From My Hands to Your Home: Why I Started the Forgotten + Found Candle Refill Program
If you're anything like me, you’ve probably held onto a candle jar long after the wax burned down—not because you needed more clutter, but because it just felt too beautiful, too meaningful to throw away.
That’s how Forgotten + Found began: with a deep love for second chances and everyday beauty. I’ve always believed that objects carry stories—and that something as simple as a candle jar can deserve a new chapter.
Why I Created an Eco-Friendly Candle Refill Program
Over the years, I noticed how many people would finish a candle, love the vessel, but feel stuck about what to do next. So I created something I wished existed sooner: a candle refill program that makes sustainability simple, personal, and beautiful.
Our refillable candle service helps you keep the jars you love while cutting down on waste. It’s a small but meaningful way to enjoy eco-friendly candles without constantly buying new containers.
How Our Candle Refill Program Works
If you have an empty candle—whether it’s from Forgotten + Found or any other brand—you can send it to me through our Candle Refill Program. I’ll refill it with fresh, clean-burning wax in one of our signature, thoughtfully blended scents. Then I send it back to you, refreshed and ready to glow again.
I personally clean, refill, and repour every candle by hand. This isn’t mass production—it’s slow, intentional work rooted in care. Each refill is my way of helping you reuse what you already have while enjoying your favorite scents (or a new one!).
The Impact of Refillable Candles
The candle industry is beautiful—but it’s also incredibly wasteful. So many gorgeous candle jars end up in landfills every year, despite being perfectly reusable. With our sustainable candle refill program, you’re not just reusing—you’re rewriting the story of that object. You’re saying yes to something more eco-friendly, more soulful, and more meaningful.
Whether you’ve burned one of my vintage-inspired candles or want to give new life to an old favorite, I’d be honored to help you refill the glow.
