Welcome to Eli and Things, a haven of exquisite treasures nestled along the picturesque coastline of South Wales. As an independent online store, we take pride in curating a collection of vegan soy wax candles and other handmade delights that are sure to bring a smile and burst of joy to you. Our journey with Eli and Things began amidst the chaos of the pandemic, when the world demanded change and uncertainty loomed over our lives. In this moment of introspection, we made a conscious choice to veer from the fashion industry (which we were a part of for almost 10 years) and embark on a path that would infuse meaning and fulfillment into our lives. The idea behind Eli and Things was to spread small fragments of joy between people, through the gesture of giving. We hope that our handmade gifts and natural soy aesthetic candles spark joy in all those who receive them and also, in those who gift them. We believe that the act of gifting is an art form, a language that transcends words and speaks to the heart. Each product is lovingly handcrafted by us at our home studio, so that we can ensure each one has a personal touch from us to you. Our handmade treasures, carefully curated reflecting our passion and commitment to celebrating the little joys in life whilst being sustainable and kind to our planet. Join us on this enchanting journey as we celebrate the art of giving and the joy it brings.
