The journey
I have always had love for scented candles and wax melts. Anytime I pass them in a store, I stop and smell every single one. There’s just something about scent that feels like a little moment of magic.
After the pandemic, like so many people, life felt a bit uncertain. During that time, I found myself playing around with a candle making kit I had lying around. What started as a small distraction quickly turned into a full blown obsession. I fell in love with everything waxes, wicks, fragrance oils. The whole process was not only fascinating, but surprisingly relaxing.
I started thinking about turning this into something more, even thinking about selling what I made. But life got busy again, and I stepped away from it. Looking back, I realise those early ideas weren’t quite ready and neither was I.
Fast forward to now, and I’ve found a clearer vision, a refined craft, and most importantly, something I’m truly proud of. This time, it’s not candles, it’s wax melts. And I’m finally ready to share what I’ve created with the world.
