All about me and how I started my business

All about me and how I started my business

Hi everyone,  Nadeeka here the owner of Burn for you candles. So I'm a mum of two beautiful children, Aleeah 11yrs old and Beau 9 years old. At the beginning of covid my workplace was shut down. I worked in childcare then and had been for 13 years. 

I spent so much time in that period of time with the children so when the world went back to semi normal I decided I wanted to do something that allowed me more time with them, so I brought a candle making kit online and began my journey making and testing candles. I have loved candles growing up but just couldn't really afford the really nice ones. So I went out on a limb and started making candles to sell at affordable prices. 

During this time I also went back to work as a swimming instructor which is what I do now as well as running my small business from home. 

Thank you all for taking the time to read a little about me and how I got into candle making.
