Our Story
Hello! I’m Katie, the founder of Scents of Time.
My candle making journey began at the age of 10, during a family road trip to Greenfield Village in Dearborn, Michigan. I still remember the moment I made my very first candle. It sparked a love for fragrance, craftsmanship, and storytelling that’s stayed with me ever since.
I’ve always been captivated by the way scent can evoke emotion, unlock memories, and turn everyday moments into something truly meaningful. Through Scents of Time, I bring together my love of design, fragrance, and nostalgia to create candles that are as personal as they are beautiful.
Lemont, Illinois has always been home. A town rich with warmth, history, and charm. The iconic town clock in downtown Lemont, proudly featured in my logo, isn’t just a local landmark; it’s a symbol of time well spent, roots deeply planted, and stories still unfolding.
Thank you for visiting. I’m so grateful you're here, and I can’t wait to share this passion with you, one candle at a time.
