Hey! We're Jayme & Kimi! 👋
Welcome to J&K Lab, where we believe that the small things in life – like the scent of a candle or the warmth of a home – can make a big difference. Our journey began during one of life’s most challenging moments, and we’re here to share that story with you.
About J&K Lab
How Candle-Making Became Our Healing
In the midst of the challenges that came with COVID, one of our co-founders, Jayme, faced redundancy and soon struggled with workplace bullying, which led to a diagnosis of depression. During this difficult time, we discovered a simple but powerful form of healing, candle-making. What began as a therapeutic hobby quickly turned into a passion and a way for us to create something that could bring comfort to others. This is how J&K Lab was born.
J&K Lab is a Passion ProjectÂ
While we started purely with hand-poured soy candles, our passion for scent and atmosphere naturally grew. Today, J&K Lab is more than just a business. We’ve expanded our range to include flame-free reed diffusers and instant-refresh room sprays, offering more ways to bring peace, calm, and beautiful fragrance into every corner of your space.
Crafted with Love, from Our Home to Yours
We take great pride in creating every single item by hand. From selecting sustainable ingredients to our final hand-pour and small-batch mixing, every detail is carefully considered to ensure the highest quality. We choose scents that represent a story, a memory, or a feeling of ours. As animal lovers, we also take great care to ensure our entire lineup is pet-safe because your whole home deserves to feel good.
More Than a Candle – A Piece of Our Journey
For us, every candle, diffuser, and room spray is more than just a product – it's a piece of our story. It's a representation of our time, effort, and dedication to creating something that brings genuine comfort to others. When you light a wick or refresh a room with J&K Lab, you're embracing the authentic blend of happiness and peacefulness that defines our creations.
