Creating A Mood

About us

Hello! I am a Mississippi native and licensed clinical psychologist of 8 years. Most of my practice has been in health psychology with a background in clinical research. In my therapist role, I frequently deliver mindfulness-based stress reduction treatments. This often includes aromatherapy. My personal journey to candle making started as a kitchen hobby. I loved scented candles, but not the side effects (e.g. soot, smoke, headaches). As such, I sought to craft natural soy candles that could fully scent a space, while being safer for children and allergy sufferers.

Along the way, I’ve enlisted the help of my little sister for web-design, marketing, and an extra set of hands for stirring and pouring. Our mom has joined us as our packaging extraordinaire and co-creator of some of our unique scents. We’ve grown closer together as we’ve worked to bring our candles to your home, your office, your yoga studios… to your life.

let's talk candles

Our candles are made of 100% natural coconut soy wax–with no paraffin or other fillers. They are scented with essentials oils and premium fragrance oils that are phthalate free. We utilize maximum fragrance loads of 10-12%, whereas the average for other candles is 7%. We also create our candles in small batches that are stirred and poured by hand. This allows for thorough, consistent fragrance that won’t fade or burn away and gives an awesome hot throw from start to finish. Finally, we utilize natural wood wicks (for a soft glow and pleasant crackle) and cotton wicks that burn slow, clean, and thoroughly–with little left over wax.
