Kim Galley, owner, began making candles in her basement in 1998 in order to stay at home and earn an income while caring for her school age children. That same year, she established The Kinfolk Candle Company. The name kinfolk was chosen, which is Synonymous with family. Over the years her business has grown and become well known in her home town of Canal Fulton and many shops in Ohio and website sales across the United States and The United Kingdom.

Now, since the year 2021 Kim's youngest daughter has begun working on the family business in hopes to take on the business after she. As a mother - daughter team they motivate each other and have so much fun!

Over the past 27 years, Kinfolk Candles have been part of many festivals and markets in Northeastern Ohio, establishing customers who return year after year, and are like family.

Candle making is an art and a science requiring a lot of testing and blending fragrance and wax. Kinfolk uses a soy, coconut, vegetable, proprietary blend wax formulated specifically for container candles. It can be difficult to produce a “good throwing” candle. The throw is the term used for the scent that the candle gives off both hot (while burning) and cold (not burning). Kinfolk Candles burn clean to the bottom of the container and provide an exceptional scent throw all the way to the end.

They are looking forward to adding you to their family of customers and hopefully provoking some sort of olfactory memory from their exclusive fragrance blends....after all, that is their passion!
