Tree in a dip

Beginnings

I grew up in the rural landscape of Northern England, in a small, quaint, historic market town, nestled equidistant between the West and East coasts of England, just south of the border with Scotland. This windblown and breathtaking tapestry of rugged natural beauty, juxtaposed with charming villages and centuries-old farmsteads, where sheep and cattle graze lazily in lush green pastures, has always been a part of me.

The Crossing

As a young adult, I emigrated to the West Coast of America, (after a short spell living in Chicago), embracing new adventures and exciting opportunities. Yet, I often found myself yearning to recapture the nostalgia of my British roots.

The Spark

In the quiet days of the pandemic, I began pouring candles, never expecting the simple act of scent blending to carry me back so vividly. Each fragrance felt like unlocking a memory - a bridge between two worlds. From this discovery, LitBrit Candle Co. was born, along with the Heritage Collection.

A LitBrit candle is more than just a scent - it’s a reminder of places, moments and memories that feel like home.
