Dan and Amy Bracken started making candles as a fun side hobby. When friends and family started buying them, Bracken Candle Co. was born. Dan is also a photographer and multimedia designer.

Bracken Candles are hand-poured with Golden 464 soy wax, using carefully selected pre-designed fragrances. They are not always available because Dan and Amy are primarily committed to their full-time careers and therefore only make one or two batches a year. Look for fresh candles every Fall (and Spring on occasion). Amy is a professional, independently licensed counselor and clinical supervisor. Dan is a non-profit communication director. They do creative stuff on the side because they enjoy it.

In addition to their creative endeavors, Amy and Dan have twin children. Proceeds from Bracken Candle & Craft sales benefit their kids’ various athletic, creative and philanthropic pursuits. Want to give a little extra? Make a donation!
