Welcome to J.Lilienne Custom Candles

Introducing our 'Pet Celebration' collection: telling your pet's story with every candle®

We specialize in creating one-of-a-kind customized candles to celebrate your one-of-a-kind relationship with your pet - And we invite you to create your own special 'love letter' candle to honor your best friend!

The inspiration behind the creation of  J.Lilienne Custom Candles is our unwavering belief that our relationship with our pet holds the key to our heart

What makes our candles so different?

Our ‘Pet Celebration’ collection custom candles are consciously hand-crafted to celebrate & honor your cherished companion because we believe all of our furry family members are VIPs (Very Important Pets!). At J.Lilienne Custom Candles, we create a 100% unique and aesthetically beautiful label design that makes your own pet the featured star of the story. We also infuse each & every candle with customized fragrance blends. Based on our artistic interpretation, we give back to you a keepsake to be treasured…a ‘love letter’ and a tribute to your best friend that you will not find anywhere else.

Your hand-crafted candle will include: your pet’s picture, your pet's story, your personal relationship with your pet, your pet's unique personality & special characteristics...all written in your own words!

There is something very ritualistic and healing about the lighting of a single candle, and for centuries people have been making and using candles. The Egyptians were using wicked candles in 3000 B.C., and before that, the ancient Romans developed wicked candles by dipping rolled papyrus repeatedly in melted tallow or beeswax. These candles were used to light their homes, to aid travelers at night, and in religious ceremonies. Lighting candles has also traditionally served as an act of devotion or honor; even a rite to represent the marking of a promise. 

At J.Lilienne Custom Candles, we chose to elevate this experience by combining the candle-lighting ritual with an intent to celebrate our beloved pets through personal storytelling

We take customization to the next level...no two candles are alike as no two pets are alike.

And we know only too well how we can celebrate just about anything when it comes to our pets! Whether it be “gotcha” days, birthdays, foster-fail days, special events days, memorials,…or “just because we love you” days, our pets reflect the very best of us and they hold the keys to our hearts.

At J.Lilienne Custom Candles, we are obsessed with candles ourselves, so we take pride in creating each and every individual one, from the very beginning of the process all the way through to the finished product. Our artistic interpretation results in a beautiful hand-poured candle that will complement your home decor and create an ambience that might even spark some heartfelt conversations. We also take pride in our 100% accuracy rate and final product inspection, down to the very smallest of details. We sincerely hope that you will fall in love with our creations that we design, with love, specifically for you and your cherished pet.

We specialize in creating personal and expressive one-of-a-kind customized pet candles...we tell your pet's story with every candle®

And for the wildlife & nature lovers out there, we offer our 'Flora & Fauna' collection

The ‘Flora & Fauna’ collection was a natural extension of our creative vision behind the ‘pet celebration’ candles. This unique collection of 22 candles was inspired by animals in the wild as well as our desire to celebrate the wonders & the beauty of this planet. Our unique interpretations & designs also call attention to our collective need to steward & to protect those that need our help the most.

We offer 3 different collections - Wildlife, Marine Life and Natural World. Every 'Flora & Fauna' candle features a beautiful watercolor artistic rendition printed on heavy estate matte paper. We pour our vegan candle wax with scent blends that conjure the essence of each collection.

GIVING BACK: For every candle you buy from any collection, a portion of our profits will go toward reputable organizations that feel like we do about saving & protecting our companion animals, our endangered wildlife & our fragile environment.

We intentionally built the J.Lilienne custom candle business model from a platform of 'giving back' to not-for-profits that continue to fight for all that is worth fighting for.  Quite frankly, we would have never started our business without this charity component that serves as our mantra and completes the circle of giving.

We are Loving what our Customers are Saying!

What a unique find! I never thought I would find a candle that expresses my love for all animals, fitting perfectly into my vegan lifestyle. The Lemon Verbena scent is divine and the meaningful poem on the front of the candle is very, very special to me. It really makes me so happy every time I light this candle!

Loving the smell of the autumn Pumpkin Bouquet candle and the Turkey candle. I just had to get 2 and try each for our holiday table settings. We haven't burned the Turkey one yet (why 4 stars) but the Pumpkin Bouquet burns well, not too strong. The wooden wicks are a nice warm touch.

The black cat candle smells Sooo good! Love for Halloween! And the decorated top adds such a nice touch, so pretty when it burns. Want to try more from this line.

I loved the PET CELEBRATION candle so much that I bought both options, the cylinder and the cube shapes. One is in our bedroom on my night table and the other is my home office. So everywhere I go I am reminded of our best friend Renegade. He is never forgotten ♥️🌈 RIP my Renegade. The Lampert Family
