When you love what you do you’ll never work a day in your life”, says Ele, Founder and artistic director of Ele Kauai.
Ele is a self-made business woman who grew up in Southern California with a passion for art and a love of science. As a hobby, Ele would pour candles and create scents for her friends as birthday and holiday gifts.
Using her biology degree to become a patent attorney, Ele found herself excelling in law in both California and New York but knew there was something missing.
After moving to the beautiful Hawaiian islands over ten years ago, Ele reignited her passion for candle-making and realized her dream of being able to work from home and raise her two beautiful children, who often help her come up with fun and playful scents and ideas for her products.
All Ele Kaua’i products are made by hand with love & aloha.
We make small batches of handcrafted candles, linen & air mists, body scents, and bath salts and scrubs on the North Shore of Kauai in the Aloha State of Hawaii. All of our candles are made with GMO free soy wax. We make our candles and Hawaiian bath salts with high quality fragrances and essential oils.
