The week does not disappear, it just stops having a Monday in it. "Retirement: 6 Saturdays And A Sunday" is the joke that every retired person eventually claims to have invented.

The Signature White version, poured with 60+ hours of Bamboo Forest in a 13.5 oz jar. A retirement do, a leaving card, a teacher finally out of the building: this is the one.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What is a good retirement gift for a teacher or a nurse?
A: Both spend careers on other people's schedules, so a gift about getting their own time back reads as more thoughtful than anything job-themed. A weekend joke says it without mentioning work at all.

Q: Is this suitable for somebody who worked shifts rather than weekdays?
A: Shift workers often find the joke funnier than anyone, because they never had the standard weekend to begin with. Six Saturdays is a bigger change for them than for most.

Q: How strong is the fragrance when the candle is unlit?
A: Soy holds its scent cold, so an open jar quietly scents a small space such as a bathroom shelf even between burns. Lit, it comes on properly within twenty minutes.

Q: Can this be kept for months before it is given?
A: It keeps indefinitely somewhere cool and out of direct sun, and the fragrance does not weaken on a shelf. Heat is the only enemy.

Q: Should the candle be left to burn all evening?
A: Three to four hours is ideal, and past that the glass warms more than it needs to and the wick wants trimming. Put it out before leaving the room.

Q: Does the label peel in a humid room?
A: It is applied to stay put through normal use, including a bathroom, and it does not lift at the edges with steam. Standing water is the only thing to keep it out of.
