Last Call for May — See Us at Koko Marina This Saturday!

koko marina

Can you believe it’s already the final pop-up of May? What a month it’s been. We’ve loved every moment of getting out into the community and connecting with so many of you in person — and we’re closing it out at one of our favorite spots on the island.

Join us this Saturday, May 23rd, at the Koko Marina Makers Market from 10 AM to 3 PM. Find us outside Starbucks at Koko Marina Center, right along the waterfront. If you haven’t been to Koko Marina lately, it’s a great reason to make the drive out east — beautiful views, local makers, good energy all around.

At our booth, you’ll find our complete Wick’d Essentials collection: hand-poured, 100% natural soy candles, soy melts, room and linen sprays, and reed diffusers. Everything is non-toxic and made right here in Hawaiʻi, with fragrances crafted to capture the essence of island living — from fresh and airy to warm and grounding.

If you’ve been following along all month, mahalo from the bottom of our hearts. Your support at every single event means the world to us and fuels everything we pour into this brand — literally and figuratively. 🕯️ And if Koko Marina is your first time finding us, welcome — we’re so glad you did.

This wraps up our May pop-up season, but stay tuned because we are not slowing down. Follow us to be the first to know where we’ll be popping up next. Until then, come find us Saturday! 🌊🌺

easter

This one’s big. We’re thrilled to be part of the Made with Aloha Gift Fair at Pearlridge Center – Mauka, and the best part? You get two full days to come find us.

Join us on Saturday, May 16th, and Sunday, May 17th, from 10 AM to 5 PM both days. We’ll be set up across from Manaola, surrounded by some of Oʻahu’s most talented local makers — it’s the kind of event that reminds you just how special Hawaiʻi’s creative community really is.

At our booth, you’ll find our complete collection of hand-poured, 100% natural soy candles, soy melts, room and linen sprays, and reed diffusers — all non-toxic and crafted in Hawaiʻi with fragrances inspired by the islands. Whether you’re a longtime fan restocking your favorites or someone discovering Wick’d Essentials for the very first time, we’d love to walk you through our scents and help you find something you’ll absolutely love.

And if you’re still searching for the perfect graduation gift, look no further. A beautifully scented candle or reed diffuser made right here in Hawaiʻi? That’s a gift that means something. We’ll even have special event pricing, so it’s a great time to stock up.

Made with Aloha is one of our favorite events of the year — the energy, the community, the local pride — it’s everything we love about doing what we do. We hope you’ll come share it with us this weekend. 🌸🕯️

There’s something extra fitting about setting up shop on the windward side — the lush green mountains, the fresh island air, the laid-back energy — it’s exactly the kind of place that inspires the fragrances we pour into every Wick’d Essentials product. Come browse our hand-poured 100% natural soy candles, soy melts, room and linen sprays, and reed diffusers, all non-toxic and made right here in Hawaiʻi.

Not sure where to start? We love helping people find their perfect scent — whether you’re drawn to something clean and botanical or rich and warm, we’ll point you in the right direction. And if you’ve been eyeing something from our website, this is your chance to smell it in person before you commit.

We still have two more pop-ups after this one, so check our full May schedule — but if you’re on the windward side, come say hi! 🌿🕯️
