About Me

Hello! I'm Eleanor
I am so excited to have you here! I hope you enjoy my page, this is something I am really passionate about, so let me introduce you to it.
A Story To Light began in early 2024 and started as a handmade candle business (hence the name, hehe). I started out crafting candles from home, combining scents and writing stories to put on the top of each lid so that when you smelt the candle, it would feel like you were being transported into the scene I had created for you.
After graduating university, although I gained a lot, I felt at a loss because there was this huge question hanging over my head: “What next?” I got a promotion in my ‘muggle’ job, but I still felt dissatisfied because I wasn’t being creative enough. A Story To Light, for me, is a place where I express all my creativity, a safe space for my inner child to come out and let her dreams run wild.
So the next thing I did was start a snail mail letter series, one that doesn’t depend on months but instead tells a story through letters. Since then, I’ve been able to write, film, edit, and learn all the business-y things, and I have never felt more passionate about something.
And I think you know what I’m trying to say here… don’t let that inner child die out. Let your thoughts run wild, and do not let anyone make you feel silly or weird for doing so. I hope this page gives you a sense of escape and entertainment, but also a gentle pull back to reality, to live more seasonally and slowly. Life is not a race; it is about doing what you love most.
Thank you for reading. Please follow along for this journey I have embarked on—I shall document it the best I can. And ultimately, I hope this encourages you to bring your own story to light!
