Why I started Jwicks Candle Co

Why I started Jwicks Candle Co

There’s something special about the simple act of lighting a candle. The soft flicker, the slow melt, the gentle scent filling the air — it brings a sense of calm no matter how chaotic life feels.

Like many people, I’ve always loved candles — maybe a little too much. I wanted my home to feel warm and peaceful at all times, but constantly keeping beautiful candles burning started to take a real toll on my budget. So, I decided to make my own.

That’s where it all began.

What started as a small experiment quickly became an obsession. There’s something deeply satisfying about the candle-making process — melting the wax, blending the fragrance, centering the wick. One candle turns into ten, ten into a hundred. Before long, I had equipment filling the kitchen, labels on order, and a domain name: Jwicks.

Jwicks was born out of two passions — my love for creating candles and my fascination with building something from the ground up. It’s been a journey of learning: from sourcing ingredients and perfecting the pour, to designing packaging and shipping candles across the country. Every part of the process has been a new adventure.

Today, Jwicks has evolved into more than just a candle brand — it’s a reflection of simplicity, quality, and intention. Each candle is made by hand, in small batches, with natural ingredients and a genuine love for the craft.

I hope when you light a Jwicks candle, you feel the same sense of peace and warmth that inspired me to make the very first one.

Cheers,
Joey
Founder, Jwicks Candle Co.
