About Us

Æthel Candle Co. started in a season of my life where I was searching for peace in the middle of chaos. I didn’t grow up surrounded by luxury or calm—I grew up in a life that wasn’t always steady, holding onto the little things that made life feel softer. For me, candles were one of those things. The flicker of a flame after a long day, the way a scent could bring back a memory or make me feel at home even when nothing else did.

That’s why I created Æthel. It wasn’t just about making candles—it was about creating small reminders that beauty and calm can exist even in tough times. Every candle is hand-poured in small batches with coconut soy wax, clean ingredients, and intentional scents that feel like a breath of fresh air. Safe, vegan, and non-toxic—because what we bring into our homes should heal, not harm.

For me, these candles are about more than scent. They’re about slowing down, finding comfort in the little things, and choosing to notice the bright spots in our everyday lives. Maybe you light one after a hard day, maybe you gift one to someone you love, or maybe it just sits quietly on your table reminding you that you deserve calm too.

Æthel isn’t just a candle—it’s a piece of my story, shared with you. A reminder that even if the past was heavy, the present can still be light.
