Handmade and Crafted Candles

Member Since: January 7, 2009

Hi! My name is Elisa. I hand pour and craft a variety of candles. My best sellers are my 100% Soy Container candles that you can check out at www.handmadeandcraftedcandles.com .I love candles and have'nt come across anyone that doesn't. I started out making them as gifts years ago. I started retailing coffee inspired candles through the cafe i worked in and then made it known to them that I was ready to go out on my own. I'm 28 and they thought my idea was crazy even though my candles were jumping off the shelves. Oh well, the point is ,I'm doing what makes ME happy finally and my customers from the cafe followed me. I would NOT have quit my day job if I wasn't positive God gave me my artistic abilities for a reason. So, why let them go to waste. Now I have time to paint while my candles are cooling and have much more time with my family, my beautiful daughter and my fiance. Starting a business is HARD, BUT IF YOU HAVE THE PASSION AND DON'T GIVE UP,GREAT THINGS WILL START TO MATERIALIZE. I'm not suprised with the little money in the beginning, but I have faith, took a chance, and gained so much more then money, I'm living my life now.
