These rugged scents of leather and sawdust are inspired by St. Joseph the Worker.

Nuanced with notes of amber, cedarwood, lavender, bergamot, rosewood, and mint.

Behind the Inspiration
This just man was a courageous and strong husband, with an obedient and humble heart. Through the work of his hands, Joseph provided for the Holy Family. Scents of leather and sawdust recall the shop where he worked, and where Jesus and Mary would have visited him.

St. Joseph the Worker’s feast day is May 1.

You’ll get the cleanest, longest, and safest burn from your candle with a few simple steps:

  • Always trim the wick before lighting to 1/8”–1/4”
  • Burn until the melted wax reaches edge to edge, or very nearly, to reduce tunneling
  • Burn only up to 4 hours at a time
  • Always keep a burning candle in sight, away from flammable materials, out of drafts, out of reach of pets and children, and on a heat-safe surface
  • Keep out of direct sunlight

I got this is a gift for my mom because of her devotion to St Joseph. It was perfect for her and she loves it. I had to email after I placed my order and Anna was great in communicating with me.

Carpenter Shop is an earthy scent of leather and wood, exactly how I would think of St, Joseph's carpenter shop smelling. I am devoted to St, Joseph and this candle helps me to feel closer to him. I ordered from CORDA to support my parish's Right to Life ministry.

Fantastic candle. Scent is mild but inspirational. Much like I imagine St. Joseph was himself.

Lovely, but lacking

I really love the smell of this candle and the thoughtfulness of the design, packaging, etc. I want to start by saying I have the St. Teresa of Avila candle and it smells amazing!! My only issue with this one is that it is not strongly scented. I had it lit for a few hours and had to put my nose directly over it to smell anything at all… a bit disappointing.

Enjoying “Carpenter Shop"

A more subtle aroma than some of your other candles, but a worthy blend to honor the Guardian of the Redeemer…I’m enjoying it.
