My Story...
It was an overcast afternoon in early November 1999 while flipping through daytime TV for something engaging to watch; I happened upon a program offering to teach me how to make hand made candles. Wanting a hobby and a great way to offer handmade holiday gifts for friends and family, I eagerly waited for the program to resume from its commercial break.
Initially the candles were very basic and “rustic”, however over the course of the next few years I would hone my technique and find what fragrances were most appealing to my loyal candle testing friends and collogues. I discovered very early on that I had a knack for creating very unusual candles and a great eye for presentation. It didn’t take long at all before my candle testing friends to spread the word and before you knew it I had holiday orders pouring in.
In mid 2007 during a time of much downsizing I found myself walking away from a 9-5 administrative job and a box full of belongings I collected during my time at the company. I have lways dreamed of crafting candles and selling them in craft fairs and local retail shops, and it seemed as good as a time as any to give it a go.
Over the previous seven years I learned a lot of lessons in candle making and selling, and I knew if I wanted it to be successful, I needed to streamline my product line and process. There were a number of important basics I wanted to focus on when planning my new venture.
1, simplicity, I wanted to create a line of candles that I could replicate consistently, efficiently. And with integrity.
2, I wanted the candles to be safe, contained and clean burning.
3, “The gift", for me to create a candle that would be packaged attractively and ready to give as a gift.
4, And lastly value, it was important for me to offer an affordable luxury to candle lovers.
By taking all these important basics into mind, I neatly packaged them into a simple concept; "Understated elegance and affordable luxury".
