Wandering through the candle aisles of major retailers always offered moments of peace for Kris, but she began to crave scents that had not yet been featured on shelves.

She set out to create a handful of her own nontoxic, vegan, and chemical free candles to grace her home and quickly realized she had discovered a love for aromatherapy. Upon sifting through websites that offered candle starter kits, watching tutorials on Youtube, and teaching herself the science of blending fragrance notes, Alchemy Melts was born.

Today, Kris sells her candles with care and intention online and at local markets around Augusta, Georgia and neighboring cities including Atlanta, GA and Columbia, SC.
