Get to know our artists for the Fall mantelpiece set: Hannah Martin of Near & Native
The next artist featured in our Fall Mantelpiece box is Hannah Martiin of Near & Native!
Hannah is a rockstar that cranks out the most delicious smelling candles - even dubbed "Maine's Favorite candle"! We love Hannah's mission of reducing waste through a proprietary candle refill service, as well as the sleek branding of the Near & Native Candles.
Hannah's fragrance business actually started as a solution to a problem. After moving to Maine, she bought a house and was looking for lightly scented, clean burning candles, but wasn’t finding any great options. Having a fragrance sensitivity, she started playing around with making her own candles, but fragranced with a light hand with premium ingredients.
"I was already making and selling jewelry to local stores in Portland and I began offering a small line of candles as well and they took off quickly. One store turned into 5 then 10 and now we have over 60 retailer partners!" - Hannah Myers
We are so excited to have Hannahs candle as a piece of our mantel box! Scent is hugeeee when it comes to creating a setting and the subtle yet beautiful warm leather scent of this candle from Near & Native is perfect!
