Festive is the one word that could describe the atmosphere at Pilgrim Candle during this time of year. From seasonal decorations and entertaining essentials to hostess gifts, corporate gifts and presents for almost anyone on your list, you’ll find a little of everything.
The spirit of the season is everywhere, so it’s easy to find decorations to give your home a holiday glow, whether you want to add something whimsical or traditional to your décor. Owner Donna Shibley has curated a selection of merchandise that includes wreaths, candle rings, table runners, and garlands for the fireplace mantel.
Explore the store and you’ll find something new around every corner. There are a variety of decorative trees of all shapes and sizes, and the lighted houses offer an inviting holiday glow to any room in the house. One of my favorite items is the entryway table light that looks like a big Christmas ornament. It makes its own unique statement and it’s a great conversation piece. I love the idea of getting the conversation started by asking party guests about their favorite ornament.
The wooden sweater deer are adorable accent pieces, and the pretty snowflake trivets can be used during the holiday season and throughout the winter for entertaining or dinners at home with the family.
Now that we have decorations covered, let’s talk about holiday entertaining. It’s not an exaggeration to say that you’ll find almost everything for a festive party but the cheese and the booze at Pilgrim Candle. The elegant Rustic Bakery crackers elevate a cheese board, speaking of which, Donna has selected a variety of boards and utensils for charcuterie.
Stuffed olives, balsamic oils, preserves and jams in various flavors from Laurel Hill, Halliday’s Spices and Dips, and local maple syrups are among the culinary offerings, along with Zite Zaytoon Extra Virgin Olive Oil from Lebanon, which comes in a green and cream corduroy pouch, making it a perfect hostess gift.
Almost anything you’ll find at Pilgrim Candle can make a thoughtful hostess gift. The pottery olive oil decanters are a decorative way to store and pour olive oil and pair nicely with a bottle of olive oil.
Let’s not forget how it all started – with candles. There are red and green tapers for the table. Jar candles with scents such as balsam, Winter Woods, and cranberry, will fill your home with the scents of the season, and Pilgrim’s new Executive Collection of candles are a great corporate gift idea.
A visit to Pilgrim Candle will put you in the holiday spirit while elevating your gift-giving
and entertaining.
