FIRE + FOLK
Brand · Candles
Hi! I’m Heather, the founder and maker behind FIRE + FOLK. I hope to bring a little Pacific Northwest magic into your home through beautifully scented candlelight, while sparking moments of warmth, joy, and cozy connection.
I’m a disabled LGBTQ+ candlemaker and have handcrafted pure soy candles for more than a decade. I’m also an intersectional activist, and I donate $1 from every candle sold to local organizations and mutual aid groups that uplift our community.
As someone who battles 6 autoimmune diseases (including a rare and disabling neurological disorder) it was important to me that any fragrance in our home be clean, safe, and non-toxic. After all, many commercial candles and fragrances are full of petroleum by-products, phthalates, endocrine disruptors, carcinogens, and more. So, more than a decade ago, I set out on a mission to learn and perfect the art and science of handcrafting clean, non-toxic, and vegan soy candles. I’ve been obsessed with the process ever since!
