At Bode+Ev, candle-making isn’t just a craft—it’s a calling. Every candle poured is a reflection of love, care, and intention, and that’s why I make all of my candles in small batches. This isn’t just a production choice; it’s a part of my story and my promise to you.
Here’s why small-batch candle pouring matters—and why it makes all the difference.
1. Quality Over Quantity
When you make candles in small batches, you’re hands-on every step of the way. That means no shortcuts, no mass-production machinery, and no compromise on quality. Every candle is hand-poured with care, allowing me to maintain strict control over the ingredients, scent load, and consistency from one pour to the next.
This ensures that each Bode+Ev candle you light is clean burning, beautifully scented, and made with the same integrity as the last.
2. Scent Perfection, Every Time
Fragrance is personal—and getting it just right takes finesse. Small batch pouring allows me to test, tweak, and perfect scent blends so that each candle smells as intentional as it was meant to. I'm able to explore seasonal ingredients, create scents tailored to each zodiac sign, and bring depth and balance to every fragrance story.
You won’t find cookie-cutter candles here—only unique blends that evoke memory, mood, and meaning.
3. Freshness Guaranteed
Small batches mean we’re constantly pouring fresh product. That means you’re never getting candles that have been sitting on shelves for months or mass-produced overseas. When you order from Bode+Ev, your candle has likely been poured just days or weeks before it lands on your doorstep. The result? Peak fragrance performance and a stronger, longer-lasting scent throw.
4. A Personal Touch in Every Pour
At Bode+Ev, I'm a small business with big heart. As a single mama-founded brand born during a moment of reinvention, every candle is part of a bigger journey—mine, and yours. When I pour in small batches, I’m able to stay close to the process. From scent blending to wick selection to the final label, everything is done with purpose and care.
This isn’t just a product—it’s a connection. And it’s personal.
5. Sustainability + Mindfulness
Making in small batches naturally leads to less waste, more intention, and greater sustainability. I only pour what’s needed, reduce excess inventory, and use every drop of wax with care. This approach supports our commitment to clean ingredients, eco-conscious practices, and mindful making.
Because being good to you means being good to the planet, too.
The Final Pour:
In a world of fast everything, Bode+Ev believes in slowing down. In small batches, there is soul. There is attention. There is meaning. That’s what makes my candles different—and why they feel so special when you light them.
So next time you strike a match, know this: your candle was made with love, just for you.
