The Joy Of Making Absolutely Pointless Things

Posted ...

Usefulness has become a rather overpromoted virtue. The moment a pastime shows promise, someone asks how to sell it, scale it or turn it into a respectable little earner. Which is precisely why spending an afternoon making a tiny ceramic goblin, a lopsided papier-mâché moon or an utterly impractical wooden object can feel so marvellously liberating. Read more >

Latest website audit from our spider

Our web spider - powered with AI - can identify good and bad points of each site it visits. Below you'll find a random selection of sites our spider has recently visited, along with its notes on what it has found. The reason we show you these spider audits is to help give you ideas on how you can improve your own website.

sablecandleco.com

analysed on 9 October 2026

1. What the website is about & its purpose

The site is for Sable Candle Co., a candle-making business based in Grand Rapids, Michigan. Its purpose appears to be to promote the company’s products and services—especially workshops where visitors can learn candle-making and create custom candles. It also supports product-related offerings such as refills, events, and a shop area, plus business-facing options like wholesale and private label. The contact information indicates visitors can reach the team via email or a contact form.

2. Good points / trust signals

Clear physical address shown: “620 Wealthy Street Southeast, Grand Rapids, MI, 49503, United States” and a matching “showroom: 620 wealthy st se, grand rapids, mi 49503”.
Multiple contact channels: contact form (implied), and email addresses listed (e.g., info@sablecandleco.com and sablecandleco@gmail.com).
Workshop offering described: “Our workshops are offered every day” and what attendees do (bring a container or use their vessel shelf; mix fragrances to create a custom candle).
Strong third-party credibility / media coverage: “AS SEEN IN” section with multiple publications and local features (e.g., Reader’s Digest, Grand Rapids Magazine, Wood TV8, Eight West, etc.).
Ownership and identity trust: “Women-Owned Businesses in Grand Rapids” and similar trust-building local/community recognition.
Customer/community engagement signals: social references like “share your spark” with handle tags.
Core business documentation references: links/titles for Terms & Conditions and Shipping Info.

3. Improvements to help visitors

Provide clearer workshop booking details: The text says “book a workshop >” but doesn’t specify how to book (link destination, scheduling, duration, required steps, pricing, or what’s included).
Clarify product/service scope: Sections like “Home/Shop/Workshops/Refills/Event Favors/Gift Card/About/Wholesale/Private Label/Retailers” appear, but the page text provided doesn’t explain what each offering includes. Add short descriptions for each.
Unify contact emails: Two different emails are listed (info@... and sablecandleco@gmail.com). Use one primary email (or explain which is for what) to reduce confusion.
Improve contact-form clarity: The page says “Use the form on the right,” but visitors may want immediate guidance such as expected response time and topics/categories (workshops, wholesale, private label, retail partnerships).
Expand trust signals beyond media: Testimonials are not shown in the provided text. If available, add customer testimonials, workshop reviews, or before/after outcomes.
Ensure address consistency and formatting: Address appears in two places with slightly different capitalization/spacing. Standardize it across the site for accuracy and trust.
Make key policies easier to find: Terms and shipping are referenced, but consider summarizing key points (shipping regions, timelines, returns/refunds) directly in the relevant sections.
