Made by hand, with love
Hi, I'm Tania.
Lovelore began with love, the deepest kind I know: the love I have for my daughter, Jaylene. She's the quiet thread through everything I make. Jaylene loved the color green, the color of things that keep growing. I like to think Lovelore is a little like that.
The soap came later. I have sensitive skin, and one day in the store I turned a bar of soap over and actually read the label. I couldn't pronounce half of it. I put it back on the shelf and thought, what if I just made my own?
Lovelore is love for this life, for the people who hold us, and for who we're becoming. Every piece is made with the same care I'd give my own family, because once it's in your home, you're part of the story too.
With love,
Tania

Care & shipping
Caring for your candle
On the first light, let the wax melt all the way to the edges, usually two to three hours, so it burns evenly every time after. Trim the wick to about ¼ inch before each burn, burn for no more than four hours at a time, and keep it away from drafts, children and pets. Never leave a burning candle unattended.
Caring for your oyster shell dish
Each shell is hand-finished and sealed, but it's still a little piece of the sea. Wipe it gently with a soft, dry cloth. Keep it out of water and the dishwasher, and avoid harsh cleaners so the gold leaf stays bright.
Using your soap
Let your bar rest on a draining soap dish between uses so it stays firm and lasts longer. Handmade soap is softer than store-bought bars, so keep it out of standing water.
Shipping
Oyster shell dishes ship free in the U.S. through our Etsy shop. Every piece is carefully wrapped by hand and packed to arrive safely. Shipping details for candles and soaps will be shared at launch.
Every piece is handmade
Because each piece is made by hand, small variations in shape, color and gold leaf are part of its story. No two are exactly alike.
