FALL / WINTER 2022

“Hand-poured in the USA, these candles don’t just fill a room with scent, they’re also bound to spark a conversation.”
Inspired by personal recollections and cultural trends, each candle is designed to be a conversation piece. Our aesthetic is modern and playful, but we take quality seriously. All candles are hand-poured in the USA using natural ingredients with no additives, dyes, or preservatives. Our coconut-soy wax blend, cotton wicks, and premium phthalate-free fragrance oils create a clean burn and powerful scent throw.
Anecdote Candles is my “accidental business.” After realizing that the commercially-made candles dispersed throughout my apartment were the culprit of my migraine headaches, I got curious about the anatomy of a good candle. It took just a few weeks of research and experimentation for me to become fully obsessed with the art and science of candle making.
ABOUT US
is marked the genesis of Anecdote Candles: a hobby that turned into a business and has remained a passion. Within the rst three years, production moved from my kitchen to a 200 square-foot studio to a 10,000+ square foot studio where our small, dedicated team hand-pours thousands of candles a day. Our products are carried in more than 300 indie boutiques across the country as well as many national retailers, and we have no plans to put this ame out anytime soon.
Exploring fragrance combinations took me on an unexpected walk down memory lane. Amber was warm and luminous, much like the mid-century modern decor in my grandmother’s living room. Fig seemed calm and orderly, just like a satisfying day of adulting. Oddly enough, lemongrass immediately prompted memories of the one day I tried to take a Pilates class (and all the girls in color coordinated workout gear who enthusiastically took a seat in the front row while I sat in the back).
Founder’s story IT BEGAN AS A HOBBY, TURNED INTO A BUSINESS, AND HAS REMAINED A PASSION. Our candles DESIGNED TO REMIND US OF STORIES WORTH SHARING.
