About us

Small Rituals. Big Peace.

Bumble & Bean was born from a deeply personal journey. Our founder, Natalie Toppin, started the company after struggling with anxiety and burnout. Searching for calm in a chaotic world, she turned to small, natural rituals—lighting a candle, taking deep breaths, soaking in a bath, going for a walk—and discovered the quiet power of slowing down.

Instead of relying on medication, Natalie began to explore essential oils and holistic self-care. She couldn’t find candles that were truly clean, calming, and affordable—so she made her own. That spark became Bumble & Bean.

Today, every Bumble & Bean candle is handcrafted with purpose: using natural wax, phthalate-free oils, and cotton wicks for a non-toxic, clean burn. Our blends are thoughtfully created to help ease anxiety, support restful sleep, improve focus, and gently balance hormones. And with refillable jars and plastic-free packaging, we’re committed to protecting the planet, too.

We believe in the magic of small moments. Because sometimes, lighting a candle isn’t just about scent—it’s about coming back to yourself.

A Note from Natalie 

Hi, I'm Natalie — founder of Bumble & Bean. 

This brand was born during one of the hardest chapters of my life. After struggling with anxiety and burnout, I knew I needed to find a better way to care for myself—one that felt natural, gentle, and sustainable. I found peace in small moments: lighting a candle, taking a deep breath, stepping outside, and being present.

Bumble & Bean is my way of sharing that peace with you.

Every candle is made with intention, from the clean ingredients we choose to the calm we're hoping to bring into your day. I hope each one becomes part of your own ritual—a little reminder to pause, breathe, and feel grounded.

Thank you for being here.

With love and light,
Natalie Toppin
