Hey Budai Nation,

Happy Christmas week! Keeping in tune with the festivities, we’ve got an exciting and inspiring story of an e-commerce brand that sells scented candles headed your way today.

We’d like to extend a warm and peppermint welcome to Jennifer Edmonds, the co-founder of Rx Candles. Rx Candles is a homegrown candle brand bootstrapped by Jennfier and her sister Jocelyn. Their story begins in 2013, back when Jocelyn started making DIY candles at home as gifts for her loved ones. These quickly gained popularity, and Jocelyn soon began taking and fulfilling orders out of her home. She even managed to raise an initial round of funding through Kickstarter to launch the brand. Jennifer soon joined in, and the two of them made their way up by working the local markets in and around LA and launching their own e-commerce brand. The brand has been going strong ever since and now has both a flourishing B2B and B2C clientele. Rx Candles managed to create a niche within this extremely competitive industry with their line of 100% soy candles designed in unique neutral shades.

Here’s a quick recap about The Ecom Show before we get started:
