Meet the 2022 Makers! The Screaming Gnome
Today’s Feature: The Screaming Gnome
“Here at The Screaming Gnome, we like to make things that smell good for you and your home. All of our products are made in small batches and each batch can vary slightly by color and scent. We are a one-person show here at The Screaming Gnome and take pride that our products are Made in the USA and Made in Pennsylvania. Our supplies that go into our products are all sourced inside the United States and we try our best to keep our packaging as minimal waste as possible. Our melts are made from all-natural waxes. We make our own special blend of Soy waxes to get the best hot throw of scents of our melts and our candles. For our melts and brittle we make our own special blend of soy waxes and beeswax so the scent lasts longer and melts slower for you.” Learn more online.
