About

Hi there! 👋 I'm Emily, the face and heart behind Yearnist.

Ever since I can remember, I’ve been obsessed with candles. They’re the ultimate vibe-setter: they warm your home, make everything smell amazing, and can instantly lift your mood. 

At Yearnist, we prioritize sourcing from makers and suppliers here in the USA. Supporting American-made products is close to my heart because it helps local businesses thrive and keeps jobs in our communities. Plus, it just feels good knowing we’re minimizing our environmental footprint by staying close to home.

This isn’t just a store to me; it’s a love letter to connection, laughter, and the cozy, candlelit corners of life. Every time you shop with Yearnist, you’re supporting a small dream and helping me spread joy—one quirky, heartfelt candle at a time.

Thanks for being part of this journey. Seriously, it means the world.

Big hugs,
Emily ❤️
Founder of Yearnist
