Wanda Kay Schmitz: Crafting Legacy through Love and Artisanship

I am Wanda Kay Schmitz, a Church Point hometown girl. Life took on a new hue when I held my first grandchild in my arms. At that moment, a profound realization dawned upon me – the importance of leaving behind a legacy, no matter how humble.

Imagining the future, I saw my granddaughter and me working hand in hand, bridging generations while instilling the essence of creating excellence. I envisioned teaching her the art of crafting exceptional products and the joy of witnessing customers light up with delight at the scents we carefully poured into each candle and room spray. The thought of us bonding over our shared passion, putting our hearts into crafting, and witnessing the happiness our creations brought to others filled me with an unparalleled sense of purpose.

I envisioned a journey where we strived for greatness in every product we made, where quality and creativity were paramount. As time passed, the legacy we built together would be etched into her life story. In the years to come, she would speak with pride, saying, "This was my granny's candle shop, a place where we wove countless memories."

My heart beats for the act of creation, the joy of crafting, and the fulfillment that comes from offering products that touch people's lives. Yet, beyond the flicker of a candle's flame or the lingering scent of a room spray, the true essence of my endeavor lies in giving back to my granddaughter. She embodies my inspiration, propelling me forward toward realizing my dreams.

In her innocent eyes, I see a future that thrives on the lessons I will impart, and on the values I will pass down. I visualize her growing up with the knowledge that she can shape her dreams into reality, just as her granny did. Each product, each smile evoked, and every memory created is a testament to the love that fuels this journey. So, my why is simple yet profound. It is the drive to create, to bond, and to give back. It is the burning desire to be a guiding light in my granddaughter's life, to be the source of inspiration that propels her towards her own aspirations. As I tread this path of crafting and creation, I am led by the unwavering belief that in kindling the spark of her dreams, I am etching my own legacy into the tapestry of time.
