Hello everyone 👋🏼 I am Lizzet Melendez the face
behind "Lizzies Little Flames" 🕯️✨
I am a sahm of three little boys from California. I quit my job after having my second child in order to not leave my baby in daycare & did not think I would stay at home for long. Than surprise, I had a third baby on the way not long after my second. ® I've always had it in my heart to start this small business of mine for years but because I was a busy mom, thinking I would end up going back to work, plus not to mention how scary it is to start not knowing much about it, just scared to fail. It takes guts & it truly isn't for the weak knowing everyone is watching and criticizing you while being a shy and introvert person, yet | finally started.
I had given up on candles a long time ago after finding out how truly toxic they really are and just threw out my collection of bath and body works, Ross, TjMax, and Yankee candles. I missed having that candle vibe and even tho I'm crazy busy with my kids, I decided to start that hobby/business that was in my heart for the longest. I felt like I needed to do something for myself rather than just being a mom so might as well be something I love. This way I know exactly what is in my candles that I'm burning knowing they won't be no where near as toxic as the typical stores and share with you all my work/journey and make a little income out of it as well.
But yes besides the whole candle thing 1 am simply a tired mom who likes a good time, good vibes, don't like to talk much unless I'm comfortable with you, loves God, family & friends, sunsets, beaches, shopping, and CANDLES.
This is a one person show, I do it all myself, but my husband is the reason I started. He funds it all while taking care of everything else already. Forever thankful for him. I might be the face of it, but he's definitely the backbone.
Thanks so much for being here and supporting our family, it means the world.
All our love,
Lizzet, Miguel, Jojo, Leo, and Gio
