Elm Design was created from a deep love of Whidbey Island — its quiet beaches, towering cedar forests, and the sense of calm that comes from being surrounded by nature. Every scent we create is inspired by those moments: salty air carried on the breeze, sun-warmed driftwood, and the grounding stillness of the woods.

Our candles are hand-crafted to help you step away from the noise of everyday life and return to a place of ease. With clean fragrances, eco-friendly vessels, and thoughtfully layered scents, each candle is designed to bring the feeling of the island into your home — wherever you are.

Elm Design began when founder Erin Morgan took a leap of faith, choosing creativity, purpose, and heart over staying comfortable. The brand was built on believing in yourself, following what calls to you, and creating something meaningful — even when it feels scary.

In early 2022, Meggan Lubach joined Erin, bringing her own passion and care to the craft. What started as learning a new skill quickly became a shared joy in creating candles meant to comfort, calm, and connect.

When you light an Elm Design candle, you’re not just enjoying a scent — you’re creating a moment. A pause. A reminder to slow down, breathe deeply, and feel at home.
