Once Upon A Vela

Once Upon A Vela Once Upon A Vela is a candle company based out of Gulf Breeze, Fl. I started making candles with our youth at church for Mother's Day a couple of years ago.

Pure, simple and hand-poured with love
My name is Jessica Hall and I own Velasita Candle Company. I knew I had to continue making candles. Each candle contain 3 simple ingredients: wood wicks or with a lead-free cotton wick, 100% American grown soy wax and premium fragrance and essential oil blends. l LOVE candles and I wanted a candle with a meaning and beautiful scent. As candle lovers we all lo

ve a beautifully scented candle, but what we really love are candles that give off an aromatic experience once lit. With a rustic tin and crackling wicks or soft cotton wick, you will find a pleasant aroma. All of my candles are hand-poured upon order in my studio. I hope my natural soy candles can help your home feel more home-y

Trust that any candle ordered from me will only be created with eco friendly and safe ingredients. You will be supporting a handcrafted US business when you purchase from me.

To all the small business moms—
The ones answering emails during nap time, packing orders after bedtime, and building dreams in between school runs, laundry, and exhaustion…
I see you. 🤍
Your business may be small, but the sacrifice, love, and courage behind it are not. Every late night, every prayer, every “maybe one day” is planting seeds for something bigger.
You’re not “just a mom” and you’re not “just a small business.”
You are building a legacy while raising one.
So if today feels messy, slow, or overwhelming… remember: some of the strongest businesses are built by women carrying both babies and burdens at the same time.
Keep going, mama. Your family is watching faith, resilience, and hard work in real time. ✨

This Easter, may we remember the One who called us to shine. ✨

Jesus said, “You are the light of the world.” — Matthew 5:14

In a world that can feel heavy, dark, and uncertain… be the light.
Be the kindness.
Be the peace.

Be the reminder that hope still lives here.
This season, light a candle as a symbol of His love, His sacrifice, and the light He placed inside of you. 🤍🕊️

He is risen — and because of Him, we shine.
