MEET THE MAKER:
RED HILL CANDLE CO.
Like many candle makers, Red Hill Candle Co. started in a spare bedroom. Unlike many, it now operates from a sizeable factory, with its own beautiful retail space adjacent to a scent lab and library – all set for sleeves-up adventurers.
Four years on from first pouring candles, Ebony Flett moved her business to the Dromana Habitat, where today Red Hill Candle Co. presents scent creation and candle-crafting workshops, with Victoria's first in-store design and custom blend-candle-making encounter.
Ebony and her team have captured the essence of the Peninsula in the soy wax they hand-pour and mould; supporting other regional makers at the same time. The artisan product – aligned with enriching sensory encounters – carves opportunities to delve into the world of fragrances, together with friends and family, learning, connecting, creating memories, and transporting Bayside spirit into homes and offices across Australia.

“IT WAS A HUGE MOVE TO OPEN IN THE DROMANA HABITAT, BUT I’VE FELT INCREDIBLY WELCOME THANKS TO NEIGHBOURING BUSINESSES AND THE ADVENTURERS WHO VISIT AT THE WEEKENDS. NESTLED BETWEEN THE BEAUTIFUL PORT PHILLIP BAY AND THE RED HILL HINTERLAND, I’M PROUD TO CALL THIS SPECIAL PLACE HOME.”
