There's something about lighting a candle that instantly changes the mood. Softer. Warmer. More intentional. And as most of you know, I am not usually a candle person. Strong scents tend to give me a headache and I am picky about what I burn in my home and office. But these were different.
When I tried The Beez Kneez Co., I was genuinely surprised by how delightful they smelled. Light, natural, and cozy without being overpowering. The kind of candles I would actually burn and enjoy! And when that candle is made locally in Idaho with ingredients you actually feel good about, it hits differently.
Why These Candles Feel Different (Because They Are)
Most candles on the market are made with soy or paraffin wax. Paraffin comes from petroleum and can lower indoor air quality... But, The Beez Kneez Co. does things differently! Their candles are crafted with pure beeswax and coconut oil for a clean, safe burn that supports the health of your home and the people in it. They are pet friendly, family friendly, and made in small seasonal batches right here in Idaho.
The scents are intentionally subtle. Not overpowering. Not fake. Just enough to make a room feel inviting and lived in!
The Scents We Tried and Loved
We tried two of their most popular scents and now we get the hype!
The Balsam Fir is the kind of scent you want burning all winter long or anytime you are craving a little outdoors energy inside. The Slow Coast candle is soft, coastal, and cozy. Light and fresh with a warmth that makes it perfect for smaller spaces like bathrooms, desks, or bedside tables..
Made With Purpose and Heart
Behind The Beez Kneez Co. is Sabrina Hotchkiss, and her story makes the brand even more special!
Sabrina is an Engineer in the Army National Guard and a college graduate with a background in Sociology and Criminology. When she is not running her candle business, she is hiking, camping, fly fishing, or hitting the gym. Her love for the outdoors directly inspires the scents she creates.
She wanted candles that felt true to nature. Cozy. Grounded. Real. And that vision shows up in every single product.
Perfect for Gifting or Keeping All to Yourself
These candles are the perfect size for thoughtful gifts, stocking stuffers, host gifts, or a treat for yourself. You can shop holiday scents, fall favorites, classic staples, 100% essential oil candles, beeswax candles, wax melts, and more on her website.
They are priced with intention too. High quality without feeling out of reach. Because everyone deserves safe, beautiful products in their home!
If you love supporting local Idaho makers, care about what you bring into your home, and want candles that smell incredible without being overwhelming, The Beez Kneez Co. is absolutely worth checking out!
Light one, slow down, and let your space feel a little cozier.
