Launching my business

 15 years I have been carving one of a kind hand crafted candles. For 13 of those years I worked for a well know candle company managing their store. In 2008 after the Company changed  owners and nolonger represented my values on customers  and  the dedication I have to taking the time to create the perfect candle keepsake for them.  I left that company to open  My candle keepsakes.

My Candle Keepsakes creates uniquely handcrafted candles. Our artistic cravers have a combined experience of over 38 years, and are dedicated to fulfill each candle order to the highest standards.

We create candles for all occasions such as: Weddings, Anniversaries, Baptisms, Bar Mitzvah, Bat Mitzvah, Birthdays, or just because…..

We make each candle from start to finish. Starting with the mold, that makes the core for the candle, and then layering on your choices of colored waxes (at least 25 layers). We then handcraft the candle to your choice of design, and at this time the candle can be personalized with a name and/or pictures. When the artists finishes crafting the candle, and a final clear wax dip seals the cuts, and them an acrylic glaze is applied which harden to preserve the beauty of the candle.

Your candle is designed to be a treasured procession for years.
