Meet the Makers.
Hi! We're Brandon & Katie, the founders of Rivenbark & Company.
Sounds cliche, but as highschool sweethearts we became each other's shoulder to lean on. Brandon's always been the creative one with a million ideas always running through his head, while Katie is the go-getter and has that drive to make something good happen. It all started with an idea and went from there.
We established Rivenbark & Co. in 2018 as a mixed-art collective - lot's of string art, woodworking, and jewelry dabbling. Once the pandemic hit, we were spending a lot of time at home and had the chance to pursue candle making. We always loved candles, but found ourselves buying terribly made, mass-produced candles that caused headaches and just weren't that great. After months of research, ordering, and testing, we launched our first set of candles. Those simple amber jars will always hold a little sentimental value, although they catapulted our production and brand into what it is today.
As always, we thank you for your support. It means more than you know.
