Behind the brand

 Hello, I’m the owner and creator of Wax Elixir. I’m excited to share more about myself and my passion for candle-making with you. So, pour yourself a cup of tea and join me on my journey.

How it all began...

The majority of my working life I spent buying goods for large international retail companies. However, once I had children, I discovered my adoration for renovating furniture, painting, and interior design. I put my passions on hold to get back to my career. However, this took an unexpected turn when the pandemic began and the world was locked indoors. During these tumultuous days, the world seemed to stand still, which, for me, was a time of reflection that led me to explore my interests further. This was the era in which I found candle-making to be the light of my life, encouraging me to embrace a new lifestyle of health and gratitude that I wish to extend to the rest of the world. Hence, Wax Elixir was born.

Wax Elixir is a haven for the soul, crafting not just candles but dreams brought to life. It’s a testament to the power of ambition and the joy of following my dreams. Many memories flood back when I blended certain fragrances, and I realized that these were powerful jars of happiness. Gradually, my candle-making hobby turned into a passion. Since then, I have been on a mission to craft one-of-a-kind, stunning, and eco-friendly collections that are at the heart of Wax Elixir’s philosophy.

 The journey so far..

Our candle collections have been designed to be easily repurposed in your home long after your candle has finished burning. Simply wash our candle jar with hot soapy water, and you have a beautiful vessel for many household uses. 

At Wax Elixir, we believe that candles aren’t just objects; they are the embodiment of a promise. A promise of a better quality of life, of moments that matter, and the art of enjoying the present. Our aesthetic candles are visual tales, painted in a palette of shapes, sizes, colors, and romantic moments. Our motto, “Enchanting Ambience, Magical Moments,” isn’t just a phrase; it’s a promise of an extraordinary journey.

My new vision for the most stunning handmade and unusual candles was brought to life by repurposing antique items. The highlight of the boutique “one-off” collection felt like the perfect designer and timeless addition to my scented soy candle collections. So, watch this space for a new beautiful addition achieved by combining the amazing unusual antique items (copper, brass jars, press glass, vintage tea cups, etc.) repurposed in traditional candle craft, using amazing scents of traditional essential oils and soy-coconut natural waxes. The new collection will launch soon.

When you light one of our creations, you don’t just ignite a candle; you set dreams free, and you create cherished memories. These are more than just candles; they are the keys to a life more meaningful and more beautiful. Join me on this radiant journey, and let’s craft moments that illuminate your life.

With warmth and light, Bohuna x
