Hi! I'm Dianna, the founder of TERRA. I honestly just wanted to make some candles one day and have an eco-friendly brand that represented them! I wrote a tweet early on about wanting to start a candle business, but with only having $100 to do so. The tweet sparked a lot of interest, and since then, TERRA's growth has exploded. Reference tweet: https://twitter.com/diannamallen... I'm so excited to announce that I now ship to 17 countries, and I hope you all love what I've created 🥰 I see a bright future for TERRA and hopefully launching on Product Hunt helps to get there quicker. I also created a coupon code exclusively for the PH community, use 'PRODUCTHUNT' at checkout for 25% off your purchase! I'd appreciate to hear your thoughts below 😇👇

Congrats Dianna! Was kind of waiting for this launch! How did you settle on soy? Also what got you into making candles?

@aaronoleary There's a few reasons why I went with soy; it has a long burn time, I love the look of it, it's grown locally in my region of the states, and it doesn't emit toxins into the air as it burns 😄 As far was getting into making candles, this was something I wanted to try since maybe... 2014? I just never had the time, or was too hesitant... so when I came home this past November, I was just like I'm not making this mistake again! I'm making candles! haha And I wanted to make candles just out of curiosity if I would enjoy it, and I really do. It's been so fun ever since 🥰

Terra candles are clearly made with love and care. The scents smell natural and sophisticated, they burn for a long time, and the candles themselves are beautiful! And she pours them by hand; it just feels special to have handmade things in your home. Pro Tip: burn her candles if you own a storefront: I lit her candles while selling my furniture before a move and I swear the upscale atmosphere they created helped me sell out of everything I owned in just 5 days!

Hi Dianna, I've been watching your journey unfold on Twitter and am thrilled to see you launch here. Congrats! You've created a beautiful brand experience and what look to be really clever scent pairings. As a fan of scented candles I'm excited by the oceanic breeze and can't wait to try out the watermint + clementine.

For what it’s worth - sent this to my wife who buys a lot of candles and is used to looking at ounces to understand size/burn time etc across brands and that info is missing. We bought a sampler though!

@shloky I apologize! I include the burn time in each listing, but not the ounces (I will add this info going forward) Regular size is 8oz, mini is 4oz 🤗
