Hi, I’m the maker behind Native Candles, a small business rooted in a love for simple living, cozy spaces, and the beauty of the outdoors.

What started as a creative outlet quickly turned into something much more meaningful. I wanted to create candles that felt personal. Inspired by wildflowers, fresh air, earthy scents, and the kind of home that feels warm, welcoming, and lived in. Every candle is hand-poured in small batches using all-natural soy wax, clean fragrance oils, and ingredients I feel good about bringing into my own home.

This little business is built around the life I love most. Slow mornings, good dogs, Family, and a home filled with the scents of the seasons. Between time spent with Nova, Ranger, and Boone, riding Trigger, and making a life with my fiancé Derek, so much of Native Candles is inspired by the everyday moments that mean the most to me.

We spend a lot of our time outdoors; hunting, working with our hands, and living close to the land. That way of life has shaped everything about this brand. I’m drawn to scents that feel real and familiar — soft florals, fresh earth, clean air, worn leather, open fields, and the kind of warmth that feels like home after a long day outside.

Native Candles is a reflection of the things I hold close. My hope is that each candle brings a little bit of that feeling into your home.

Thank you so much for being here and supporting my small business. It truly means more than you know!
