Hey everyone,

I think this is a good time to introduce myself to you all and share the progress of this busines. My name is Alex and I am the owner and creator of Alex's Candle Co.

I started making candles for fun in June 2020. I then shared some of my first candle works to my amazing coworkers and close friends. They have been my support group/testers from the very beginning and I'm very grateful for them and encouraging me to make this into a business and are still open to trying out new items.

As of July of 2021 I decided to focus on my business due to some unexpected health issues that led to losing my job. As I've only shared this with close friends and close vendors friends, I was diagnosed with a genetic disorder called F.A.P (familial adenomatous polyposis) which resulted in needing a colectomy in September 2021. After recovery I was able to participate in my very first vendor event with which I'm forever thankful for introducing me to an awesome community.

I cannot begin to explain the amount of gratitude I feel for all the hosts that have welcomed us to be a part of their events. Also for all the love and support we have received from every single one of you all that have stopped by our booth to check out our items and purchased something. It gives me joy that some of our scents are nostalgic to some and remind them of a happy moment. Thank you for supporting this small Chicana owned business.

-Alex
