Expanding My Creativity: Growing My Candles & Soap Business While Exploring New Projects

Published on 23 February 2025 at 11:30

When I started making candles and soaps, it was just a hobby—something I enjoyed, something that brought me peace. But as I poured more love and creativity into each product, I realized how much joy it brought not only to me but to others as well. That’s how Mulaika’s Soothing Scent and Suds was born.

Now, as my business continues to grow, I find myself dreaming bigger. I love crafting soothing fragrances and skin-nourishing soaps, but I also feel a spark of excitement when I think about venturing into new creative projects.

Lessons from My Candle & Soap Journey

Building my business has taught me so much—about patience, about the beauty of handmade craftsmanship, and about the importance of self-care. Each candle and soap I make isn’t just a product; it’s an experience, a moment of relaxation, a small luxury in someone’s day.

Through this journey, I’ve learned:

  • The value of quality over quantity—every handcrafted item is special.
  • That the right scents can transform moods, creating comfort, calm, or energy.
  • How fulfilling it is to create something with my hands and share it with the world.

Thinking About New Projects

While candles and soaps will always be my foundation, my creative mind is always buzzing with new ideas. Lately, I’ve been thinking about expanding into other areas—whether it’s additional self-care products, home essentials, or even something completely different.

Some ideas swirling in my mind:

  • Body butters & bath salts – to enhance the self-care experience.
  • Scented room sprays – to bring calming fragrances into any space.
  • Home décor items – because a cozy space enhances well-being.
  • Creative content & workshops – maybe even sharing my knowledge with others who want to start their own craft-based business.

Embracing Growth & Change

One thing I’ve learned in life is that creativity isn’t meant to stay in one place. It evolves, just like we do. Right now, I’m in a space where I’m embracing change, allowing myself to dream bigger, and giving myself permission to try new things.

No matter what new projects I take on, one thing will always remain the same: my commitment to making products that bring joy, relaxation, and beauty into people’s lives.

What’s Next?

As I continue growing my business and exploring new creative ventures, I’d love to hear from you! What types of products or projects would you love to see from me? Let’s dream big together! ✨
