the Somerville Public Library, grounding the scent in local history and honoring the generations who have kept the library alive.

When you buy this candle, you do something good. You help protect a place that strengthens the community, promotes literacy, and gives people access to knowledge and connection. Libraries are underfunded and often overlooked, but they make everything better. This candle is a small way to give back and keep that work going.
