About us

Hi there!   

Firstly, thank you for visiting my site, secondly I wanted to take the time to introduce myself and let you put a face to Copper Coin Scents!   

I’m Laura and I am the founder of Copper Coin Scents.   I have always had a love for home fragrances but in particular, wax melts. The dream has always been to have my own small business (and eventually a shop) but having spent my recent years being a single parent to a young child I just didn’t have the time or the money available to invest into a business.   

In 2021 I unfortunately lost my grandparents who had very kindly left me a small inheritance. I instantly knew, that now my daughter was older, that I would use the money to make my dream into a reality! I wanted to make them proud! I began, what became almost a year of research, into learning everything I could about running a small business from marketing, to the legal requirements and then finally onto perfecting my products. I finally launched Copper Coin Scents in June of 2022 with just 30 wax melt scents.  Since that time I have more than doubled my range and added home fragrances and bath and body products to the collection - I hope in doing so there is something here for everyone!   

I often get asked where the name ‘Copper Coin Scents’ came from and the answer is my grandparents home. ‘Copper Coin’ was the name of their home and ultimately how my business began so it seemed fitting that it should be incorporated some how. The story is that a copper coin was buried in the foundations of their home to bring luck… I certainly hope that is a sign of things to come!   

My business ran for the first year in my kitchen but I soon outgrew that space, every spare inch of my home was full with products and supplies so I then moved into my own little workshop in attempt to separate home life and work life... Any business owner will tell you that is virtually impossible! However, this gave me the opportunity to expand from wax melts to other hand crafted products and continue to grow Copper Coin Scents. 

Thank you for reading and supporting my small business, Love Laura x
