The Story of Summerfield CandlesSummerfield Candles was born in 1982 in St. Helena , CA by Salinda Milicevich. Upon graduating from UOP in Stockton, CA with a BFA , Salinda realized that she had to make a living and traditional avenues (graphic design, art ) did not appeal to her. What did appeal to her was candlemaking. And not just ordinary everyday candles made of paraffin, but those that were upscale and made of 100% beeswax. She loved the fact that they were all natural and safe to burn. In 1983 her husband Mitch quit his full time job and joined her in the business. They participated in their first craft show with the Harvest Festival in Long Beach, CA and sold every item they brought. They have participated in over 600 craft shows and street fairs since.

Today, Summerfield Candles is truly a family owned and operated business. All three children are involved in the business and all are highly skilled in the art of beeswax candlemaking and sales.
Our beeswax is 100% pure and is purchased from local beekeepers. Pure beeswax is virtually dripless and smokeless. It is all natural and nontoxic. We typically only participate in craft shows from Labor Day until Christmas. All of our candles are either hand dipped, twisted or rolled. We do not use molds of any kind. All of Summerfield's candles are nicely packaged and ready to give as either hostess gifts, gifts for teachers or co-workers, or for home décor.
