OUR STORY
Handmade for You
Birchwood Bath & Candle Co. was born from a deep passion for crafting and a desire to create cleaner, healthier products for the body. Yvonne, our founder, began making her own soaps and skincare six years ago after discovering the harmful ingredients in many store-bought products. What started as a way to make safer alternatives for her family quickly grew into a passionate craft that she continues to learn and evolve with every day.
At Birchwood, every ingredient is carefully chosen to be gentle on both you and the environment—because self-care should always be pure, simple, and sustainable.
OUR FOUNDER
Meet Yvonne
Hi, I’m Yvonne, the heart behind Birchwood Bath & Candle Co. My journey began six years ago when I became passionate about creating skincare products that were not only good for me but good for the planet. After learning about the harmful ingredients in many store-bought products, I knew I had to make a change. What started as a hobby soon turned into a deep passion for crafting clean, natural alternatives that I could trust and feel good about using on my family.
I’m a firm believer that self-care should always come from the purest ingredients, which is why every product at Birchwood is made with intention—using only the best natural elements that nourish both you and the environment.
Outside of Birchwood, I’m passionate about wellness in all its forms—whether it’s exploring nature, practicing mindfulness, or learning something new every day. I love the process of creating, and it’s my mission to share that love with you through every product we offer.
Our Promise: To create products you can trust, with ingredients you recognize, so you can feel good about every purchase and every moment of self-care.
