The collection

Every candle is poured, labeled and sniff-tested by humans who thought the joke was funny.

Our story

Greeting cards get thrown away. Candles get lit.

Luma & Co. started with one 40th-birthday candle and a simple observation: the best gifts do two things at once — they make someone laugh in the moment, and they stick around afterward.

So we pour 100% soy wax into a heavy glass jar, top it with a cotton wick, and print the thing you were going to say anyway on the front. Lavender and vanilla do the rest.

"Got it for my best friend's divorce party. She cried, then laughed, then lit it immediately. 10/10 would recommend for fresh starts."
