Hello. My name is Bohdana. Before the war, I worked as a salesman and was looking for my favorite business. But I was afraid to start everything. The war changed everything. After 4 months, I returned from the capital home to my relatives. But it's time to return, at work they asked the question either I return, or I can't claim a salary, even though I worked remotely. When I came back, I realized that there is never a good time to start your business. Still, I decided to start slowly, mostly because I'm trying to donate to the needs of the army, but due to the 50% cut in salary, the increase in prices in stores and services, it does not quite reach the amount that my husband and I earned in the first months of starting make wax candles. They are ecological and do not harm health. But if you are allergic to bee products, it is better not to buy wax candles. Now, little by little, I am mastering different techniques and types of candles. Although it's hard to call it a business, now it's more of a hobby to help the country in hard times.
