When you light a Resistance Candle, you’re not just adding fragrance to your home—you’re honoring the legacy of freedom. Crafted by a homeschool family of seven in Washington State, these small-batch candles are designed for patriots who still believe in the original values that shaped this nation: faith, family, and liberty.
Why We Created Resistance Candles
We’ve spent the last five years immersed in the art of premium candle-making—custom fragrance blends, clean-burning waxes, and immersive scent stories. But the more we looked at the candle market, the more we noticed a gap: Where were the candles that reflected our values?
We love America. We homeschool our kids. And we believe in the founding principles of 1776. So we launched Resistance Candles to bring together artisan craftsmanship and American heritage in a way no one else was doing.
Our goal is simple: create candles that smell amazing—and stand for something.
What Makes Our Patriotic Candles Different
Unlike big-box brands, our candles aren’t churned out overseas with generic scent oils and synthetic wax. Every Resistance Candle is:
-
100% made in the USA
-
Hand-poured in small batches in Washington State
-
Crafted with a premium soy-free coconut-apricot wax for a smooth, even burn
-
Scented with phthalate-free, non-toxic, pet-safe custom perfume-grade fragrance oils
We don’t sell sugar cookie or lavender vanilla. We craft historically inspired, masculine, bold, and meaningful fragrances that reflect the spirit of the American people.
Crafted for Conservatives, Families, and Freedom-Lovers
Our brand is built on timeless American values:
-
Patriotism
-
Faith in God
-
Traditional family structure
-
Local production
-
Resistance to tyranny and government overreach
This isn’t about partisan politics or trending soundbites. We’re focused on preserving what never should have changed: the beliefs that birthed this country.
The Power of Scent to Preserve American Heritage
We believe scent is one of the most powerful ways to evoke memory and meaning. That’s why our most requested fragrance profiles so far include:
-
Gunpowder
-
Aged leather
-
Sea salt air
-
Bourbon barrels
-
Ink and parchment
-
Polished wood
-
Old books
Each candle is carefully designed to stir something in the soul—whether that’s reverence for the Founding Fathers or a fire to resist modern-day tyranny.
How We Make Our American-Made Candles
Our candles are made in our boutique candle house by real people who care. As a family-run business, we pour each batch with attention to detail, premium materials, and a respect for craftsmanship that’s hard to find today.
-
We use premium coconut-apricot wax for its clean burn and smooth finish.
-
Our custom fragrances are blended to be complex and layered—not overpowering or artificial.
-
Each candle is poured, labeled, and packed in the USA by our team.
When you buy a Resistance Candle, you support local families, American jobs, and a movement that still believes freedom is worth defending.
