About the creator and CEO of Recandledkindled:

 

Hi, my name is Ashley Green and I am a proud Miami native with deep Jamaican roots that inspire much of my creativity. After earning both my bachelors and masters degrees from The Florida State University, I chose to make Tallahassee, FL my home for a bit longer, immersing myself in the community and culture that shaped much of my academic journey and life. 

Currently, I teach 11th and 12th grade English in Tallahassee. My classroom is a vibrant space where creativity thrives, and my logo reflects that same playful energy I bring to teaching each day.

At my core, creativity is my driving force—it flows through everything I do, whether it’s designing engaging lessons, decorating my home, or crafting something with my own two hands. That same passion is what sparked my love for candle and soap making.

For me, candles aren’t just objects—they’re stories waiting to be told. Each piece of repurposed glassware holds a history, a life that deserves to be celebrated. What began as a personal hobby, born from my love of soothing scents and handcrafted beauty, quickly grew into something much bigger. Thanks to the encouragement of friends and family, I now get to share this passion with you.

Every candle I create is a labor of love, blending my appreciation for storytelling, sustainability, and community. I hope you enjoy every product as much as I enjoy bringing each of them to life!
