Handcrafted Canadian Candles from Toronto — Sculptural, Decorative & Custom Designs by Artmood Studio

About Artmood Studio — Your Go-To Canadian Candle Brand in Toronto

Hey! We’re Artmood Studio, started in 2024 right here in Toronto. Our passion? Making unique sculptural candles and decorative candles that aren’t just for lighting but are little works of art.

We love combining history, stories, and books into our designs, so you’ll find some public, well-known models along with original creations that keep evolving.

As a proud Canadian candle brand, all our candles are handcrafted locally using the best soy wax — more on that later.


What’s a Canadian Candle Anyway?

If you’re new to this, a Canadian candle basically means a candle designed and made right here in Canada, often handmade, eco-friendly, and with a unique touch of Canadian artistry. At Artmood Studio, we make sure our candles reflect this spirit — from the materials we use to the stories behind each design.


The History and Magic of Candles

Candles have been around for thousands of years! They started as a basic light source before electricity, but over time they became much more — symbols in ceremonies, tools for meditation, gifts, and even home décor.

Traditionally, candles were made from animal fats or beeswax, then later from paraffin wax. Today, soy wax is a favorite among artisan candle makers (like us!) because it’s cleaner burning, eco-friendly, and lasts longer. Unlike paraffin, which is a petroleum byproduct, soy wax comes from soybeans — a natural, renewable resource.


Our Candle Styles — Sculptural, Decorative, Personalized

At Artmood Studio, we focus on several cool styles:

  • Sculptural candles: These are candles shaped like mini sculptures — busts, geometric shapes, or inspired by ancient designs. They’re art you can light!

  • Decorative candles: Perfect for setting a vibe or gifting — they look amazing even unlit.

  • Custom and personalized candles: Want your own design or a special message? We can make it happen!


Why Supporting Local Canadian Makers Matters

We’re proud to be a small Canadian business in Toronto. When you buy from us, you’re not just getting a cool candle — you’re supporting local artists and makers, helping keep the craft alive, and encouraging sustainable business.

Buying local means fresher products, more care in production, and a smaller carbon footprint. So thank you for supporting Canadian candle makers like Artmood Studio!


Materials and Scents We Love

All our candles are made with 100% pure soy wax, which burns cleaner and produces less soot compared to paraffin. This means a healthier space and longer-lasting candles for your home.

We continuously add a variety of new scents so you can choose the ones that best fit your style and make your space smell amazing.
