Little Otter Candles, Jessica Alexander says, has emerged from her love for candles and home fragrances and out of many months of research into candle-making. The transformation of her earliest efforts at production became the genesis of the current enterprise following “an outpouring of positive feedback” from family and friends for whom she had produced a modest batch of candles. Their review provided the impetus for her to transform a passion into an entrepreneurial pursuit.
Little Otter Candles was launched during the challenging times of the COVID-19 pandemic. Accordingly, she believes that the venture may well have served to infuse a measure of inspiration and inspiration into the lives of people whose spirits were negatively impacted by the onslaught of the global pandemic.
Jessica’s Little Otter enterprise follows a rich and respected widespread tradition in candle-making. Long perceived as symbolizing life, love and celebration, candles are also commonly used as part of religious ceremonies and holidays events. In each instance they possess a different meaning, depending on the tradition and beliefs associated with the ritual or ceremony.
