⛪️The Legend of the Casquette Girls:

In the 1700s, a group of pale, mysterious young women arrived in New Orleans from France. Known as the Casquette Girls, they carried large suitcases said to hold only their modest possessions—but locals whispered otherwise. Their skin blistered in the sun, their trunks were sealed away in the Ursuline Convent, and when the chests were later opened… they were found empty.

🧟♀️These chilling details fueled the legend that the Casquette Girls were no ordinary brides, but creatures of the night—forever tying their story to the Crescent City’s lore of vampires and the supernatural.

JARS & SIZING: 

For over five years, Novel Nola has been dedicated to recycling every piece of glass we can get our hands on. Our glass storage facility has become overgrown as we’ve welcomed countless locals to drop off their glass, reusable packaging, and materials, fostering a community committed to sustainability. 

For this reason, we have decided to update our inventory to exclusively use upcycled vessels for our candles. These jars are donated to us by our local community and hand-cleaned by us!

Please note: Aside from our 10oz Black Jar - Listing photos are just an example of products and sizes. Jar shapes, sizes, colors, etc. will vary. Not all jars may have lids. Every jar will be selected at random in the size range you choose. If you have a certain color in mind or would like a lid, please let us know in the notes at checkout, and we will do our best to accommodate. Every candle is unique and handmade with love.
