Grumpy Dog Candles

Have a favorite bottle but you aren’t a candle person? We can always make your bottle into something you can still enjoy without it just sitting on the mantle collecting dust. The options are endless!

Cool article on one of our latest wholesale accounts in Iowa!

Newsletter |V2-I4 Now you can bring home a reminder of the camaraderie you’ve felt with friends at 173˚ Craft Distillery.

It’s crazy to even think about a puffy jacket in this insane heat … but cold market mornings will be here before we know it!! Huge shout out to Molly at for making us look cute 😍

One of the best parts of doing events is all the wonderful vendors we meet. Scott and Diane with are some of the absolute best. A huge thank you to them for this whiskey barrel top with our logo on it ❤️

We are in the new candle space … sort of! Our current workshop is also our home and the candles have been quickly busting the house at the seams. So, we bought a new space … just for candles!! It’s going to take some time and effort to get it up and running as the new candle workshop but we are SO excited for what’s to come. While it’s not a “store front” open to the public to just come by and shop, we do plan on hosting some small events and shopping experiences here so keep your eyes peeled for that. Thank you to all of you for your support and love as we’ve taken this journey. This new space is all because of you!! ❤️

We are out of the candle workshop for some summer adventures!! We will be available to ship items on June 26th and then not again until after July 2nd. Thanks for your support!!

This one was bought before it was even fully finished but had to share because it’s SO fun!!

This weeks bottle obsession is - how fun are these bottles made into candles!! Grab one today for Mothers or Fathers Day … or maybe you need a wedding or graduation gift? Shop link in bio - Phoenix valley delivery is available instead of shipping - send us a DM!

We made it to the next round!! You can vote daily - can we count on you to help us make it to the finals!?! Thank you!!! ❤️

Bailey is THE original Grumpy Dog. She’s the reason for the name of our business. She crossed the rainbow bridge today and she will be SO incredibly missed. We love you, sweet girl ❤️

The Etsy shop is back open for business! Orders from today and tomorrow will ship out on Friday. Link is in bio (or stories)

One of our favorite orders to make are the ones that make you smile. “Our friend who always drank Blue Moon beer passed away. We’d love a candle in that bottle to remember him”. He always drank his beer with an orange slice. So blood orange scent was the perfect fit. Thank you for trusting us with your memories ❤️

Etsy is finally getting updated!! Adding candles as this is posted so keep checking back!

And this is why we say to NEVER leave your candles unattended when burning! EVER!!

Two different custom orders this week .. both bottles. Get a fun bottle, share a special memory, make it last a lifetime ❤️ Old Bottles. New Life. It’s what we do.

We’ll have this edition Makers Mark candle at the this weekend at !! Come grab it and make it yours (unless wants it - then it’s his!!)

Exciting things happening at Grumpy Dog Candles! A new work space is coming soon … and today we branded the foundation and made it OURS!! We’re busting at the seams in our current space so we’re having a new space built that will be 100% dedicated to candles! Thank you all for supporting us in this journey. We’re so excited for this next step!!

Two years ago today Lisa and I set up at our very first market ever as the new owners of Grumpy Dog Candles. It’s been such a wild ride and we’ve loved the adventure. We are so grateful for all of you who have supported us - in any way. Here’s to many years to come! ❤️

Funny thing when we look at this first set up - we no longer bring chairs. Neither one of us can ever just sit and relax at a market 🤣

It’s going to be too hot this weekend for us to be outside with candles so we will be joining at

Spent the morning packing food boxes at OC Food Bank - what a rewarding 2 hours! Thanks for the invite - and we didn’t even plan on wearing matching shirts!!!

It feels like a sushi and sake kind of a Friday night. Anyone else feelin’ it!?

Did you know that we make candles out of bottles that are NOT liquor or wine?

Our label obsession this week comes from “In Grateful Memory” Courage Cabernet Sauvignon bottles. The colors, the emblem, the implied meaning. We love it all.
Thanks for the custom order

These candles smell sooo delicious!!! They are flying off the shelves😊😊😊🩷🩷🩷
