About Us

Hey, I’m Soph!

I’m the founder and creator of Wax N’ Wicks Co.

It all started in 2022 when I was 19, working odd hours and looking for a fun way to fill my free time. I dabbled in DIY projects—first with bath bombs (a total disaster), then with candle-making kits (thanks, Spotlight!). Turns out, I fell in love with the process—experimenting with fragrances, colours, and jars became my creative escape.

At first, I was just making candles for friends and family (let’s just say I’ll never run out of Christmas and birthday gifts). But soon, word spread, and orders started rolling in. That’s when Wax N’ Wicks Co. was born.

It’s been a journey—lots of trial and error, but also so many wins. In August 2024, I launched Sip N’ Pours, and it’s easily my favourite part of the business. I love seeing people bring their candle visions to life, sometimes in ways I’d never even think of!

Beyond the candles, I’m incredibly grateful for the amazing Wax N’ Wicks community. Every March, starting in 2025, I dedicate time to raising funds and awareness for Endometriosis Australia, a cause that’s close to my heart.

Thanks for being here and supporting my little dream—I can’t wait to keep creating, learning, and sharing this passion with you!
