The relationship between a mother and daughter can only truly be understood by mothers and daughters. They can go from fighting to laughing in a second, but one thing remains constant, their unconditional love for one another. White Aura came to fruition when a mother and daughter brought their lifetime love for candles and each other together. The local duo creates handmade organic soy candles with intoxicating essential oils that not only smell incredible, but look beautiful too.
Included in the #KelownaStrong prize package: $100 Gift Certificate to White Aura Candles

Flury Naturals was founded from the need for self care. It's the story of the ages: burn out. Local founders, Kelsey and Sam, have both faced burn out and were lucky enough to find the tools to help with stress management and self care. One of those tools was bath products, which they quickly realized others needed as well. Family and friends were gifted soaks and bath bombs for a few months before the suggestion of bringing it to market. Now, here they are, forged from the fire and ready to regulate and supply tools for your self care routine.

The creator and founder of this local gem has always enjoyed the gift of being a creative person, pouring her heart into singing, painting, drawing, and playing piano. It was the popular jewelry catalog circulating the lunchroom at work that intrigued Shantelle to begin crafting pieces of her own. Pink Raven Jewelry is Shantelle’s small shop in which she makes and sells delicate and modern as well as luxe bohemian-style jewelry. Each piece is handcrafted in her home studio that is bursting at the seams with beads and paraphernalia, but she wouldn’t have it any other way!
