Soy Wax Village – Luxury Candle Brand
Hand-poured soy candles rooted in calm, comfort, and real life. As featured in Made By Magazine - celebrating the stories behind independent makers.
Kristy is the founder of Soy Wax Village – a handmade candle business created during a period of recovery, change, and learning to slow down.
What began as a creative focus at her kitchen table became a way to rebuild routine, confidence, and purpose – one candle at a time.
I never thought of myself as resilient.
After multiple brain surgeries and long periods of recovery, Kristy never saw herself as resilient – until a doctor said the word out loud during a routine hospital stay.
That moment changed how she viewed everything she had been through.
Resilience wasn’t something she needed to find.
It was something she had already been living.
