About Me
Shameeka Ewing
My name is Shameeka Ewing and I am a African American women. I’ve been married for seven years and we have two beautiful boys together. During the pandemic is where my candle making journey started. I always loved candles but it was always frustrating finding ones that filled a room. In addition every candle company seemed to lack unique style. During the pandemic, I became bored out of my mind and knew I needed something to do. I literally googled “Hobbies that I can make and also make money”. Yes, I wanted a hobby but I was also thinking of opening up a business. Becoming my own boss has always been a goal of mines. I actually owned a Beauty Supply Store in EastChicago, Indiana, a few years ago. While, this is a brand new business, I now have experience as business owner. With that being said, I started from scratch in my basement. First, I only use products from Hobby Lobby, Micheals, or Jo-Ann’s Crafting Store. My Journey has suppress those companies. I currently only shop with the top brand candle suppliers across the nation. Whom provides me with the best candle waxes, fragrance oils, wicks and vessels. Everything about your shopping experience with “Handmade By Me”, will be of elegant and class. Every part of each item on my online store is hand pick from the most well known exquisite companies in the world. Some of these candles have an aroma so strong that it will sweep you off your feet.
