A little about me.....My name is Lelaine and I am the owner of Pebble Creek Candles llc. I personally handcraft and ship every candle, gel wax
tart, sachet and bath & body product you’ll come across in this candle shop. I am a creative person at heart. I very much enjoy creating all sorts of
things from quilts and baked goods to a planter of pansies for my front porch and even something as simple as a cleanly folded basket of laundry
to this web page your reading right now. I am also a wife and Mother and am fortunate that my creativity enabled me to be a work at home mom.
Here is a picture of my youngest and I having a wind blown moment at the beach back in 2005 :-) My family has spent hours building castles and
frolicking in the waves. Every year we walk together gathering smooth beach pebbles, sea glass and periwinkle shells to take back home with us. We have jars filled with our
treasures, these morsels of creation are an inspiration to me. I’ve used these prizes in some of my product
pictures. Smooth beach pebbles are the exact reason I named my business Pebble Creek Candles. And to
me every gel candle or tart I pour looks like a jar full of wet colored sea glass, unexpected jewels of light......
A little about Pebble Creek Candles.....The company was conceived in the year 2000 when my brother Tom and I stood side by side in my kitchen
and made our first gel candles together. He was a Yankee Candle lover on a budget and I was a sister with a creative flair. We perfected our craft for
a year getting lots of feedback from family and friends. In 2001 I decided to make it a legitimate business. Since then I’ve continued to grow the
company creating and testing new products and scents, adding new wares to the site. As of summer 2010 Pebble Creek Candles is where I devote
my full creative energy and purpose. Currently I have a client base that is comfortable for myself, a wahm, to manage - but during the coming years I
hope to make it a family affair. Our scented wares are crafted using 5-10% of non-polar fragrance oils, the maximum safe levels. We only use FDA approved zinc core wicks. Each
candle and gel wax tart, contains a caution label. New products are tested in my home and on my family
before they are established as safe to sell. This company plans to keep on maturing by continuing to
provide you, our customers, with excellent scented products. If there is a scented ware you’d like to see on
this site please drop me an email and we’ll see what develops. Appreciatively yours, Lelaine
