✨ Welcome to The Shadowed Books, the blog of Cressa Candles
Every flame tells a story — of creation, emotion, and connection. Here at Cressa Candles, we blend scent, art, and spirit to craft moments that linger long after the wick fades. This space is where we share the heart behind our work — the inspiration, the energy, and the magic that fuels every creation.
🌙 The Spark That Started It All: The Story of Cressa Candles
Every flame begins with a spark — and for us, that spark became Cressa Candles.
Our story began with Briar Rose and a mutual friend who had an incredible gift for seeing potential in new endeavors. They were talking about creativity, possibility, and the beauty of building something meaningful. Sensing something special in the conversation, that friend reached out to Michael, offering him a domain name and a simple invitation: “See what you can create together.”
After planting that seed, the friend stepped back — but the spark had already caught flame.
What started as a small exploration of scent soon grew into something much deeper: a brand that bridges art, energy, and emotion. Briar began blending fragrances that evoked memories and feelings, while Michael brought the vision to life online — shaping the identity, voice, and story that would become Cressa Candles.
From those first candles came a world of creation: wax figurines, reed diffusers, body oils, artwork, and spiritual readings — each piece crafted with care, intention, and meaning. Our work is more than what you see or smell; it’s what you feel. Every scent tells a story, every product carries energy, and every creation is a reflection of connection — between the maker, the element, and the one who receives it.
At our heart, Cressa Candles is about enriching lives through artistry, intuition, and craftsmanship. We call our work holistic sensory experiences, because each piece — whether it’s a candle, artwork, or spiritual reading — is designed to awaken the senses, soothe the soul, and inspire wonder.
This blog marks a new chapter in our journey — a space where we’ll share more of the magic behind the flame. Here, we’ll explore scent stories, the creative process, the energy behind our collections, and the deeper meaning woven into what we make.
