About five years ago for my birthday, I received a candle making kit. At the time I thought it was a kind and interesting gift, but set it aside for a couple years. Then, in 2008 I met my wife Angelia, who found the box and suggested we give it a try. We had burned so many candles together that I decided it was time to give it a go. Over the years, I've experimented extensively to finally come up with the perfectly fine-tuned products you see on our site. I create all candles personally at home, where I hand-pour & scent each candle.
