Mar Mar
Based in Los Angeles, Mar Mar creates unique, hand-poured candles that evoke “future memories” – a mix of past experiences and hopes for what is to come. Scents are conceptualized in Downtown Los Angeles, tested and refined in Santa Monica, and eventually poured by Light 4 life in Inglewood. Light 4 Life fosters and creates opportunities for adults with disabilities, teaching them the art of candle making and pouring while instilling self-esteem, enabling self-confidence, gaining independence, and creating financial security.

Xaquixe
Xaquixe is a locally run glass studio in Oaxaca, Mexico. Each piece is made by hand, from start to finish, and made to order. The artisans come from rural communities and towns outside of the city and have spent countless hours learning the techniques and skills to create this special glassware. From the local employees to the resources around the shop, every element of Xaquixe is purposeful and responsible. Ovens run on recycled leftover oils from hotels and restaurants within Oaxaca’s city limits, recycled bottles are crushed and reused, and recently began using biodigestation to allow for the use of organic waste to generate energy.
