Hi, I'm Janette,
Your candle maker

I started candle making as a hobby to help ease the stress of my sales job.

I would pour wax into artisanal mugs my dad brought back from Mexico and be reminded of all the warm memories of home. As my love for candle making grew, so did my desire to share it with others. I envisioned my clients lighting up their artisanal candles, feeling a rush of nostalgia and joy just like I did. I wanted to bring a piece of Mexico, with its vibrant culture and rich heritage to all my clients through my business; Wax n Crafts.

Thank you for visiting my store and sharing in my love for the magic of handmade candles, crafted con mucho amor and inspired by mi Mexico lindo.

SOURCED IN MEXICO

Each of my candle vessels is carefully curated and hand-selected by my family and me in Mexico. They're unlike anything you will find in a retail store. Their purpose ignites my slogan: Burn. Disfruta. Repurpose.

When sourcing my vessels, I selected pieces that represent me as a craft artist. I chose mugs because they reflect my culture, the artisanal art created by the hands of artists in Mexico, and a lineage of stories and memories that each of us holds close to our hearts.

When I began the craft of candle making, I would pour wax into artisanal mugs that my dad brought back from Mexico and be reminded of all the warm memories of home. My love for candle making grew along with my desire to share it with others. I envisioned my clients lighting up their artisanal candles, feeling a rush of nostalgia just like I did.

I wanted to bring a piece of Mexico, with its vibrant culture and rich heritage, to all my clients through my business, Wax n Crafts. As a Mexican American artisan, I'm proud that my candles are artisanal and handmade from start to finish.
