Charming & Cosy Scents
Hand-poured using 100% eco-soy wax & always phthalate and paraben free for a clean burn.
By The Pines
Imagine curling up by a crackling fire, the scent of wild gardens drifting through an open window—that’s the feeling we chase here at By The Pines.
We believe that you don't need a postcode in the hills to enjoy the slow, simple magic of the countryside. Our candles and wax melts are hand-poured in our studio to bring that rustic, lived-in charm straight to you, whether you’re based in the countryside or chasing that feeling in a city flat or a modern terrace.
Each scent is a little journey, crafted to help you carve out a cosy sanctuary and turn any room into a rural retreat. We are so proud to use 100% eco soy wax and fragrances with no nasties (you won't find any parabens or phthalates here!) so you can fill your home with beautiful scents and total peace of mind.
Your candle makers,
Simona & Sean
Meet The Team
Hello! We are Simona and Sean, the duo behind By The Pines. Our journey began in our kitchen out of a personal need for better, cleaner home fragrance. As someone who suffers from migraines (Simona) I found it difficult to find scents that didn't trigger a headache, while Sean’s asthma meant we had to be incredibly mindful of what we were burning. We set out to create high-quality, clean candles that we could finally enjoy ourselves without any compromise.
Today, we’ve turned that passion into a reality in our candle Studio based in Southport. Sean is our master maker, hand-pouring every candle and wax melt with precision and care. Simona is the one who ensures your treats arrive safely, beautifully packing every single order that leaves our studio. We are so happy to share our favourite scents with you!
