Hand-Poured Beeswax Candles: Coastal Glow from Weston-super-Mare

Breathe in the salty Somerset air, feel the hum of hidden hives - that's the magic behind every CraftedbyMhairi beeswax candle. Based in the vibrant seaside town of Weston-super-Mare, I'm Mhairi, and my passion is crafting clean, conscious flames that capture nature's quiet luxury. From subtle Honey whispers to the earthy embrace of Nag Champa, these hand-poured wonders aren't just lights - they're little beacons of sustainability, born from local bees and big dreams.

My Journey: Humble Sparks to Hive Hope

Weston-super-Mare has always been my muse - the endless tides, the wildflower meadows, the resilient buzz of bees dancing over dunes. I'm at the thrilling start of my beekeeping adventure: no hives or land of my own just yet, but every candle sale is pouring profits right back into the dream. From snagging a pro-grade wax melter for smoother pours to enrolling in apiary workshops and reading endless hive management guides, it's all about building from the ground up.

For now, I source my pure beeswax from trusted local Somerset beekeepers, keeping things hyper-local and supportive.

The vision? One day, our own blooming patch of Somerset soil-wildflowers swaying, hives humming-or truly homegrown magic. Until then, these candles are my stepping stones: proof that small flickers can light a sustainable path.

Why Choose Crafted by Mhairi Beeswax Candles?

In a sea of synthetic scents and sooty wicks, here's why mine stand out - and why buying one today lights up real change:

  • Purer Burn, Better Air: Beeswax naturally purifies the air, burning cleaner and longer than paraffin (up to 3x the life), so you breathe easy without toxins.

  • Local Love in Every Pour: Sourced from Somerset beekeepers, your purchase directly bolsters UK hives facing tough times—keeping pollinators thriving for our food and flowers.

  • Eco-Luxury You Feel Good About: Zero waste, plant-based scents, organic hemp wicks (renewable, biodegradable, and chemical-free for a steady, sootless flame), and a warm, golden glow that evokes Weston's sunsets.

  • The Joy Factor: Handmade with heart, these aren't mass-produced - they're gifts that spark conversations, rituals, and that "ahh" moment of coastal calm.
