Let me paint a scene for y'all. It's July, in North Carolina and it's 7am. You're outside, in the garden, putting in work, because you know, once that midmorning heat hits, everything changes. The air is thick, a bit too sticky to be called dewy, but the moisture in the air is pleasant, almost creamy, calming. There are birds chirping and a few bees and even fewer voices. There's a stillness so peaceful, so calming that you sink deep into the aromas surrounding you. You've picked sungold tomatoes and herbs, lots of herbs--chocolate mint, lemon thyme, maybe even some sweet basil. And when you're done, right before the rest of the world wakes up and joins your day, you smell your fingertips. The scent of tomato leaf and herbs have permeated your pores. You smile because that scent is the epitome of summer. THIS, my friends, is the scent of our Tall Grass candle. These notes. These feelings. This scene. This beauty. This is what we attempted to capture. We hope you love each and every whiff! . . . #brightblack #brightblackcandles #candles #comeshinewithus #summercandles #summerscents #tallgrassfoodbox #payblackfarmers #durham #durm #bullcity #durhamnc #communityovercompetition #blackoutdoors #scentartist #ncmaker #blackowned #fortheculture #summervibes #candlelover #shopsmall #handmade #bealight #scentedcandles #outdoorafro #livegreen https://www.instagram.com/p/CfDEH_sLtR3/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
