A Creative Journey That Became Sweet Scents

​

Sweet Scents Candle & Soap Company began in 2017 as a basic soy jar candle-making class at Jersey Girl Art Studio. At the time, I never imagined that a simple class would lead to a whole new creative business.

​

When COVID forced me to close the doors of my businesses in 2020, I decided to use the lockdown as an opportunity to learn. In April 2020, I began a Master Candle Making course, along with other online crafting classes. I discovered a passion for candle making and began exploring new techniques, including dessert candles, wax melts, bath and body products, and custom fragrance creation.

​

Although the physical location of Jersey Girl Art Studio eventually closed in March 2021, the Art Studio continues today as an online workshop. My creative journey never stopped.

​

For nearly two years, I worked without a dedicated production space while continuing my other businesses and making candles from home. Then, in May 2023, an opportunity came along to open a storefront in Holiday, Florida, in a space within my budget.

​

I took that opportunity, and Sweet Scents Candle & Soap Company moved into its own dedicated workspace.

​

Today, Sweet Scents is my creative business, where I continue to learn, experiment, and create handmade products for customers. From everyday fragrances to custom creations, every product is made with care and a love for what I do.

​

What began as a simple candle-making class became a journey of creativity, determination, and discovery. And I'm still creating.
