Candles for a Cause

I have to say this was just supposed to be a fun hobby. But I enjoy helping people too.

Making candles has always been fun for me. So we started Candles for a Cause on my website www.backyardog.shop. I also started making candles for my eBay shop. So far, I've had one sold and a few more with bids. Candles are great gifts. I know they will light up someone's life. With every candle auction, it will benefit a charity. It's a candle for a cause after all. My favorite scent is vanilla and it has been for years. I was a little pyro and the candles were pleasant to watch. I'm sure I had adult supervision when playing with candles. But long story short I'm a Veteran owned business. I enjoy camping, hiking, and kayaking. I plan on making more candles for a cause to help the charity I choose.

Hopefully, you'll enjoy the candles I make if you've read this far and were able to make a purchase.

Be sure to check out our eBay Shop. Happy bidding!
