Formerly known as Mose Mary and Me -- December 2015, Stephanie Kauffman lost her job. She was performing comedy at the time and was broke. Being the holiday season, she wanted to give Christmas gifts to her friends so she decided to make prayer candles with a flair. The first candle design was Mr. Rogers. She didn’t think much about it at the time, as it was just a gift. But when another friend saw the candles, she asked if Stephanie could make her some candles with her favorite folks on them. Jobless and broke, Stephanie had to donate plasma in order to afford to make the first candles for the order. Someone made a Facebook post about the candles, sparking more requests and orders, so Stephanie decided to open an online shop. Stephanie vividly remembers finally scraping together the $13 she needed, to afford her first paper cutter. Then, slowly over time, more stores, and more candle designs, additional opportunities arose. The last five years have been a whirlwind: from a small set of Christmas gifts to a workplace with 5 employees in New Orleans, Stephanie has been humbled and grateful for all the opportunities that have come her way. Stephanie has a great team by her side: Cree and Chelsea making sure you have a little light, laughter and levity to bring your guests.
