I started Elk & Aura from a simple desire — to slow down. As a mom and a maker, I was always drawn to the quiet moments at home: warm light, gentle scents, simple rituals that helped me feel grounded. I searched for products that were natural, comforting, and thoughtfully made — things that felt as good to use as they looked. When I couldn’t quite find what I was looking for, I began creating them myself.

Inspired by nature’s calm and the quiet strength of the elk, I started blending oils, scents, and textures that brought a sense of balance into everyday life. To me, the elk represents resilience and connection to the earth, while aura is the energy we carry within our homes and ourselves.

Elk & Aura is where those two ideas meet.

Every piece I create is made slowly, in small batches, with intention, care, and respect for the ritual it becomes part of. My hope is that when you use Elk & Aura, you feel a moment of calm — a pause, a breath, a sense of warmth — just as I did while making it.
