Hand-poured candles and hand-picked tales that take us to life’s happy places

The essence of time well spent

Evocative scents and spellbinding stories. Both have the power to take us to a different time and place, to lift our mood, to remind us of precious moments well spent.

At re:kindle we bring together hand-poured candles and hand-picked tales to take us to life’s happy places.

Our inspiration is simple. To create a positive impact on ourselves, and a minimal one on our incredible planet.

How re:kindle works

We are all about positivity. For us and our planet.

We believe a beautiful fragrance, a great book, and a warm glow are an ideal combination for sparking happiness.

That good feeling gets even better when we know our latest read may be new-to-us but isn’t new-to-the-world, and that each candle has been individually blended, hand-poured and is (nearly all) recyclable.

And to top it all, we also spread joy through the element of surprise. At re:kindle, whilst you select your favourite candle fragrance from our range, when it comes to the book, you tell us the genre you’d like, and we do the rest. Because there’s nothing like knowing someone else has taken the time to think about you in their day.

Happy re:kindling.

Our candles

re:kindle candles blend essential oils into unique fragrances that evoke the memory of wonderful spaces and moments. Light a re:kindle candle and breathe in the joy of time well spent.

Each re:kindle candle is crafted to be kinder. They are individually made at home using soy wax - a plant based and renewable crop which compared to other waxes, has a minimal impact on the air as it burns. We also use as much recycled and recyclable material as possible in our packaging.

Our candles won’t burn forever but we encourage everyone to keep the flame of re:kindle alight by reusing the glass holder, or as a minimum, recycling it. Glass can have many lives.

Sunlit Grove

Secret Garden

Beyond the trailing ivy curtain lies a spot of wild perfection. A forgotten place where roses truly ramble and jasmine tumbles down ancient walls

Our Books

Books are magic. Portable time machines with the power to unlock every emotion and leave an imprint on our souls.

Some books we read over and over, never tiring of the characters and plots. Others we race through in one session. Some we cannot wait to share with family and friends as soon as the last page is turned.

This simple joy of sharing our most-loved tales sits at the heart of the re:kindle philosophy. We believe wonderful stories should be enjoyed by many, not shelved, so all of our hand-picked books are proudly pre-loved.

To enjoy a re:kindle story, head over to the shop, chose your favourite candle fragrance and let us know what genre of books you’d like us to select from. Then we do the rest, spreading sparks of joy through the simple act of surprise.

And that’s how re:kindle works.

Hand-poured and hand-picked positivity heading your way.
