Why Candles?

If you love candles—the cozy glow, the calming ritual, the way a scent can instantly shift your mood—you’re in the right place. Whether you’re here to explore new fragrances, learn about candle making, or discover some great candle recomendations, welcome.

My love for candles led me to take a candle-making class. I followed the steps, measured, mixed, poured—and left with two handmade candles. I was hooked. From there, I began experimenting with small batches at home, often giving them away as gifts to friends.

That hands-on process sparked something deeper. I started learning everything I could about ingredients, scent blending, and creating candles that feel like an experience—not just a product.

Holm & Sol is simply a space to share my love of candle making and scent exploration. I work with soy wax and small batches, inspired by the seasons and travel. I hope you find some inspiration for your own candle adventrue.

Best,

Chris
