Meet the Maker

Hey there! 👋

Thank you so much for popping by and wanting to learn more about Lakes Wax & Co.

I’m Olivia - the founder, creator, packer, and everything in between here at Lakes Wax & Co. It all started back in December 2019 in my little kitchen in the heart of the Lake District. What began as a fun hobby soon grew into something much bigger… so big that my husband and I were literally climbing over boxes just to move around the house!

With lots of support (and plenty of helping hands!) from my amazing husband and my lovely mum, I decided to take the plunge - I left my full-time job and threw myself into Lakes Wax & Co full time. In 2020, we made the big (and honestly pretty scary!) decision to move the business out of the house. Looking back, it was one of the best choices we could have made - it gave me the space to really grow and take Lakes Wax & Co to the next level.

From day one, my mission has been simple: to make luxury home fragrance affordable. I truly believe everyone deserves a home that smells beautiful and feels like a sanctuary - without it costing a fortune.

That’s why every wax melt is:

✨ Made with 100% natural soy wax
✨ Vegan and cruelty-free
✨ Hand-poured with love here in the Lake District
✨ Designed to give you long-lasting, gorgeous fragrance

It’s been such a crazy journey since those first batches poured in my kitchen, and I honestly couldn’t be prouder of how far Lakes Wax & Co has come. Thank you for reading my story, and most importantly, thank you for supporting my little business - it means more than I can put into words.

With love,
Olivia x
