About Me

 

Welcome to Mar-Lo’s Handmade! I’m Marlo, the heart and hands behind every product created. Each product is thoughtfully crafted to bring beauty, comfort, and a sense of calm to your space—while being kind to the planet.

The name “Mar-Lo’s” is deeply personal. It’s a blend of my grandmothers’ names, Margaret and Lois—two women whose strength and love inspired me. As a kid, I didn’t always appreciate my unique name, but over time, I’ve come to love it—just like I’ve come to cherish the uniqueness of what I create. Mar-Lo’s Handmade is rooted in legacy, storytelling, and heart.

Every candle is hand-poured in small batches using sustainably sourced coconut apricot wax, free from parabens, phthalates, and harsh chemicals. The result? A smooth, creamy wax that burns cleanly and evenly, enhanced by the cozy crackle of a wooden wick.

Our fragrances are one-of-a-kind—designed to elevate your daily rituals, fill your home with warmth, and create moments of peace. Whether you're starting your morning with intention or winding down after a long day, there's a Mar-Lo’s candle to match your mood.

Sustainability is at the core of what we do. From wax to packaging, we make choices that support a cleaner, more thoughtful lifestyle. Our vessels are meant to be reused or repurposed—so the story continues long after the final burn.

At Mar-Lo’s Handmade, you’re not just lighting a candle—you’re bringing home something meaningful. A product made with love, shaped by story, and designed to brighten your world in more ways than one.

Warmly,
Marlo
