How we started You may be interested to know that this business started out as a hobby for me. I've always loved scented candles, and I was buying them to burn in my own home. I decided that I would like to try making them myself. That is when this business came to life. The first candles I made were purchased by my daughter. Then friends of hers were interested in buying them. Then my sisters-in-law, my mother-in-law and others began burning my candles, and Candles Aglow was born.Fragrance List
