About At Home In Paradise

I am a full time mum, part time small business boss. We like to make eco friendly, sustainable, vegan, family friendly products that look and smell great in your home but don’t cost the Earth. All of our materials are sourced within the EU with most coming from Ireland to limit our carbon footprint. We are eco conscious people who want the best for our little family. They don’t get to choose what we burn in the house so I choose to burn eco friendly, animal friendly, vegan candles. Candles I trust because I’ve made them in my kitchen. Our scents are always vegan and never tested on animals, subjecting my dogs to my candle tests don’t count, they don’t leave my side and one is a wax eating fiend.... When we first started making candles I wanted an alternative to paraffin and the most readily available wax was soy. Unfortunately soy wax while heavily marketed and promoted is also very heavily genetically modified, with only 3% being sustainable. That was not what I wanted for my candles. We wanted to source our wax as eco friendly as we can. We use rapeseed and coconut oil wax. Rapeseed grows in Europe and is non GMO and coconut oil is a natural and sustainably grown crop. We want there to be a world for our children to enjoy so we all have to do our bit.Read their story
