Our Story

We are a small family business based in the beautiful seaside town of Terrigal, NSW. Emma began creating candles in 2020 as a way of keeping up with her candle obsession and from there our little business grew. Jump to the beginning of 2021, and after many customer requests for reed diffusers, Emma decided to try her hand at creating a collection of reed diffusers to compliment our candles and our reed diffuser collection was born.

Emma creates and hand pours all of our products from her kitchen bench and this is her happy place - creating products for customers to experience and enjoy. All of our candles and reed diffusers are still made in small batches and we prefer it this way as we are passionate about making sure each and every candle is as perfect as it can be for our customers to enjoy.

So where did our name 'Molly & Sand Candle Co' come from? Well, firstly this was inspired by Molly our daughter. She is our business' namesake and loves to help out where she can - she is a dab hand at packaging and making our products look beautiful, she is a budding candle enthusiast in the making. Secondly, our family's love of the coast and its sandy shores provided us with the 'Sand' element of our brand name.
