Our Rustic Heart Customer Experiences…

  • "The best car freshener on the market. My 100 lb dog can no longer stink up my car with this hanging from my mirror."

    - Kyle

  • "I ordered one no fly zone diffuser and love it so much. I just placed an order for several other fragrances. I’ve bought more expensive brands that didn’t have nearly as much fragrance as these do. The diffuser was packaged nicely and accompanied by a hand written thank you note which was a very nice touch. BTW the diffuser is on our patio and so far not one mosquito!!"

    -Elizabeth

  • "We LOVE the Chai Latte mason jar candles. They make the room smell inviting and delicious. Everyone who comes over mentions how wonderful our house smells. I keep the mason jars and fill them with homemade spices and dehydrated lemons and limes to give as gifts."

The candles are simply gorgeous (so they are amazing gifts) and they smell heavenly. I am thrilled that they are refillable! Could not be happier with my purchase! "

    - Steve

  • " The candles are heavenly, the service impeccable. You won't do better than this! "

    -Pam

  • " This company is THE ONLY company I buy candles from now. The scents are amazing, non toxic, and last forever!!! I’ve had one of the large vanilla cinnamon candles since 2019 and I still have half left and it still makes the entire house smell like delicious baked goods. I highly recommend buying from this brand. I’ve tried almost every scent they have either in wax melts or candles, and I have yet to dislike any of the scents. They are very natural and not overpowering, but do a good job of making your space smell wonderful. My favorites are #1 Vanilla cinnamon- smells like walking into a warm bakery filled with fresh pastries, #2 Pumpkin Spice- self explanatory lol, and #3- Home sweet home- Christmas in a jar, best seasonal scent for winter. Thank you Chris for creating these amazing products! I rave about them to everyone!!! "

    -Whitney

  • " Wow! Extremely fast shipping and my friend said her candle smells amazing! Customer service went above and beyond too. Thank you! "

    -Shelly

  • " The wax melts are amazing - my house smells like heaven! Seller was super helpful & responded quickly to questions to make sure I got the scents I was looking for. Really quick shipping, arrived sooner than expected. Will definitely buy again. "

    - Kendra

  • " I’m in love with everything that I purchased from this shop! Everything smells amazing, and remind me of Lake Tahoe. Customer service was great! "

    - Maria

  • "Perfect gift for my friend and I will be ordering someday for myself. Thank you for your beautiful work of craft."

    -Cheryl

  • I first encountered this company at the Half Moon Bay Pumpkin Festival and was so impressed with their scented candles (Lake Tahoe Cabin was the first I purchased and my favorite, as it is not too heavy and gives off a wonderful aroma). I visit their booth every year at the festival, and was very excited to visit their website just recently, and purchased not only more candles, I also purchased carpet and fabric spring fresh, hand soap, and a melt warmer bundle. They arrived within a week of ordering and I am truly enjoying all my new products. I especially recommend their candle refill kits - they are amazingly easy to use, and it's great that I just purchase the fragrant wax and reuse the candle holder I originally purchased. I highly recommend this company - I hope you have the opportunity to try out their wonderful products! Anne S.

  • "I can’t say enough about how much I love this company and their diffuser oil, Love! I first discovered this beautiful scent in a small shop in Truckee and instantly fell for its warm, inviting aroma. When I planned a favorites party, I knew I wanted this scent to be part of it. However, I couldn’t find the exact name listed on the website. I reached out to the company, and they immediately responded with such kindness and willingness to help. They not only confirmed the scent but also went above and beyond by creating a personalized label for the bundle I purchased! Their customer service is truly unmatched, and the scent itself is heavenly. I’m officially a lifetime customer—Love will always have a special place in my home and heart! Thank you, Our Rustic Hearts, for your exceptional products and care!"
