It can go either way, really. At first, we thought it sounded like the place where you might come from.

The idea took on a personality of its own when a Facebook friend shared an image of their very own Papaw to use on the label.

Through a hilarious collaborative process, we ended up with the introduction of a tremendously fun and fragrant candle with a down home feel.

While the theme is up-beat and whimsical, the approach to the performance of the candle itself was quite serious.

Six fragrances with around a 60 hour burn time. Premium, phthalate-free scent oil. High melt point food-grade paraffin. Braided cotton wick.

All decked out in a 12 oz Kerr canning jar with a twist-off galvanized metal lid.

See the promotional flyer here for a list of fragrances and descriptions.

We have also designed two exclusive ceramic warmer styles: Oval and Triangle. Both are available in 3 color choices. They utilize a 25w appliance bulb and the plug-in has a variable wheel switch for Low and High settings.

As more fragrance enthusiasts discover the AromaLume fragrance generator, La-Tee-Da! continues to expand the selection of decorative styles. The three newest designs feature textured and patterned glass cylinders and a softer, more diffused LED lighting.

Elements of supple leather finish, intricate scroll work, and french heraldry are utilized in these latest releases: Leather, Regal & Harlequin.

AromaLume outperforms traditional fragrance products in scent clarity and intensity. Active air movement generated by the base unit spreads captivating scent across large living areas. Best of all, AromaLume provides the peace of mind of knowing that no flames or heat are being produced - only fabulous fragrance. Contact your favorite gift retailer today and ask if they carry the AromaLume fragrance generator. It’s the only fragrance delivery system your home will ever need!

Two To Tango (Juicy Mango Slices) is the truest essence of ripe, exotic, sweet-yet-tart fruity goodness.

Coming Home (Clementine & Pinecones) captures what fall, holidays and family get-togethers are all about. The sweet citrus perfectly balanced with an wooded evergreen note is sure to become a classic.

Both are available in 16 oz refills and in-store testers.

Retailers – contact your local rep or La-Tee-Da! Customer Service about how to get these fragrances FREE in the month of August.

There are three sides to every story – yours, mine and the truth…

The sordid tale of wax chips whispered in hush tones concerning the short duration of the fragrance, the waxy after-smell, and the messy leftovers. Long after the scent has dissipated, you still have almost all original melted wax material to deal with.

La-Tee-Da! spins a new yarn with the introduction of Potion: a water-based liquid fragrance for warmers that maintains strong scent clarity throughout its use and doesn’t end in a messy tragedy.

As gentle as a bedtime story, the liquid gradually dehydrates down to a thin film and is easily wiped from the warmer dish with a cloth or rinsed out with water.

Half an ounce of Potion typically provides 3–5 hours of pure fragrance enjoyment, depending on your warmer setting.

No phthalates or petroleum products.

Potions are available in six fragrances: Monogrammed Linens (Lavender), Stay Awhile (Tropical Vanilla), Idyllic Refuge (Cinnamon Apple), Coming Home (Clementine & Pinecones), Perfectly Pomegranate (you guessed it – Pomegranate) and Smoke & Mirrors (Mahogany & Leather).

Near the end of an American Pickers episode entitled ‘White Castle On The Farm’, hosts Mike Wolfe and Frank Fritz visit a gift shop to pick up something for Danielle, who helps them find places to execute their ‘picking’ skills. That shopping spree resulted in a cameo appearance by none other than La-Tee-Da! Fortunately for us, the gift shop in question happens to be a premier dealer of ours. Porch Inc in Rockford, Illinois is owned and operated by Debbie Mongan. On the show, Debbie demonstrates why she’s such a successful independent retailer. She ascertains the customers’ needs and provides a level of customer service and knowledgeable guidance that is exceptionally rare in today’s typical Big Box shopping experience. Check out the show to see what happens. There is a great shot of our display fixture and a brief discussion of our effusion lamp fragrance refill called Lickity Split – a zesty, fizzy blend of lemon and other citrus fruits with a sprinkle of sugar. Even though the guys end up buying something else for Danielle, it was thrilling for us to see the product we work so hard to produce make a cameo appearance on a show we actually like. Debbie sent them on their way with a heartfelt gift that was gorgeously gift-wrapped. Next time you find yourself in Rockford, go check out Porch Inc and say ‘Hi’ to Debbie for us.

American Pickers is on the History Channel, Monday nights at 8:00 CST. We weren’t able to get any footage from the network to share with you (thanks, A&E!), but that’s material for a later entry. You can download the episode on iTunes here. It is also available On Demand if you have DIRECTV (channel 1269).

La-Tee-Da! lamps eliminate household odors (such as cooking, smoking and pets) while enveloping the entire living space in rapturous scent.

The effusion lamp uses a catalytic process to exchange unpleasant smells for tantalizing fragrances over large areas.

Our patented Elite Series catalytic lamp wick continually draws the fragrance up and will saturate a room more quickly and consistently than candles, diffusers or plugins.

The lamps themselves are blown glass art pieces designed to accentuate a wide variety of home decor styles.

Since every nose experiences scent differently, our menu of forty custom-blended liquid fragrance refills is sure to dazzle and delight any preference.

For a demonstration of La-Tee-Da! lamps in action, check out the video demo.
