about us
our products are inspired by life
Growing up in the Chicago suburbs, I always knew there was more to see than my neighborhood.
But the one thing that tied me to home was my grandma. She was such a huge, positive influence on all that she met. I was taught from an early age to live life to the fullest. To have fun, enjoy others and celebrate everything. I decided to transfer to a college in Los Angeles, even though I had only been there once. As the day of my departure drew near, I began second guessing and questioning if I was making the right choice. My grandma dropped me off at the airport and could see that I was struggling with my decision. She told me that while it broke her heart to see me so upset, she knew I would regret not going for the rest of my life. It was time to go on a new adventure.
A few years later, we were back in Chicago
where I had graduated with a degree in Graphic Design and was working hard as a stay-at-home mom. My grandma, whose advice had given me the strength to go after everything I wanted in life and had given me all of the amazing things I now had, passed away suddenly. My biggest supporter and the biggest proponent of living life to the fullest was gone. As heartbreaking as this was, I had a moment of clarity- life was too short to not do what I wanted. I had always dreamed of owning my own business. I had watched my father spend long nights after his 9 to 5 job developing what would later become his business, had seen my mother return to nursing school, poring over her textbooks at the kitchen table until she earned a degree with high honors. I knew it would be difficult, I knew I would have to bust my ass and have those long nights, but I knew it would make my grandma proud. I bought a few supplies, started testing wax, wicks, and fragrances, and started an Etsy store with just a few scents. Now, running Beverly and 3rd is my full time job.
