Hi, I'm Deanna!

As a Candlemaker
I love creating with my hands! I am driven to design candles that will delight your palette, bring about laughter or nostalgia - but most importantly - keep you safe. All E+M candles are free of parabens, phthalates and other toxins.

I am a Brain Tumour Survivour

In 2023, after a whirlwind move to a new province, we began settling in to a new life. Shortly after arriving I had a major medical event which resulted in an urgent CT scan and MRI. I was diagnosed with a large brain tumour called a Meningioma. I underwent surgery 82 days later, and my previously predicted 4cm tumour was, in fact, 6cm. I continue to be in 'active recovery' and thankful to have been given a second chance at life.

Today I am back to pouring your favourite candles! Returning to Eighth + Moon was integral for my mental health and well-being. I pour my heart into this business. I am so grateful for the E+M community.

At Home
When not pouring candles, I am a wife and mother, dog mom, and a pretty okay stand-up comic! I love coffee, board games, and patio weather.
