Wicks and Roses

10/31/2026

After almost a year of complete chaos, this weekend my family is FINALLY moving back home.

When our house caught fire, I never could have imagined how much our lives would change. The stress, the tears, the exhaustion, trying to hold everything together while feeling like I had nothing left to give… it’s been a whole hell of a lot.

Somewhere in the middle of it all, we welcomed our chubsy-wubsy Lucas, watched our babies grow, and tried so hard to make life feel normal for them.

And now, we finally get to go HOME.

We still have work to do, and I’m sure it’ll take time to find our footing again, but we’re finally starting to close this horrible chapter.

And I need to thank all of YOU. ❤️

On the days I felt completely overwhelmed, an order would come through, a familiar face would stop at my booth, or someone would send me the sweetest message about something I’d made.

And for a little while, things didn’t feel quite so heavy.

You’ve given me something to look forward to, something to be proud of, and a little piece of myself to hold onto when everything else felt upside down.

You’ve helped keep this little dream alive through one of the hardest years of my life, and I will never take that for granted. I wish I had the words to thank you all enough.

I’m emotional. I’m exhausted. I’m so incredibly grateful. And for the first time in a long time, I’m excited for what’s ahead.

Here’s to being home, making memories with my babies, and hopefully a little peace and healing.

From the bottom of my heart, thank you thank you thank you.

Dolly Weekend has officially come to an end, and I just have to say… thank you. 🥹💛

Because of every comment, nomination, share, and little bit of love you gave this weekend, Wicks & Roses was able to sponsor THREE special kiddos through Dolly Parton’s Imagination Library. 📚✨

This one is especially close to my heart.

Getting to watch my own kids love books and get excited about reading from such a young age has been one of those little joys of motherhood that I never want to take for granted. Seeing their faces light up over a new book, watching them pick their favorites over and over (and over 😂), and knowing that those little moments are helping build a lifelong love of reading is pretty special.

And if I can help give that same excitement to another child — I want to.

So because of all of you, three more little ones will get books delivered just for them and have the chance to start building their own little library at home. 📚

Three kids. Three little libraries beginning at home.

Thank you to everyone who commented, nominated someone, shared, cheered on our winners, or simply showed this little weekend of giving some love.

You helped me turn Dolly Weekend into something so much bigger than a giveaway.

🌸 WELL… I MAY HAVE GOTTEN A LITTLE CARRIED AWAY. 😂💗

I started this weekend wanting to spread a little Dolly-inspired kindness, and after reading all of your nominations and seeing so many good humans loving on other good humans… picking just a couple didn't feel like enough.

So instead of one Saturday winner and one Sunday winner…

I PICKED TWO FOR EACH. 🥹💌

🌼 SATURDAY’S WINNERS
✨
✨

🌸 SUNDAY’S WINNERS
✨ .cz
✨ Susan Schaedel

And with Friday’s winners, Amanda + Tara, that means SIX people are getting a little Wicks & Roses happy mail. 💗

Each of you gets to head over to the Wicks & Roses website and choose one product in whatever scent you'd like — completely on me. 🥹

I'll be sliding into your DMs with all the details!

But truly, my favorite part of this whole thing wasn't picking names. It was reading the things you wrote about people you love.

Sometimes we think really wonderful things about the people in our lives and forget to actually tell them.

So thank you for doing that with me this weekend. For nominating your people. For hyping them up. For putting a little extra kindness into my corner of the internet.

I think Dolly would approve. 💗🌸

More good humans rooting for good humans, please.

FRIDAY’S WINNERS ARE HERE! 💛✨

I may be announcing them on Saturday because apparently running a business + being a mom means Friday sometimes spills into Saturday. 😂 But I promised we were spreading the love all weekend, and I meant it!

I read through all of your wishes last night, and you guys… 🥹 There is so much GOOD in that comment section.

So our first TWO Dolly Weekend winners are:

💛
💛

You’re both getting a little Wicks & Roses happy mail from me! Send me a DM so I can get your goodies headed your way. 🥰

And if your name isn't up there — we are absolutely not done. 👀

It’s Saturday, which means I get to pick MORE of you today. ✨

Keep sharing your wishes on the original post, keep rooting for each other, and keep being the ridiculously sweet little corner of the internet you've been for the last 24 hours.

Saturday winners coming next. 💛

Today's Dolly assignment is simple! Go to the original post from yesterday and find someone's comment. Leave them a little love.. a kind word of encouragement, or share in their wish.
I'll be choosing TWO people today to receive a little Wicks & Roses happy mail, but the best part of this weekend is seeing all of you root for each other.

