Our Story

North + 29 Candle Co. was founded in 2016 when I was a new stay at home mom learning my way through my new motherhood journey. I loved being a part of every aspect of my daughter's day and had a deep desire to create something where I could provide for her and our family, while still being there for all of those special moments.

My urge to be creative during nap-times and after bedtime was deep. I began making candles for fun and because I have always had a connection to the ambiance, the scent memories, and the calmness of them. I also have a very competitive spirit and candlemaking was a challenge at the beginning. I was challenged to get it just right. So I tested and tested, days into months into a year or more until I finally perfected my recipe and method.

I am proud of my journey and proud of what this company has grown into today. I am proud of the products we create, still nurturing that same perfectionism I had from the beginning. I hope when you burn them in your home you can feel the amount of love that went into each one.

Thank you for being along with us on our journey.

With love,
Jessica

Our Process and Ingredients

Each product is carefully curated and made with love by hand in our small studio in Denver, Colorado.

First we start with all-natural, creamy soy wax from the Midwest, USA. Then we add our custom curated and hand-blended fragrances that are superior quality, phthalate-free, and essential oil based. Each candle is prepped with a braided cotton wick that is free of heavy metals. We then hand-pour the golden melted wax and fragrance into each beautiful candle vessel. The wicks are then centered by hand and the candles cure on our baking racks. Once cooled, each container is carefully looked over, tops smoothed over with heat, vessels wiped clean, and finally labeled by hand.

We pride ourselves in our small-batch process and guarantee that our candles are 100% handmade. Additionally, we are proud that all of our products are free of any carcinogens, mutagens, reproductive toxins, organ toxins and acute toxins. We also believe in making sustainable choices when it comes to packaging and shipping materials whenever and however possible. We work with suppliers who have the same values as we do to bring you a sustainable, safe, clean and beautiful candle that you can be proud to have in your home.
