Meet the Founder Brittainy

Hi, I’m Brittainy — the heart behind Carats & Candles. I started this brand in 2024 with a simple but powerful belief: that life’s most meaningful moments deserve to be illuminated. For me, it’s never been just about paper. It’s about the joy of pausing, connecting, and making even the smallest gestures feel unforgettable.

The inspiration for Carats & Candles comes from my grandfather, the ultimate maker of moments. He taught me that life isn’t just about milestones, but about embracing the everyday joys too. Whether it was gathering the family together, pulling out a camera to preserve a memory, or turning an ordinary day into something special, my grandfather showed me how meaningful it is to pause and honor those experiences.

Carats & Candles carries that spirit forward. Our stationery is designed to be timeless, elevated, classic with a modern twist — but more than that, it’s meant to create connection. A handwritten note, a thoughtful card, a beautifully wrapped gift…these are simple acts that carry incredible power.

This space isn’t just about showcasing beautiful stationery (though you’ll certainly find plenty of that!). It’s about sharing inspiration, creating connection, and reminding us all to savor life’s fleeting, precious moments. I’m so glad you’re here, and I can’t wait to share this journey with you.

Welcome to Carats & Candles — where paper meets purpose, and every moment matters!
