For the past 25 years, I’ve had my own quiet tradition on September 11th.

I light a candle, sit in silence, and remember my two friends who were lost that day—along with every life taken and every family forever changed.

It’s always been something I’ve done just for me. A small, personal way to honor them, reflect on the memories we shared, and simply remember. 🤍

This year, I made this candle for that moment.

After sharing it, a few people reached out asking if I would make one for them too. I never created it with the intention of selling it, but I know remembrance looks different for everyone. If having one gives someone else a meaningful way to pause, remember, and honor someone they lost, I would be honored to make one for you, with or without a loved ones name.

Some traditions are quiet.
Some memories are forever.

Never forget. 🤍

25 years later, and this day still hits differently. And hard!

On 9/11, I lost two of my best friends—one from childhood and one from my young adult years. One worked in the towers, and the other was a firefighter, only six weeks on the job.

Today, I choose to remember them from those two very different chapters of my life—the laughter, the friendship, the memories we made, and how incredibly lucky I was to have loved and been loved by both of these amazing humans.

I will forever be grateful that they were part of my life.

Some memories never fade. Some people never leave your heart.

Still loved. Still missed. Never forgotten. 🤍

Some people have therapy. I have this. 🤍

Pouring, blending, creating, making something with my hands—it’s where my mind gets quiet and I get to just be.

So weird how something that started out of necessity became one of the places I feel most at home.

So now I want to know… what’s YOUR form of therapy?

Adulting needs ambiance.™🕯️

Every morning around 6am 🕯️☕️

Coffee poured. Candle lit. Journal open.

A little quiet before the day starts to think, write, dream a little + remind myself where I’m headed.

It’s a simple routine, but it’s become one of my most favorite parts of my day. 🩶

Five years. 🩶

August 21, 2021 → August 21, 2026.

The photo on the left was taken almost a year into Bode+Ev. I was pouring candles in my dining room trying to turn this little business I had created into something that could support my family.

Five years later, I’m pouring in my own studio + shop that is attached to the coolest store on the most sought after street in Roswell…and this is just the beginning 😉

There were a whole lot of hard days between these two photos. Days I questioned everything. Days I had no idea how I was going to make it work. And plenty of days when quitting most definitely would have been easier.

But I kept pouring.
I kept building.
I kept believing.
I kept going…

And look at how far I’ve come🩶🕯️

Kudos to the coolest store who believes in me too: Two Funky Hippies Boutique✌️

I start almost every morning with my journal (and coffee) 🩶☕️

A few quiet minutes to write down what I’m thinking, what I’m grateful for, or simply what I need that day.

So adding these beautiful journals + handmade crystal pens by Aaron | Life Coach | Meditation • Lucid Dreaming • Metaphysics to the studio just felt like it needed to happen.

A little intention. A little magic. And a really beautiful way to start the day. ✨📖

Come find the journal + crystal that speaks to you—or put the two together for a beautiful, meaningful gift. 🩶

One of my favorite things is seeing and hearing people’s reactions when they walk into my studio for the first time. There really is something magical about this little space.

Tucked into the back corner of a 100-year-old house, in what was once the laundry room and the entryway for everyone who lived here and came to visit, it feels like this room has been welcoming people for a very long time.

Maybe that’s why it feels the way it does.

There’s just something about this space that brings a sense of peace—to me, and to so many people who walk through the door.

I get to create here, doing what I love, and every single day I look around and think about how grateful I am to be here. 🩶

A little behind the scenes of what happens before your candle becomes a candle. 🩶🕯️

Once I pour the wax, the wick has to stay perfectly centered while everything cools and sets — which is why you’ll see those little wooden sticks stretched across every jar.

And then comes the hardest part…waiting. 😬

A freshly poured soy candle isn’t ready to burn right away. It needs time to cure so the wax + fragrance can fully come together and give you the best scent throw when you finally light it.

There’s actually a whole lot of science hiding behind something that looks so simple.

And after 30+ years of doing this, I still love the process. 🩶

In my happy place…thinking, creating, planning and probably overthinking something. 😬🩶

There are always a million things going on behind the scenes at Bode+Ev that no one ever sees.

Some days I’m pouring candles. Some days I’m filling orders. Some days I’m sitting right here with my laptop, a notebook (or three 😂) and an idea I’m trying to figure out.

I’ve been making candles for 30+ years and I still get excited about what I can create next.

Pretty sure that part will never change. 🩶🕯️
