Our Story

Hello there,

My name is Yvonne and I am the owner and creator of, Soy and Shea Co, located in Columbus, Ohio. My love for candles started when I was a teenager but it wasn’t until I became an adult that I embarked on my candle making journey. Let's fast forward to the early 2000"s, I purchased my first candle kit at a local craft shop, and researched all the different options for making the perfect candle, and with all the testing and a lot of trial and error, I created, Soy and Shea Co.

Every candle is hand poured using 100% soy wax and phthalate-free fragrance oil with cotton wicks that are free of lead and zinc. All of my materials are purchased within the U.S, which helps other small businesses and our economy. All of my candles are made with Love.

Our mission is to be your handcrafted candle making company of choice, that produces high quality scented candles, and other products to inspire your senses.