✨💕 HAPPY DOLLY DAY, Y’ALL 💕✨

Today, I just want to make people smile.

I want to hear about the good humans in your life. The people who show up, help out, make you laugh, make life a little easier, or quietly do good things without ever expecting anything in return.

And I want Wicks & Roses to spend the day giving a little of that kindness back. 💕

Dolly Parton’s Imagination Library has a very special place in my heart. Both of my kiddos have gotten to experience the excitement of having a book show up in the mailbox with THEIR name on it. 🥹📚

So we're kicking off Dolly Day by sponsoring one child through Dolly Parton’s Imagination Library for an entire year.

But I don't want the kindness to stop there.

🌸 THIS IS WHERE YOU COME IN.

Tell me about someone who deserves a little extra kindness today.

Maybe it's a friend who always shows up.

A coworker who makes everyone's day a little easier.

A teacher, coach or first responder who gives so much to other people.

A neighbor who is always willing to lend a hand.

A parent or grandparent who does everything for everyone else.

Someone who's been having a rough time and could use a reason to smile.

Or maybe you simply witnessed someone doing something kind and think they deserve to be recognized for it.

Tell me about them. Tell me what they do. Tell me why you think they deserve a little extra kindness today. 💗

And then I'm going to do my favorite part…

🎁 Throughout the day, I'll be randomly choosing people from the comments to surprise with Wicks & Roses goodies.

No popularity contest.
No “most likes wins.”
No tagging a million people.

Just good people recognizing other good people.

And while we're spreading kindness here, we're going to pass some of it along to little readers, too. 📚

💕 Every 10 comments = another $5 donated to Dolly Parton’s Imagination Library.

💕 And 100% of the profit from every Wicks & Roses order placed today will also be donated.

You absolutely do not have to purchase anything to be part of today.

Nominate somebody.
Tell us about something kind they did.
Leave a little love on someone else's story.
Share this post so we can find even more good humans.

Then keep checking back, because I'm going to be popping into the comments throughout the day with little surprises. 🥰

We're starting with one child sponsored for an entire year.

Now let's see just how much kindness we can pile on top of it. 💕📚✨

Who's a good human in your life that deserves a little extra love today? 👇

Okay, I need to take a minute to shout out some of the AMAZING vendors I got to see yesterday. ❤️

We were all so busy that none of us really got a chance to wander around and shop like we wanted to, but I managed to snag a few things from some incredibly talented humans—and they deserve all the love.

✨shopholliepocket — Lucas’ CUSTOM MOBILE. 😭 I cannot even explain how excited I am to hang this above his crib once we’re finally able to move into our home. Something handmade specifically for my little guy makes it that much more special, and I’m going to treasure it.

✨ thetwistedfinch — SANDALWOOD & SUEDE. That’s it. That’s the review. 😂 I need this scent in every application known to man. Put it in a candle. Put it in my house. Put it in the walls. I don’t care. I’m obsessed.

✨secretshelfsociety — This one makes my heart so happy. We originally stumbled upon each other at a show when they jumped in to help me throw my tent walls up during an absolute DOWNPOUR… only for me to realize afterward that they were fellow vendors! 🥹 And LOOK at this blind book! The amount of care, thought, and detail they put into every single piece—not to mention their incredible display—is awe-inspiring. Seriously, they are everything I wish I was. 😂 I cannot wait to keep supporting them.

✨ ember.alchemist — OMG. Enough said. 😂 They are THE VIBE of the season. And this dragon selection candle?! EVERYTHING. I’m lighting it as I type this and I am ridiculously excited.

One of my absolute favorite parts of doing markets has become the people I meet along the way.

There is something so special about surrounding yourself with creative, passionate, like-minded people who are brave enough to put pieces of themselves into the world for other people to enjoy.

They make my heart happy. They make the world feel a little bigger, brighter, and more beautiful.

So please go show these businesses some love. Follow them. Share their work. Shop with them. Tell your friends about them.

I am wishing every single one of them nothing but ridiculous, overflowing, SUPER SUCCESS. ❤️

Sooo beyond proud and excited for Jess and Ashley at on their segment on their New Day Cleveland yesterday! It has been such a blessing to be surrounded by such talented and creative women. If you haven't stopped in to the shop, you are seriously missing out! There is something special and unique for everyone, and even better the many events that they host supporting their makers!
