Kidcore is an aesthetic that is centered around bright colors and nostalgia for kid centric themes; crayons, cartoons, and a lot of iconography from the 90s / Y2K periods.
I have always in some way fallen back on this aesthetic in my personal life, my room (before I moved into my tiny house) was a blend of kid core with bright colored furniture, loud posters, pictures layered on the walls, and so so so many stuffed animals. But never did I ever know there was a whole genre of artists who create prints, stickers, and pins 100% inspired by Kidcore.
Until I found Laine, an Kidcore artist, who runs the shop Wool Blossom.
I fell head over heals in love with the way she brought my favorite cartoons to life. And then I truly fell into a rabbit hole of finding artists who operate in this niche. Everything from Neopets, Webkinz, Max & Ruby, and the Teletubbies is fair game for these artists and my god do they do a good job. But then I realized that no one was creating anything in this niche that wasn't just paper based art or pins. And I was like WAIT ... I make candles of things I love and I LOVE this aesthetic so...
I technically have a whole slew of ideas for candles t
o create for this theme, but for the initial introduction of these candles I narrowed it down to just four and I am so excited to share my ideas with you.
✩ First we've got a candle I know everyone is going to love; Goofy Goobers

✩ Bunny Cakes is the next candle that I just couldn't get off my mind. With a base color of bright pink and some absolutely fun primary colored sprinkles, this candle is going to bring Max & Ruby's cakes to life. The scent is going to be a yummy red velvet cake!
✩ Dragon Tales is going to be one of

✩ Lastly is one of my new favorites; Teletubbies. First and foremost, I love the Teletubbies and technically I was going to release four Teletubby inspired candles all at once, but let's just start with one! This candle is going to be a simple ode to these giant fuzzy baby-esque things. Did you know I actually have my own Teletubbies?

This collection is going to be released around the first few weeks of August. For more details, updates, & to stay up to date follow us on Instagram and Tik Tok to see how we make these new candles! ✩
