Our Story

​We started Black Earth Creek Candle Company in Wisconsin in March 2021 as a labor of love for our family.

​

With two full-time jobs, two kids and life moving a little faster than we wanted, we found ourselves looking for something simpler—a way to step away from the everyday craziness for a while.

​

So we started making candles.

​

And testing candles. Lots of candles.

​

What started as something we could do together quickly became something more. Creating candles gave us a chance to slow down, spend time together and make something we genuinely enjoyed.

​

FROM OUR FAMILY TO YOUR HOME

We kept at it and eventually started wondering if what we'd found could help other people create those same little moments of enjoyment in their own lives.

​

Candles grew into wax melts, soaps, sugar scrubs and body butters, all handcrafted in small batches with the same attention and care that started this whole thing.

​

Today, Black Earth Creek Candle Company is based in Cross Plains, Wisconsin, just minutes from Black Earth, and we're still creating products meant to make everyday spaces—and everyday moments—a little more enjoyable.

​

We love what we've built, and we hope you find something here that you love, too.

​
