Welcome to Bread & Weather, a small studio in the countryside, where home scents are made slowly and calmly, from real ingredients.

Hi! I’m Ella,

Here in my small studio, I blend oils from over 30 botanical origins into scents designed for people who love beautiful, well made things, and simple living.

I make fragrances from plants, not perfume. Oils distilled from flowers, herbs, woods and seeds are blended to enhance their botanical character, and create elegant home scents that are full of life.

Whether you're here for a special gift, or a little treat, I hope you find something that brings a 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

beautifully scented candles, without
the chemical fragrance

Fill your home with elegant scents, 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. These oils have a depth and nuance that artificial versions can’t replicate. Your nose will be so delighted you finally found them.

Non-Toxic Candles

Skin Soothing Soaps

Free from all synthetic ingredients, and generously scented with essential oils, handmade soap is the original simple skincare, and long overdue a comeback.

🐝 Ours is even made with Irish rapeseed oil, from a biodiverse family farm
