Our Story: A Tribute to Craftsmanship and Blooms
Our candle-making journey began as a way to honor the legacy of our grandmother Helen- a skilled carpenter who built homes and had a deep love for flowers. Her life was a beautiful balance of hard work and creativity. She spent her days constructing homes, shaping spaces where families could grow, and her evenings tending to her garden, filling her surroundings with the scents of fresh blooms. Her workshop was always alive with the scent of sawdust, wood, and the delicate fragrance of the flowers she adored.
After she passed, we wanted to find a way to honor her memory. Inspired by her spirit
of craftsmanship and her love of flowers, we decided to create candles that carry her story forward. In honor of her work as a home builder, each of our candles is hand-poured into a paint can- like the paint-splattered cans that lined her workshop shelves. Just like her carpentry, each candle is crafted with care and purpose, carefully chosen scents to create an experience that brings warmth, light and beauty into your home.
Our candles aren't just about fragrance; they're about remembering. Every time you light one, you're not just filling your home with a beautiful scent- you're bringing a little piece of our grandmother's legacy into your space.
Thank you for joining us in celebrating her memory and for allowing her story to live on in your home through the warmth of our candles.
