I’ve been missing my camera. Looking back at all

I’ve been missing my camera. Looking back at all of the memories is good. It’s getting my creative juices all stirred up. Joe was not my only subject, but he was my favorite, and he always gave me something good to work with. It took him sometime to accept that I wasn’t putting my camera down, and he finally quit asking me to “STOP!” 😀 He was a good sport.

I wish I would’ve reached out to friends and fam

I wish I would’ve reached out to friends and family more than I did, for help. Joe was adamant that he was getting better. False hope. I was completely disillusioned.
• We can’t “what if.” I mean, we can, but to what end? He was so different in the end. The last two weeks was a vortex of anxiety. He just spiraled so quickly. This was not Joe that did this.
• We are all living our own journeys. We cannot control another’s outcome- no matter how much we want too. I have to keep reminding myself of this. Whatever Joe came to this earth to do, it was done.
• They say something good always comes from something bad. I can’t imagine my life being any more amazing than it already was, but what if this was just a rehearsal for my best life, that’s yet to come?

Work hard, play hard. That’s always been our mot

Work hard, play hard. That’s always been our motto! Joe says work before play but I say LET’S GO PLAY! And here’s why: it’s actually when we allow ourselves the time to relax that we do our best work. And if having a little bit of fun is what it takes to provide the high quality candles that we do for our customers, then I say let’s go! :) So, in the spirit of fun and productivity, tell us, where should we go for a little R&R when the time comes: the mountains or the ocean? Because (no surprise) we’re torn!

Just popping in today to say “hi” to all the new faces we’re seeing around here! We are Joe & Marie Beckley! We’re candlemakers and dream chasers- though dream “catchers” is really more like it.
.
We own and operate Beckley Candle (aka Beckley’s Best Blends) from small town Clay City, IN. We love to travel the country selling our (made with love) soy candles at vintage markets, craft shows and street fairs throughout the ❤️ heart of America, the midwest. Although our job has its ups and downs, we would never trade it for the world! One fun fact about us is that we were on the Oprah show in 2008!

Now enough about us, tell us one fun fact about YOU in the comments!

How are you feeling today? Before you give the oh-

How are you feeling today? Before you give the oh-so-easy “I’m fine” answer, remember that you have the ability to choose. You can look at an otherwise bad situation, such as, forgetting to set your alarm, as an opportunity for some "me time" or a little creativity break... or both! A mindset shift is all it takes to lift your spirits and brighten your day! The choice is yours, my friend. So let me ask you again: How are you feeling today? Comment below!

On this gorgeous spring day, as I took my walk thi

On this gorgeous spring day, as I took my walk this morning, I was reflecting on how grateful I am for how far we’ve come. When we first started our candle business, we made so many mistakes. Like the time I marked the calendar with the wrong market date... OOPS! It wasn’t until our email started pinging that I realized my error, and we had completely missed the show! How EMBARRASSING, and really, quite costly. Fifteen years later, I still make mistakes, and so does Joe. But on the bright side, that’s what’s gotten us to where we are today! Double-tap or comment below if you are grateful for life’s lessons (even if they were learned the hard way!).
