Wild Wax Candle Company was founded in 2020 from a love of lush fragrances, creativity, and the natural world. Founded by artist and candle maker Sara, the brand grew from a simple joy: taking a candle workshop, experimenting with natural waxes, and spending long hours smelling candles in stores, into something more meaningful. What began as handmade gifts for friends and family quickly revealed how candles can bring calm, connection, and comfort.
Nature has always been central to Sara’s life, from childhood afternoons watching Nature with her dad to caring for endangered species as a student zookeeper at the Trevor Zoo in New York. Wanting to turn creativity into impact, Sara envisioned Wild Wax as a way to support conservation, raise awareness for lesser known endangered species, and inspire wild growth through thoughtful giving.
Wild Wax Candle Company is based in gorgeous Colorado, where Sara lives with her husband Dan and Cricket, her fluffy cat. She loves alpine skiing, hiking, gardening, photography, and camping in her free time.
This store is in loving memory of a childhood best friend, Dr. Camille Hostetter, who adored children and animals. #stopdomesticviolence
