I’m a Problem Solver…
After making the switch to clean soy candles for the health benefits, I was disappointed to find that many didn’t smell as strong as paraffin wax candles. In October 2018, just five weeks after my youngest daughter was born, I tried to solve this problem and I poured my first batch of candles. They were terrible.
After A LOT of trial and error, I managed to create a five-hour slow pour technique that creates candles with the level of fragrance I love!
…a Candle Maker…
Although I had my technique figured out, I knew a good pour meant nothing without good ingredients. For creating my candles, I chose to use soy that is grown in the USA, wicks that are lead free and fragrance oils that are infused with essential oils and free of toxic phthalates.
After spending countless late nights in my kitchen filling candle orders, I found myself running out of space to work. So in March 2021, I opened my first store front!
...and a Small-Business Woman.
What started as selling candles to close family and friends in 2019 is now a successful business with both online and physical stores -- where I get to provide the larger bug, bear & bean family with quality candles. The overwhelming support for my business has been nothing short of incredible, and I’m grateful for the opportunity to serve my community again, this time as a craftsperson.
