About Artisanal Chandler
My Philosophy
At Artisanal Chandler, we believe that scented candles should provide you with beautiful fragrances that transform your spaces into galleries of scented art. To accomplish that, I have created a unique process of combining high quality American Soy Wax with Premium Grade Fragrance Oils to exact the best fragrance throw into your home. By using soy wax and cotton braided wicks, my candles burn clean, edge to edge and maximize the fragrances for a perfect blend of clean burn and optimized scent performance. I believe that this combination of quality, size of candle, and scent performance provide my customers with the best candle value on the market, and that this can only be achieved through the true artisan quality of handmade candles.

About Artisanal Chandler
HISTORY
Beginning in 2015, my daughter, Taylor, started making candles in mason jars to sell at school events. The project was called Candles For A Cure , and she donated all the profits to Memorial Sloan Kettering, for cancer research, in memory of her mother.
A few years later as an undergraduate at Wake Forest University, Taylor was accepted into the WF Startup Lab and turned Candles For A Cure into a real business named Benefiscent Candles, and I became a candlemaker obsessed with candle performance and quality. After working together to build the Benefiscent brand, Taylor decided to move to Virginia Beach and exit the business in 2023.
Carrying on the Social Mission of donating a portion of each sale for cancer research, Artisanal Chandler was formed on the foundation of Benefiscent Candles success from 2020 to 2023.
We met a lot of great people who loved both our candles and our social mission, and now, they can continue that relationship through my work as the ........

WHAT IS AN ARTISANAL CHANDLER
A Chandler is a professional candle maker.....that's easy the easy part.....
An Artisan is:
- An artisan is someone who makes a physical item by hand and is an expert in her or his specific trade.
- Artisans shun mass-produced products.
- An Artisan is thoughtful, deliberate, and precise, with an eye for managing detailed aspects of their work.
- A craftsman works with his hands, but an artisan works with his head and his hands, creating an object that generates emotional expression or evokes an emotional response from use of the artisan's creation, even though the created object’s everyday usefulness is still the main consideration.
Our Products
CANDLES
My candles are truly handmade. Every aspect of the production, from cleaning the jars, wicking, blending and mixing the fragrance oils, pouring the scented wax, setting and trimming the wicks, cleaning and labeling the candles, are all done by hand, for the express purpose of creating a high quality candle that performs magically well when lit.
Every candle is made with Soy Wax from American Farms... 100% soy, no blend. The fragrance oils are a blend of essential oils stabilized with synthetic oils that are phthalate free and California Prop 65 compliant, with cotton braided wicks.
CAR DIFFUSERS
My car diffusers are hand filled with the same fragrance oils used in my candles. Hence, they are safer than any of the plug ins or hanging chemical trees sold by the large retailers. These diffusers will last 2-3 months during the heat of summer and 6-8 months in the cooler months. They are refillable making them an eco-friendly choice as well. I sell the refills in the online store.
Social Mission
Artisanal Chandler donates 20% of profits to cancer research. To date, since 2015, we have donated over $50,000 to MSKCC for cancer research, and we will continue donating as long as I make candles for you. Every purchase is included in the donations, including car diffusers and candle care items. We want you as one of our life long customers in order to keep the donations flowing to find a cure for cancer.
Candle Care Products
Optimizing burn time requires proper candle care. Proper candle care is simply, not over burning or under burning your candle each time it is lit, safely extinguishing the wick with a wick dipper and trimming the used, charred wick before each new lighting of the candle.
Hence, I sell wick dippers and wick trimmers in the online store for your convenience. These are the Wickman brand and I have found them to be the best for long term use.
