Hello! I am so glad to meet you! My name is Lara Elizabeth, and I live in the north west corner of Connecticut with my 6 furbabies.

I began candlemaking in 2005 with the desire to create a highly fragrant candle of much better quality than store bought.

After about a year of non-stop testing different waxes and fragrance oils and finding my formula, I was finally satisfied that I had achieved my goal. I continue to test to this day to provide my customers with nothing but the finest wax and fragrances. To be honest the testing never really stops as any chandler will tell you. Testing plays a huge part of candlemaking and with my candles and other products you can rest assured that they have undergone extensive testing. My candles are handpoured in small batches in my craft room (aka the dungeon) with the highest quality wax and fragrance oils. Each one is scented with the maximum amount of fragrance oil that the wax I use will hold. This process creates a highly fragrant candle with an even burn from start to finish.

In late 2006 I jumped on the Cold Process Soap making bandwagon and have been making soap ever since. Commercial soaps are a thing of the past for me and my family. My soaps do not contain detergents - instead I use natural veggie oils. My soaps will moiturize your skin without drying it.

I add a vintage and/or primitive look to my products because I must confess that I am hopelessly addicted to anything vintage and primitive. I also sew in my spare time and I love creating raggedy dolls, prim dolls, prim cats, pillows, ornies and more. I am sure in time I will be adding a few OOAK pieces to The Sage Grove. Thank You for stopping by and please do enjoy your stay.

 Blessings,
