Our Company Story

Hey there, welcome to our shop!

I'm Beverly, the proud owner and creator of Country Bumpkin Candle Company, as well as a dog mom, a cat mom, a duck mom, and is happily married to my best friend. I live in a small town in the beautiful Blue Ridge Mountains of North Carolina, where I have lived my whole life.

I've always had a thing for candles - their scent, the way they flicker in the dark - it's been an obsession of mine for as long as I can remember. But it wasn't until about four years ago that the idea of actually making them struck me.

Back then, I was working at the local Sheriff's office, and with my four days off each week, I wanted something to keep me busy. One night, while on duty, the thought of learning candle-making popped into my head. I spent weeks researching and watching videos, determined to master the craft. Finally, I mustered up the courage to make my first candle, driving down to the local craft store to get all the necessary supplies.

Let me tell you, candle-making is no walk in the park. It took trial and error and lots of failed batches, but once I poured that first candle, I knew I was hooked. The satisfaction felt like a kid devouring their first candy bar. I couldn't stop creating and experimenting until I crafted a truly amazing-smelling candle. That's when the idea of starting a business hit me - I was addicted to making them and wanted to share these incredible candles with everyone!

As my candle-making journey progressed, I began expanding my range, adding different scents and sizes and even branching out into wax melts and bath products. Now, I can't imagine my life without immersing myself in the world of candles. I'm thrilled to see where this small business takes me, and your support means the world to me.

So Thank you for indulging my candle-making addiction and being a part of this exciting journey.
