Kindly Candles

Kindly Candles is now proudly owned by local mother-daughter duo, Liv and Jackie. Handcrafted in small batches from their home studio in Blackhead, Dunedin, these premium soy wax candles continue to bring beautiful, comforting scents into homes across Aotearoa. While the faces behind Kindly have changed, the heart of the brand remains the same. Under Marisa’s mentorship, Liv and Jackie have learned not only the craft of candle making, but the care, intention, and attention to detail that make Kindly so special. Liv, a Dunedin local and mum of two, has teamed up with her mum Jackie, mother of five and Nan to eight, to continue the legacy of this much-loved brand. Together, they are proud to keep Kindly Candles a Dunedin-run family business.
