Creating Elegant Memories

---

I love elegant things. Historical things, filigree things, whatever small brass detail tickles my fancy. 

I grew in farm country with sweeping fields, corgates and combines, and while I loved it, wished I lived somewhere “beautiful.” I’ve since found there few places that have the natural beauty of sweeping farmlands, but I craved seeing the elaborate architecture, antique lampposts and cobbled stones of older cities.

Enter Kat’s Candles with my mentor, JoanAnn Piper. Working at the Shoppe, my hands got to create little sculptures that satisfied that craving until the recession hit in 2008. I joined the Army, deployed, found my life partner, earned my degree, and settled in historic Helena, Montana.

Offered the company in 2019, and rebranded to what you see here, I'm appreciative of the support and trust JoanAnn had in me from my humble beginnings. I'm honored to continue with her legacy, and am excited to share this elaborate art with those around me.

Any way you manage, I would love to hear from you.
