How we began.
We always loved candles but noticed we would often get headaches after using certain ones. We did some research and learned that certain types of waxes and additives used for candles can cause headaches. We found that soy wax is a cleaner and safer burning wax; soon after we started to make our own candles for fun. We found that using soy wax and clean fragrance oils were no longer causing us to get headaches and not causing black smoke or soot. We fell in love with the process and with our candles! We worked with many different types of jars, wicks, waxes and fragrances oils. From there, we created Belly’s Candle Co. We use products that are made in the United States. Our wicks and wax are all phosphate- and carcinogen-free. Belly's Candle Co. uses cotton wicks, which are environmentally safe. Belly's Candle Co. uses soy wax to make candles. Soy wax has many benefits. Soy candles give off a cleaner burn; this means that soy candles produce less smoke and provide cleaner, safer air that won’t stain walls, ceilings or furniture. Our candles are great for anyone who may be sensitive to candle smoke. Soy wax also burns more evenly and has a longer burn time.
Our Name.
Our daughter's name is Isabelle but we have always called her Belly. Our logo is a silhouette of her holding and smelling a candle. As we began the process of starting to make candles at home, Belly always wanted to smell all of the candles as they were made and be a part of the operation!
