What Are A Pirates Favorite Candles?

The Skeleton Pirate of Williamston

High above the sleepy streets of Williamston, Michigan, nestled in the creaking crows nest of a forgotten ship’s mast (some say it grew right through the sidewalk of Putnam Street), sits the infamous Skeleton Pirate of Williamston, Captain Meriweather Bones.

 

Long ago, Captain Bones sailed the wildest seas in search of gold, glory, and the perfect scent. Now, bound by a mysterious curse and a refined nose, he watches the world through his weathered spyglass, searching not for doubloons, but for Bayard Candle Company's legendary fragrances.

 

One crisp October morning, a chill wind whistled through the eaves of Keller’s Plaza. Captain Bones raised his spyglass, bone-white fingers adjusting the focus. His empty sockets glowed faintly as he gasped, “Aye, there she be, me true treasure!”

 

 

For across the street, on the second floor of Keller’s Plaza, Bayard Candle Company gleamed like a treasure chest overflowing with fragrant riches.

His favorite plunder?

  • Black Sea – A deep, mysterious scent that reminds him of midnight voyages and siren songs.
  • Caribbean Teakwood – Rich, warm, and wild, like a captain’s quarters on a storm-tossed night.
  • Kentucky’s Finest – A bold aroma, with hints of oak and aged bourbon, like a tavern tale spun by firelight.
  • Damn Sexy – A dangerously charming scent inspired by the legendary Captain Jack Sparrow. Even a skeleton can swoon.

Locals claim you can still hear the creak of the crows nest as Captain Bones leans forward, whispering, “X marks the spot...” pointing his spyglass directly at Bayard Candle Company.
