What a gift!

I have ordered gifts and personal use from Corda for several years! Never disappointed. I appreciate the seasonal votive candles and picking 6 of fave scents.
I use the votive candles for my prayer and daily Bible reading time. The votive fills the room!
The scents are wonderful. All candles are lovingly made, perfectly packed for shipping and received in a timely manner! Large single scent candles or the fun of different votive scents to experiment with or favorites, you won’t be disappointed.
Thrilled to support a family business!
Anna and friends, continue hearts up!!!

Favorite candle!

This is my favorite of all the Corda candles!! It's relaxing, yet complex. I also love that I can smell it on my bedside table when it's not lit. Truly unlike any other candle out there!

Blessed!

Your candles are a beautiful gift. I love to give out the sample candles so others can choose what they like. They are wonderful and have a great aroma. I think it’s beautiful that each state has its own cent.

Amazing Smell and Long Lasting

The smell of these candles really fills up the whole house! They are amazing. They also last a lot longer than we thought.

Compline

Love It!!!

I have tried several of Corda's candles and love them all. But Compline is my favorite! The combination of amber, vanilla and lavender is wonderful and relaxing. I always have it burning when I pray my rosary. I also have the wooden lid to cover the candle when it's not burning. I love this company!

Divine Office

My parish's Catholic school is having a Gala in February 2026. My silent auction contribution is a Divine Office set consisting of: a four-volume Breviary and cover and these two candles. It will be a beautiful addition for someone's journey into a deeper relationship with our Lord. Thank you for creating holiness in a candle.

Tea Lights

I love giving these tea lights; people are always so happy to receive them.
It’s a perfect gift. So compact and a thoughtful gift to get.
Getting them from Corda just makes me happy. They are always happy to help in any way.

Highly recommended

It’s obvious the care and love poured into these candles. The intentionality of scent mixes. The quality and scents are outstanding. Grateful for your mission!

Great for finding the best sents

While all their candles are great, we all have our preferences. I get a 6 set sampler ever time to try out smells to figure out which ones I LOVE to get the big jars

Great Gift

I plan on giving these Carpenter's Shop candles to our two priests who serve at St. Joseph Parish.
I've had one of these myself and enjoy the fragrance very much.
Thank you for making these candles.

Two light sampler

I love the idea of the tea light sampler. It has allowed me to try lots of different fragrances to pick my favorites. I have already bought the larger version of my favorite thus far. The company is great, the service personal and quick. Only a few more fragrances to try!

Just buy it!!!!

I’m not a fan of floral scents and Momento Mori has become one of my favorite. It is fresh and uplifting with a clean scent. This candle would be an appropriate scent for a guy. All I can say is just buy it!

Battle Cry

Great candle!

I ordered a few candles after hearing about them on the Abiding Together podcast. I'm not disappointed! Battle Cry has a beautiful scent- reminds me of "church smells". It's been burning nicely too. I'll definitely buy again.

Wonderful candle for prayer time!

This candle has been a lovely addition to my prayer time and it smells just like a shower of roses. Love the personal touch from this Catholic family business!

Love that your candles are made with nontoxic ingredients, the scents are lovely, and I appreciate that they are related to Catholic saints. I light a candle each morning when I read my Bible, and many times, I light a candle during the day or evening to help me to remember to slow down, think about God or that particular saint. Your candles bring me peace and joy!

Couldn't be happier with the candles, I will most definitely be ordering the full sized versions of these once they are over! May God bless and protect your beautiful business and talent.

Strong like St. Michael

This candle has a strong scent when lit. It does remind me how powerful St.Michael is in fighting our enemy.
