WATERBURY — Every so often, you come across a product so creative, so unexpected, that you can’t help but stop, smile, and take a second look. At this year’s Waterbury’s Artisans Fair,that show-stopping item came from none other than little wonders, a local brand living up to its slogan: “To brighten your day.”

Their latest creation?
Hand-poured candles made from recycled soda and beer cans — each one scented to match the flavor of the can.

Yes, you read that right.

A Welch’s Grape Soda can candle?
It smells exactly like grape.
Root beer can? Sweet, nostalgic suds.
Cola? Crisp, bubbly aromatics.
Even craft beer cans bring a warm, earthy, and surprisingly cozy scent.

Each piece is a perfect blend of sustainability and artistry — the original can becomes the vessel, the scent matches the label, and the end result is a candle that’s not just a product… but a conversation starter.
