Tell us a bit about yourself 

I am a kindergarten teacher and I love handmade crafts, I am also very much into Reggio concept and how our environment is our third teacher. And to always try and protect or preserve our environment.

What made you start your company?

One of my hobbies is making organic candles, using natural elements instead of harmful chemicals. My daughter Torrance loved the idea and when we created beautiful candles our friends started encouraging us to sell them to help encourage the concept.

Tell me about your product and brand?

Candela is the name we came up with together and our products are free from chemicals and environmentally friendly. 

What struggles have you faced when starting up a business?

At the moment we are making candles in our own free spaces and selling them online and hope to have a workshop in the future.

How did you get over them?

Currently we are working in harmony so we too want to have a stress free work atmosphere and we plan to keep it that way. Work happily not be grudgingly.

Any advice for others just getting started?

Love what you do and do not stress over unnecessary things. Go with the flow and remain calm.
