Candles and Soaps Scented with Plants, not Perfume
Created and poured in County Wicklow to soothe the senses and bring a little delight to every day
A celebration of nature’s ingredients
Welcome to Bread & Weather, a small studio in Wicklow where everything is made by hand, with purpose and delight.
Hi! I’m Ella. I make candles, soaps, and diffusers here in my little barn studio, using nature’s scented ingredients - essential oils. These ingredients are old, alive and wise and I use them to make small, beautiful things that bring pleasure, presence, and joy to daily life.
Lavender, rosemary, vetiver and the 30+ oils I work with, have soothed and scented lives for centuries; my role is simply to honour them. It is my great pleasure to blend, pour, wrap, and send them out into the world to be discovered and enjoyed by new noses.
Whether you're here for a special gift or a small treat for yourself, I hope you find something that brings a little moment of delight to your day.
Please enjoy taking a look around and Read more about where I work if you are curious.
Non Toxic Candles
all natural candles
scented without chemical fragrance
Fill your home with beautiful, plant-based fragrance without unwanted exposure to toxic ingredients. Unlike most scented candles, Bread & Weather candles are made from soy wax (not paraffin) and scented with pure essential oils instead of synthetic fragrance.
Handmade Soap
made from skin-loving and
bee- friendly Irish rapeseed oil
Our handmade soap is gentle, nourishing, and ideal for dry or sensitive skin. Good for you and good for pollinators; our soap supports a biodiverse Irish farm that is rich in bee colonies and native wildlife. Each bar is made in the traditional cold-process method and scented with essential oils for a gentle, natural cleanse.
Plastic Free Gifts
thoughtfully packaged and
shipped 100% plastic free
Caring for the planet is as important to me as creating beautiful products. Every Bread & Weather gift is packaged with intention—free from plastic, palm oil, and petrochemicals—so you can give (or keep) something truly gentle on the earth.
