Meet the Maker

Welcome to Winter Moon Gifts—where fragrance and art collide to bring comfort and ambiance into everyday life.

I’m Jessie. Based in the mountains of Western Colorado, I’m a one-woman show crafting artisan soy candles, powder-coated metal art, and heart-led goods for people who want their homes (and gifts) to feel like something—calming, meaningful, memorable.

This business bloomed from one of the hardest seasons of my life. A year before I lost my daughter, she was diagnosed with Borderline Personality Disorder—a misunderstood, often misdiagnosed condition that changed everything. After her passing, I was diagnosed with PTSD and trauma response anxiety. In that deep, disorienting fog of grief and mental illness, I found an unexpected comfort in scent. Certain blends softened the sharp edges of pain—even for a moment—and gave me something to hold onto.

Candles became more than just candles. They became tiny rituals of healing, memory, and light. A breath. A pause. A flicker of presence in the chaos.

That’s where the art came in, too. Visually grounding metal pieces that play with light, color, and texture—tools that could refocus my thoughts and help me find my footing. Creating became a way to steady myself. A way to keep moving forward.

And let’s be honest—I’m also a tomboy at heart. Grease-stained jeans, metal grinder in hand, music up too loud kind of gal. There’s something powerful about shaping raw steel into something soulful. It’s art with a backbone. Strength you can hang on your wall.

Winter Moon Gifts is my way of blending grit and grace. The soft with the strong. The personal with the practical.

I believe in comfort that lasts, designs that speak, and gifts that mean something. Everything I make is rooted in sustainability, quality, and a whole lot of heart.

Whether you’re here for a cozy candle, a sensory steel piece, or just browsing for something thoughtful and soul-soothing—you’re always welcome here.

Warmly,
Jessie
