A multi-color candle collection can look beautiful on the shelf, but there’s a lot happening behind the scenes to make it successful. 🎨

How many colors should you launch with? Does each color need its own production quantity? Should every fragrance have a different vessel? And how do you plan inventory without overcomplicating the collection?

Our latest guide walks through the decisions to think about before production, from color strategy and sampling to SKUs, lids, budgeting, and inventory planning.

If a new candle collection is on your roadmap, this is a good place to start.

Looking for a spring update that feels fresh without becoming difficult to use?

Shared Ground brings a softened blue-green into the Spring 2027 palette, balancing the warmer earth and botanical tones with a cleaner, more modern direction.

We paired it with Translucent Gloss, allowing light to move through the color while maintaining a soft, milky appearance. The result feels fresh and dimensional without becoming overly delicate.

It’s an especially versatile direction for home fragrance, beauty and wellness packaging, and one that can continue working well beyond a strictly seasonal launch.

A color reference gives you a starting point. The final result depends on how that color behaves on actual glass.

Opacity, sheen, transparency, vessel shape, and lighting can all influence how the finished decoration is perceived. That’s why sampling is such an important part of the development process.

At JAFE, color development, spray coating, screen printing, sampling, and production are connected under one roof. That gives our team the ability to help carry a direction from the first reference through the finished product with greater consistency.

Already have a color in mind? Start there.

Not every spring collection needs to tell the same story.

The Spring 2027 palette was designed so brands can combine the colors in different ways depending on the direction they want their collection to take.

Soft Emergence pairs First Growth, Early Bloom and Turned Soil for a lighter, more optimistic direction grounded by an earthy neutral. It works especially well for floral and botanical fragrances, giftable collections and softer seasonal launches.

Intentional Growth combines Working Green, Shared Ground and Deep Bed for a more grounded, structured direction. The mix of olive, softened blue-green and a deep neutral gives the collection a premium feel with the versatility to extend beyond spring.

Both start with the same Spring 2027 story. How you combine the colors and finishes determines where you take it.

Download the Spring 2027 Color Guide to explore both collection directions and find the combination that fits your brand.

Forget ghosts and goblins. These are the things that really haunt us. 👻😂

A little Halloween humor straight from the JAFE team! 🎃

Every industry has those moments that make you think, “Well, this just got interesting.” Ours just happen to involve paint, glass, artwork, and candle wax.

All jokes aside, we know bringing a product to life comes with a few unexpected twists. Good thing we’re pretty good at figuring them out. 😉

What’s something that haunts YOUR industry? 💀
