Meet Woven Co. Candles: Andrea & Austin's Mission of Scent with Intention

We're moved to introduce Woven Co. Candles, founded by Andrea and Austin—partners in life, business, and a whole lot of wax—who started in Franklin, Indiana with one simple idea: that scent could do more than smell nice, it could ground us, bring us together, and make a space feel like home. Offering a full scent bar experience where you create your own soft soap, hand and body lotion, natural deodorizing room and linen spray, reed diffuser, and candles at their Franklin studio or private parties, they built Woven Co. for those who want homes to feel warm, calm, and welcoming with gifts that feel personal and moments to slow down—proving that "it's better to light a candle than to curse the darkness," running their storefront with three daughters nearby where every candle is still poured with purpose using clean-burning food-grade Paraflex blend wax that's phthalate-free, dye-free, with the Woven Co. Women's Initiative giving 5% of every purchase to top-rated NGOs serving women.

More Than a Candle: Full Scent Bar Experience

At Woven Co., we offer a full scent bar experience. Create your own: Soft Soap, Hand and Body Lotion, Natural deodorizing room + linen spray, Reed diffuser and of course, candles. Whether you're visiting our Franklin studio or hosting a private party, these custom fragrance creations make the perfect gift—or treat for yourself.

Scent with Intention. A Business Built on Meaning.

You want your home to feel warm, calm, and welcoming—not just look the part. You want gifts that feel personal. You want to slow down, even for a moment. We built Woven Co. Candles for exactly that.

"It's Better to Light a Candle Than to Curse the Darkness"

"It's better to light a candle than to curse the darkness." -William L. Watkinson. This guiding philosophy reflects Woven Co.'s commitment to creating light and positivity.

Our Beginning: Andrea and Austin

We're Andrea and Austin—partners in life, business, and a whole lot of wax. We started Woven Co. in Franklin, Indiana with one simple idea: that scent could do more than smell nice. It could ground us, bring us together, and make a space feel like home.

Backgrounds in Creativity, Entrepreneurship, Intentional Living

With backgrounds in creativity, entrepreneurship, and a deep love for intentional living, we poured our first candles in small batches, tested every fragrance by hand, and invited friends and family to experience the process with us. From that spark, Woven Co. grew.

Running Storefront with Three Daughters Nearby

Today, we run our storefront with our three daughters nearby, and every candle is still poured with purpose—just like the very first one. This family involvement makes the business deeply personal.

"Our Favorite Scent Is the One That Reminds You of Home"

"Our favorite scent is the one that reminds you of home." – Andrea & Austin. This philosophy celebrates the emotional power of fragrance and memory.

What Makes Us Different: We're Here to Help You Create

We're not just another candle company. We're here to help you create. This empowerment approach makes customers co-creators of their scent experience.

Clean-Burning, Food-Grade Paraflex Blend Wax

We use a clean-burning, food-grade Paraflex blend wax—never poor performing, never synthetic blends. This premium wax ensures superior burn quality and safety.

Phthalate-Free, Dye-Free, Cotton Wicks

All of our candles are phthalate-free, dye-free, and made with cotton wicks (wood wicks in select dough bowls). These clean ingredients protect health and air quality.

Highest Quality, Certified Clean Burning Fragrances

Our fragrances are the highest quality, certified clean burning and safe for your household. This certification provides peace of mind about indoor air quality.

Scent Bar: Craft More Than Just Candles

Our scent bar lets you craft more than just candles: soft soaps, body lotions, linen sprays, and reed diffusers—all custom blended by you. This versatility extends the scent experience throughout your life.

In-Store and Mobile Experiences About Making Memories

Our in-store and mobile experiences are about more than the product—they're about making memories. This focus on experience creates lasting emotional connections.

Why We Do This: Because Tiny Details Matter

Because tiny details matter. We believe in the power of small, beautiful things—lighting a candle at the end of a long day, choosing the perfect fragrance for a gift, or gathering friends around a table to create something together.

Supporting a Dream, a Family, a Space to Slow Down

When you support Woven Co., you're supporting a dream, a family, and a space where others can slow down, feel seen, and leave with something truly meaningful. This transparency creates authentic connection.

What About Our Name? Every Person Is Woven Together

Our name, Woven Co., represents our belief that every person is woven together in their mother's womb. Every person has value and a purpose. Our name is tied to our mission and the ways we express it.

Give-Back-Brand: Woven Co. Women's Initiative

We are proud to be a give-back-brand. We give 5% of every purchase to top-rated non-government organizations (NGO's) that serve women through our Woven Co. Women's Initiative. These NGO's tackle issues such as sexual exploitation and trafficking, economic opportunities and practical support for new mothers.

At Daily Health & Beauty, we're moved by Andrea and Austin's journey as partners in life, business, and a whole lot of wax, starting Woven Co. Candles in Franklin, Indiana with the simple idea that scent could ground us, bring us together, and make a space feel like home. Their full scent bar experience, clean-burning food-grade Paraflex wax that's phthalate-free and dye-free, storefront run with three daughters nearby, and Woven Co. Women's Initiative giving 5% to NGOs serving women makes Woven Co. Candles a perfect addition to our curated collection of purposeful artisan brands.
