Meet The Maker

Hi, I’m Raquel.

What began as a love for creating has grown into a small business centered around fragrance, comfort, and making people feel appreciated. For me it has never been just about selling candles, it is about creating something that can make a home feel warmer, bring back a favorite memory, or simply brighten someone’s day.

I take pride in the personal touches that come with being a small business. From choosing fragrances and creating products to carefully packaging each order, I want my customers to feel like they are receiving something from a friend.

About the Brand

Hand poured,
hand packed, hand delivered.

Every batch is poured by hand in small runs. Wicks are set one at a time, scents are tested before they ever reach the shop, and each order is packed with a small gift of appreciation.

The result is a shelf of everyday comforts made to feel warm, thoughtful, and personal, whether they live in your home, your car, or a gift box on the way to a friend.

“Bringing a little happiness into your space.”
Raquel Thompson White, Owner & Maker

Frequently asked

Answers about our parasoy wax, fragrances, packaging, candle safety, shipping, and custom orders.

Parasoy is a blend of paraffin and soy wax. It gives a smooth, even burn and a stronger scent throw than soy alone, so your candle actually fills the room. Every candle is hand poured in small batches right here in our shop.

Desert Sage, Warm Vanilla Bourbon, Leather and Cedar, Prickly Pear, Sweet Tobacco, and Fresh Linen, with seasonal scents added through the year. Fragrance options appear on each product page.

Every order is packed by hand with care, and we tuck in a small gift of appreciation with each one. We want opening your package to feel like receiving something from a friend, not just another box in the mail.

Trim the wick to about a quarter inch before each burn, keep the flame away from drafts and anything flammable, and never leave a burning candle unattended. On the first burn, let the wax melt all the way to the edge of the tin.

Because everything is hand poured in small batches, orders typically ship within two to three business days. If you need something by a certain date, reach out first and we will do our best to help.

Yes. Custom scents, wedding and party favors, corporate gifts, and fundraiser orders are all welcome. Email igniteyourflame@yahoo.com or call (520) 720-8681 and we will talk it through.
