Karys Layne Candles was founded by Sheri Lux, whose passion for creativity and design is poured into every candle she creates. Each candle is handcrafted in small batches in Canada using premium soy wax, natural wooden wicks, and fragrance oils sourced from around the world. Every detail — from the crackling wick to the curated scent profiles — is intentionally chosen to elevate your space and shift your mood.

The name Karys Layne is a tribute to two women Sheri’s children never had the chance to meet — their grandmothers. Honoring their memory became the heart of the brand: a reminder that scent can connect us to the people and moments we hold closest.

After years of experimenting and perfecting her craft, Sheri launched Karys Layne Candles in 2017. Just days later, her world changed forever when she became a young widow to a Fallen RCMP Officer. In the months that followed, Sheri returned to her artistic roots — painting, designing, and quietly rebuilding her candle recipes. Creativity became part of her healing, and eventually, her calling. She made the courageous decision to leave her teaching career and pour her energy into building a brand rooted in resilience, beauty, and purpose.

Today, Sheri is an ambassador for Wounded Warriors Canada and an advocate for mental health, sharing her family’s story to help remove the stigma surrounding grief and healing. Her mission is to remind others that strength often rises from the shadows.

Karys Layne Candles is more than a candle company — it is a tribute to transformation. A celebration of healing, intention, and the quiet moments that help us find ourselves again. Your Karys Layne candle is meant to be lit with purpose, as you take time for you.

Most importantly, Karys Layne Candles is a testament to Finding Your Fire.
