LONG POST ALERT: Hi friends. After several months of recovering, contemplation, and reflection, I have decided to permanently close The Anther Candle Co in order to focus on my mental and physical health. Part of my journey inward includes being realistic and honest with myself. And frankly, I do not feel I am able to keep up with the expectations and responsibilities that come with operating a small business. This was (and still is) not an easy realization for me to make, but I have to be honest with myself - and to all of you.
I plan to take this time to go to therapy and find the passion within myself that drove me to start this labor of love 4 years ago. These were some of the best years of my life, and I am beyond grateful for all of the love, support, and insight that I received throughout this wild journey. It’s seriously amazing what you can accomplish when you have people in your corner, and every one of you reading this helped proved that to me.
PS: I am not dying or locking myself in exile, so feel free to keep in touch if you’d like! My personal IG is , which is chock full of random projects, my incredibly tolerant (and incredibly cute) lady, a bit of debauchery, and lots and lots of music.
With love,
Antherny 🌹❤️✌🏻 (couldn’t help myself with the pun, good god)
