What kind of products do you sell?
Soy candles, wax melts, room sprays and candle accessories.
How did you get started?
After having my first daughter, I was afraid to light my store bought candles for fear of what was in them. I decided to search for better alternatives, and after some research I started making my own clean burning scents.
Why are you a maker?
I love to create, and I love making something with my hands.
What inspires you?
My daughters inspire me to be a strong woman and to spread warmth.
What is your favourite product that you sell?
I love my amber jars with the decorative knob lids simply because they were once just a vision in my head.
What is your favourite product that another maker sells?
It's so hard to choose just one, but I definitely love all the decor pieces from
Foreversonflowers&More—spot her pieces in the header photo!
What is your most popular product?
Definitely my jar candles.
What's one fun fact that someone might not know about you?
Although I have no green thumb, I've managed to keep a plant alive that belonged to my grandmother.
