Welcome!
Hello and welcome to my site! Before you begin exploring these candles, which have been my saving Grace, I'd like to share the story of how it all came to be...
Two years ago began a series of "unfortunate events" that left me broken physically, feeling useless, and not having a lot of hope for the future. I won't go into detail but suffice it to say it's been a long hard road.. Making these candles got me through that tough time and continues to be a great motivation!
As an Occupational Therapist I decided to take the advice I had given to so many others and do something that would bring back my self esteem and discover things about myself that were yet to be learned.. Each candle I make is a representation of what can be accomplished through the power of prayer, positive thinking, and hard work. Every flame that burns reminds me of the light that shines in all of us! If we just take the time to discover who we are and what we are capable of, the possibilities are endless.

They are so much more than just candles!
As a single mom I needed a way to support my family. What started as a therapeutic hobby became exactly what I had prayed for, a lucrative business that gave me self worth, an insight into my creative side and the ability to spread joy to others.

So, when you purchase a Candle By Chris you are not only helping to support my family, you are also bringing all I have prayed for and discovered, along with abundant blessings, warmth, and elegance into your homes!

After much trial and error, I have finally come up with as close to the "perfect" candle as possible. All candles are hand poured with soy wax, GO GREEN! They offer a clean, non-toxic burn. A great alternative to paraffin wax. Larger candles are double wicked, with just the right size for a slow, even burn.
