About Candlepop

Candlepop

Highly scented soy wax candles with personality

Candlepop Candles developed from a long-lasting love of candles and an obsession with bright colours, patterns and interesting fragrances. Having spent years collecting a lot of glassware from old candles, and suddenly having the time due to being furloughed, I started making and creating my own candles. It wasn't suppose to be a business, however as more friends and family and then referral requests grew, what started as a hobby soon developed and this is where I am. I love making candles, I'm a perfectionist so I spend a lot of time ensuring I get the right results in terms of scent throw, contrast of colours, blending oils at the right temperature to the heat of the wax and ensuring all ingredients are of the finest quality, including glassware. I'm also a huge fan of recycling so all my labelling, packaging and filling are made from reusable and recycled materials. The wax I use is biodegradable and the dye I use is non-toxic and vegan friendly.

As for myself, to know me is to know that I am obsessed with colour, patterns and fragrances. From as early as I can remember my bedroom walls were painted regularly with bright vivid colours, sometimes with patterns - the sponge effect was the most common, if I remember rightly!! Now a home owner myself along with my husband and fur baby (Cavachon pooch called Maisie) our walls are a blanket of stone grey adorned with colourful artwork of Sausage & Bacon, Cheese on Toast, Van Gogh style Faces and Sheep on a Dessert Island to name a few. Add that to the array of candles and fragrances commandeering every windowsill and shelf throughout the house along with multi coloured cushions, curtains, clothing and shoes, it's safe to say my obsession with colour, patterns and fragrances has never left me, so, this became a natural starting point for my candle design - colour, glitter and anything that sparkles is my go to guilty pleasure.
