Welcome to the Sihaya & Co Blog!

Greetings folks! I have listed this year's Secret Menu. For those of you that are new, each year I go through my collection of blended oils to see how many candles can be made from each. I sell them, slightly discounted, both to clear out existing stock and give lovers of our seasonal scents a second chance at some favorites. Quantities of our Secret Menu items are limited and first come, first serve. Speaking of limited, there are two brand new triple layered Spring Limiteds! I've been retreating into my frock flicks and period pieces lately, and so I have two...

Hey gang. Given everything that's happening in the US right now, it's felt like a really awkward time to be promoting my business. I was really struggling to come up with a theme for the Spring Box that didn't feel frivolous or dismissive. But one night on my evening doomscroll, it occurred to me that I have a platform. Small as it might be, I have something to say, and a place to say it, and if nothing else, I can work on making the world incrementally better.  Sihaya & Co has always striven to be inclusive when choosing collaborators...

Heya everybody. So, it's been tough lately, huh? Speaking for myself, I'd like to crawl under some blankets for the next four years and only pop my head out for tea and food.

Aurora Borealis: A flurry of sparkling flakes, a serene blanket of white, and snow-blanketed trees reaching towards a magical night sky. Creamy vanilla buttercream kissed with peppermint candy canes and a touch of white woods. Fireside Tales: This scent is in honor of the...

Spooky Season is nearly upon us! To celebrate, we've launched our Halloween box, Bump In The Night. It's a celebration of the frightening things that lurk in the forest and glide half-seen down long, empty hallways. It features a mix of new collaborators and returning favorites. In it, you will find a salt soap bar by Athame + Alchemy, which have been very well received in years past, as well as a thematically perfect perfume by Death & Floral. Paper Haunt is back with us, providing a coffin notepad for all your lists of dark bidding. The Pickety Witch will provide...

Hey! If you're anything like me, you've been too sweaty to think much about Autumn. Still, good things are on their way, like hopefully cooler weather! Our Autumn box, AUTUMN REVERIES, just launched and it is full of delights. For this box, I wanted to highlight the dichotomy of Autumn. It is a season that urges rest after fruitfulness, hedonism after the long toil of summer. And yet it often evokes a passionate frenzy of creativity among its adherents, a wild skirl of visionary artistry.This box honors that duality: the vibrant flame of the leaf and the deepening shadows of the...
