Jaclyn has been making candles since 2016. What began as a fun craft night with friends quickly became a therapeutic creative outlet whenever inspiration struck.

In 2020, she created her first set of candles called The Shelter Collection, inspired by comforts found while sheltering in place (now renamed The Homebody Collection). She sold them as a way to make other’s spaces a little extra cozy with the added time spent at home, as well as to commit a portion of the sales to various causes, helping important efforts in some small way.

Each fragrance is the result of a thoughtful experiment, aiming to capture a memory or evoke a feeling of comfort. These candles are hand-poured in small batches, and the fragrance names are handwritten on every label. Each candle is truly a unique and mindfully handcrafted gift.

With the launch of Ember + Fog, we hope you find a fragrance that connects with you, taps into some sweet nostalgia, and elevates your space in the coziest way.
