My StoryIn 2021, I was diagnosed with breast cancer. After my first surgery, I bought my first candle making kit and it provided a distraction that surprisingly calmed my nerves. After a second mass was found, the next candle making kit arrived.
So began my candle making journey.My Signature Line celebrates people in my life and each scent reminds me of them. Although some are no longer with us in physical form, I believe each one of us carries light and it should continue to shine!My Community Line supports charities to which I contribute. 10% of profits of each candle in this line will be donated to its associated charity.My candles are handcrafted with fragrance and essential oils that are cruelty and phthalate-free that follow International Fragrance Association (IFRA) standards. Each candle is made with a soy- coconut wax blend and cotton wicks primed with vegetable wax.I welcome you to try one, some, or all, of my products. May you find balance, peace, and light, wherever the road leads you.All of my candles are handcrafted in my home
in Stoughton, MA.
Thank you for supporting a small business!

Other products available at craft fairs

Throughout the year, I will participate at craft fairs. In addition to candles, I make wax melts for fairs only. If you have a special request outside a craft fair, just send me a message!My wax melts are made with 100% soy wax and use fragrance oils that are cruelty-free and phthalate-free.
Be sure to use a wax warmer large enough to hold your melts. I use one that is almost 4inches in diameter. I use this one from Amazon
