Ana Designs created the first striped taper over 15 years ago. They’ve graced the O List and many exquisite homes across the country over the years. Frank Weeden, Founder and Creative Director, for Ana Design stopped by to visit our shop yesterday so we thought we’d feature Ana Design striped taper candles on our show today! We’re hoping to tape a show at his factory in Trenton, NJ sometime this summer.
QOTD: What two colors do you think would look good in an Ana Design striped taper candle?
Good to know about main event episode 45
If you are enjoying main event episode 45, a few simple habits help you get the most from it.
- Trim the wick to about a quarter of an inch before every burn so the flame stays steady and clean.
- On the first burn, let the wax melt all the way to the edges of the container to help prevent tunneling.
- Keep the candle away from drafts, fans and anything flammable, and never leave a burning candle unattended.
- Stop burning when about half an inch of wax is left in the container, and let it cool fully before relighting.

A quick scent guide
Think about where the scent will live. Bright citrus and green notes tend to suit kitchens and bathrooms, while warm spice, vanilla and wood often suit living rooms and bedrooms.
Give a scent time. The first impression is not always the whole story, because fragrance notes open up and settle as a candle warms or a diffuser works.
Scent is personal. A fragrance that feels cozy to one person can feel heavy to another, so use our notes as a starting point and trust your own nose.
Care matters. Store candles and fragrance oils away from heat and direct sun, keep lids on, and follow the maker’s instructions to keep a scent smelling its best.
