My story

Hi, I’m Craig and I love candles.  So much so that I started my own company in high school.  It was a short lived, but fun experience.  Over 20 years later, I’m doing it again.  That is how Light Your Fire Candle Co. came to be.  After purchasing and burning hundreds of candles over my lifetime, I have found that I can make high quality, great smelling candles. I create and sell candles because it is fun and relaxing.  Please go ahead and look at my selections, find a scent that you feel passionate about and light your fire!

I was born and raised in Morgantown, West Virginia.  I currently live in Virginia with my dog, Zeke.  He assists in the quality assurance department of the company.  He’s shy when I bring it up, but he is currently the Chief Sniff Tester.  

To help with your candle selection, I came up with a system to help you determine how my candles will perform in a particular room.  Regardless what size candle you order, it will have a room size designation. These designations will be L (Large), M (Medium) and S (Small).  These designations will be visible on the lower right corner of the labels.  A single candle with an L will fill a large room with fragrance.  A single candle with an S will be less noticeable in a large room and is better suited for a small space.  If your favorite scent contains an M or an S, consider buying two if you plan to burn them in a large or open area.  The room designation is not indicative of physical candle size.

Finally, I am very passionate about customer service.  I promise to do my very best with my customer service.  Please don’t hesitate to tell me what I can do better!

Thank you for taking the time to read my about page and visit my store.  I greatly appreciate you supporting my small business!
