Bayberry Scented Tapers — A Timeless New Year Tradition
Bring a touch of old-world magic into your home with our Bayberry Scented Tapers, handcrafted by Mole Hollow Candles in Sturbridge, Massachusetts. These beautifully made candles carry the nostalgic, earthy aroma of bayberry — a scent long associated with warmth, prosperity, and good fortune.
Each set includes a traditional blessing:
“A bayberry candle burnt to the socket brings food to the larder and gold to the pocket.”
Burning bayberry candles for luck in the New Year dates back to colonial times, and these long-burning tapers are a lovely way to continue that tradition. Light them on New Year’s Eve or during the holiday season to invite peace, abundance, and heartfelt blessings for you and your loved ones.
Perfect for altar spaces, holiday tables, hostess gifts, or anyone who loves meaningful seasonal rituals.
