Lina Bloom Ocean Mist and Sea Salt & Orchid soy candles in a sunlit summer flat lay with shells and eucalyptus

Welcome to LinaBloom Candle Co. — a note from Andrew

Hi. I'm Andrew. If you found this site through Moody Brews Cafe, a farmers market, an Instagram post, or just by typing "hand-poured candles Cumming Georgia" into Google — welcome.

This is the new home for LinaBloom Candle Co. Same candles, same hands pouring them, same kitchen in Cumming. The site is new and so is the way we sell — but the work itself hasn't changed.

I want to use this first post to say two things plainly.

One: why I rebuilt the site

The old site grew sideways. Every new scent became a new page. Every size became a new page. Bundles got named by spec sheet ("1x 8oz candle + 1x 1.85oz snap-bar"). Customers told me they couldn't find what they were smelling at the cafe.

So I tore it down and started over. The new site is built around scent families instead of ounces — Floral, Gourmand, Woody, Fresh, Seasonal. Each scent has one page that covers every size and format. Returns are simple. Shipping has a real hot-weather hold for the summer. And there's a real story attached to every candle, not just a list of wax types.

If you've been around for a while, the catalog is the same. If you're new — start with the Maker's Picks.

Two: a small note about purpose

I started LinaBloom Candle Co. on evenings and weekends. It's still a side hustle — but it's a side hustle with intent. A portion of every sale supports a children's ministry in Kenya. It's a quiet part of the company, and I'm not going to put it on the hero of the homepage with a counter on it. It's just the answer to "why."

What's next

A few things on the near horizon:

  • More scents at Moody Brews. I'm rotating new scents onto the cafe shelf every month or two. Follow @linabloomcandle on Instagram to see what's there now.
  • Markets. I'm applying to a handful of north-Atlanta farmers markets for 2026 and 2027. The full schedule lives on the Find Us page.
  • Fall scents. Late August. Maple Mornings, Patio Protector, and a couple new ones I'm testing.
  • Soap line. The bar soap is small-batch and slow to cure. I'm putting out a few more scents over the summer.

Thanks for being here. If you ever want to ask about a scent, a burn issue, a custom order, or just to say hi — write to me.
