About Me

Hi everyone, my name is Melissa. I have lived in Belchertown for 19 years. I have an amazing and supportive husband, 6 great kids ranging from 3 to almost 20, 3 giant dogs and 2 cats (busy house) I have worked in the education field for over 15 years, 12 years in Early Intervention.  We love camping, hiking, the ocean, I LOVE all holidays, candles, coffee and relaxing with a glass of wine and a book. Recently our family has moved towards embracing more natural products in our home. It is important for us to find products that are healthy, free of toxins, sustainable, eco-friendly, and avoid products that can pose a risk to our household. We have made changes to cleaning products, skincare, and foods we eat. Since becoming more conscious of what we are putting in and, on our body, it is also important to know what we are putting into the air of our home. I love burning candles in our home and I burn them year-round. I was shocked to learn most candles on the market contain some type of toxin such as synthetic fragrance, paraffin wax, petroleum, lead and allergens. Burning candles has many wonderful benefits. They are mood lifting, stress and anxiety reducing, aesthetically pleasing, create a peaceful ambience, and make a home overall more inviting. I started making beeswax candles with natural fragrance to continue enjoying all these great benefits while also purifying the air in our home. I now feel more confident of what I am exposing my family too. I hope you enjoy these candles in your home as well. I am excited to share my candles with you.
