Giving back

a little light, a little hope.

Lije means “child” in Amharic. For us, that name is a reminder that what we make can carry a purpose beyond our own home.

every purchase is part of it.

A portion of every Lije purchase helps children and babies in critical need. Giving back is part of why this business exists, alongside our love of making thoughtful candles.

made with care, chosen with purpose.

Your candle is hand-poured to order in Toronto with Canadian grass-fed tallow, lead-free cotton wicks and carefully chosen fragrance blends. Our materials are sourced through Canadian businesses, supporting Canadian farms along the way.

Thank you for making Lije part of your home—and for being part of the purpose behind it.
