Hi! I'm Melissa

Registered nurse, wife, cat-mom, recent grad-school grad, candle-maker - I wear quite a few hats & love all of them.

A bit about how I discovered my passion for making candles...

In the beginning of 2023, I sustained an injury working as an operating room nurse. During that time, making candles became a therapeutic hobby and quickly became a real passion of mine. After doing a ton of research, I quickly realized how toxic mass-produced, store-bought candles can really be. I take pride in creating candles that are a healthier and safer alternative for you, your loved ones and your pets. My nursing profession and asthmatic cat, Yoshie, inspire me to create candles that smell great and are safe for everyone to enjoy.

As always, thanks for being here!

With love, Melissa

We believe in...

At Weekend Glow Candles, we believe in the power of using scent to uplift and elevate your space.

Our commitment to sustainability drives us to use only eco-friendly materials, ensuring our candles are as kind to the planet as they are to your home. Our shipping boxes are recyclable and we use biodegradable packaging peanuts.

We prioritize your safety and health by creating candles with 100% soy wax, made from soy beans grown right here in the U.S, and phthalate-free fragrance oils to provide a cleaner burn (without all of the toxins).

We believe in supporting local fostering connections with our customers (who end up being friends), and bringing a little bit of joy into every home with our lovingly hand-poured candles.
