Founder
The Home Stay Mom
Introducing the heart and soul behind Light and Warmth Candle Co., our cherished home stay mom, the founder of the business. However, like many, 2020 was a challenging year for her, casting shadows over her spirit. Yet, it was through candles that she found her beacon of hope.
Driven by a deep desire to spread warmth and comfort, she immersed herself in the world of candle crafting. Initially, it was a personal endeavor, crafting candles as heartfelt gifts for her closest friends. What began as a personal journey soon blossomed into something greater. Initially crafting candles as tokens of affection for her nearest and dearest, she discovered a profound belief: that candles possess the power to illuminate even the darkest corners of our lives.
Driven by this conviction, she embarked on a mission to spread light and warmth, one candle at a time. From the flicker of the flame to the fragrance that fills the air, each candle she creates is a labor of love, infused with her unwavering dedication to bringing joy to others.
With every Light and Warmth candle, she shares not just a product, but a piece of her heart—a testament to the belief that even in the darkest of times, there is always a flicker of hope waiting to be ignited. Join us in celebrating the woman behind the light, whose passion illuminates the lives of all who encounter her.
