Our Story

In early 2023, after an injury took me away from my nursing job, I found comfort and joy in making candles. What began as a hobby soon became a real passion. Now, I love creating hand-poured candles that are safe and healthy for you, your loved ones, and your pets. Inspired by my nursing background and my asthmatic cat, Yoshie, I am dedicated to crafting candles that everyone can safely enjoy.

  • 100% Soy Wax

    Soy wax is made from soybeans (a renewable resource) and it's free of the toxins and carcinogens often found in paraffin wax, making it a healthier option for both people and the environment. In addition, soy wax candles typically burn slower and last longer than paraffin candles of the same size, which can be more cost-effective in the long run.

  • Non-Toxic

    Our candles are created with 100% soy wax and premium non-toxic fragrance oils that exclude harsh chemicals, dyes, toxins, parabens and phthalates. Unlike paraffin wax (which is derived from petroleum), soy wax does not release harmful toxins (such as benzene and toluene, which are known carcinogens) when burned.

  • Locally Made

    All of our candles are meticulously hand-poured locally in Stamford, Connecticut. We offer free pickup in downtown Stamford, making it convenient for local customers to get their favorite scents.

  • Pet-Friendly

    We use premium fragrance oils instead of pure essential oils. While natural, candles made with 100% essential oils can be toxic to pets when inhaled. Unlike humans, dogs and cats lack the proper enzymes to break down and digest many essential oils. In addition, our soy wax is hypoallergenic and produces less soot/smoke compared to traditional paraffin candles that you'll find in those big home stores. It's important to be mindful of what you and your pets are breathing in.
