HEY THERE, GLAD YOU"RE HERE!
I’m Susie. A Texas girl combining my love of candles with my desire to
bring glory to God.
My life revolves around my husband and best friend of 28 years, along with our incredible adult boys and adorable pups. If we sit down for a cup of coffee, we’d probably chat about family, fitness, books, and the latest recipe I’m trying out.
Nature and music are endless sources of inspiration for me, and often how I connect with Jesus. He’s my everything. I love waking up to a new day with new mercies, resting in God's faithfulness and getting out in the fresh air with my family discovering art in its million forms.
Things I've learned:
I’ve had about a dozen jobs: waitress, orthodontic assistant, stay-at-home mom (my fave), nursing student, crossfit coach, and account sales rep to name a few. Beyond that, the most rewarding challenges have been marriage & motherhood because they hold the potential to cause the most pain & joy and where love and growth walk hand and hand. In all areas, it’s been crucial to stop living in my head and believing lies. I’ve learned to be present, show up and embrace reality as it is. I found my way to wholeness by anchoring my hope to the one who breathes life - Jesus!
“Creating a life of meaning is not about finding that one great thing you were made to do, it’s about knowing the one great God you were made to glorify - in a million little ways” Emily Freeman
One of those little ways I’ve discovered is hand pouring luxuriously scented candles that bring a little joy into your home.
Why I Pour Candles With Purpose:
✨Encouraged + Truth - Each Shine & Love candle is designed to uplift, remind, and encourage you with God’s truth.
✨The Power of Scent - . I love when things smell incredibly good. What an opportunity we get to create an environment of God's goodness in our home. More than just fragrance, each candle is crafted to create an atmosphere of peace, joy, creativity, and inspiration in your home. Smell is intimately linked to the parts of the brain that process emotion and memory.
✨A Mission of Love - Each candle contributes to Angel House, a non-profit that brings abandoned children in India from slums to safety and into the loving arms of caretakers that educate, love and raise them to be future leaders. My heart is that each candle serves as a beacon of light and hope - in your home and across the world. Read more about this mission here.
