How our Petaluma came to be, and the furry friend who inspired it. 🤍

We waited months for Mookie to be born. When the day finally came the three of us - me, my husband, and our youngest - got on a plane to Petaluma, CA to meet him.

A small town an hour north of San Francisco, we fell in love with this place.

It had that feeling. Ease, color character. And of course, we fell in love with Mookie!

That trip, the town, the memories became PETALUMA - the scent I reach for more than any other one we have poured.

And we know you will too 🤍

Same hands. Same wax. Seven years of pours.

Believe it or not, the the first ones happened on our kitchen counter. The latest ones are happening in our backhouse studio, and somehow it still feels like the same little operation it always was.

Every candle in this video went to someone's home, someone's mom, someone's "just because." Thousands of moments, one pour at a time. 🤍

Annie's brother Jack has been behind the camera for Backhouse since day one. So when his sister got engaged, there was only ever going to be one candle on her shower table. 🤍

Tennessee orange. Newport Beach sunshine. Our best-selling custom mini candles.

We poured these for Annie - and for the family that's been part of ours since the very beginning. Annie, we are so excited for you and can't wait for your big day!

Introducing a new series: Backhouse Brides. The brides, the showers, the weddings, the moments - all the ways our candles end up in the most personal celebrations of someone's life. Follow along 🤍

I lived on Apolena Avenue for one year.

A tiny white house with a marine blue door. Balboa Island. Every
street named for a gemstone, one little bridge in.

It was a transitional year. The kind where you're not sure what's
next, and the only thing to do is keep walking.

So I walked. Down to the bay most mornings. Watched the seals
sneak onto the boats. Let the salt air do whatever it was doing.

That year is what Apolena smells like. Sea salt, sage, a soft bit
of ambrette underneath. The calmest scent we make.

Some scents are invented. This one is remembered. ■
