The story behind Eleven45
Where Fragrance Becomes an Experience.
Handcrafted in Atlanta. Rooted in purpose. Designed to create moments worth remembering.
The name
It Started at 11:45 PM.
Eleven45 Candle Co. was created from a simple idea: a candle should do more than smell good. It should become part of your space, your memories, and the moments you create there.
I’m Zhonvieve, founder of Eleven45 Candle Co. My journey began in Compton, California, and eventually brought me to Atlanta, Georgia, where Eleven45 has grown from a creative outlet into a brand centered around handcrafted fragrance, refillable design, education, and shared experiences.
The name Eleven45 holds the most personal part of my story. 11:45 PM is the time my daughter was born — a moment that changed my life and ultimately became the name behind something I could build, nurture, and one day leave as part of my legacy.
Handcrafted differently
Made by Hand. Designed to Stay.
At the heart of Eleven45 are our signature handcrafted concrete candles.
Each vessel is individually made and each candle is hand-poured in small batches using soy wax and carefully selected fragrances. Our concrete vessels are designed to feel substantial, modern, and beautiful enough to remain part of your home long after the first burn.
And when the candle is finished, the vessel doesn’t have to be.
Our soy wax refills allow customers to choose another fragrance, refill their favorite vessel, and experience it all over again.
Keep the vessel.
Change the fragrance.
Create another memory.
More than candles
We Create Experiences.
Some of the best moments around Eleven45 don’t happen at the pouring table in our studio — they happen when people pour together.
Through our mobile candle-making experiences, Eleven45 transforms birthdays, girls’ nights, celebrations, corporate events, employee appreciation experiences, and community gatherings into something people can actually participate in.
Guests choose their fragrances, create their own candles, laugh, connect, learn something new, and leave with something they made themselves.
For companies and organizations, our candle experiences offer a creative alternative to traditional team building centered around connection, conversation, and a memorable shared experience.
From maker to educator
Learn the Craft. Understand the Business.
Teaching has become an important part of the Eleven45 story.
Through candle-making classes, community programs, private instruction, and beginner resources, Zhonvieve helps aspiring makers understand more than simply how to pour wax.
Students can learn candle-making foundations, fragrance and formulas, materials and sourcing, container making, and the business behind turning creativity into a brand.
Sometimes lighting someone else’s candle starts with teaching them how to make their own.
Compton roots. Atlanta grown.
Rooted in Atlanta. Built for More.
Eleven45 is proudly growing in Atlanta, Georgia, with a vision that reaches far beyond candles.
We’re building a fragrance and experience brand where product, creativity, education, sustainability, and community live together.
Whether you’re shopping for your next signature scent, refilling a vessel you already love, learning how to make your first candle, or bringing Eleven45 to your next celebration, there’s more than one way to experience Eleven45.
