Hello :)
My name is Angie Nkau, founder of Nova. We are a home decor business that makes 100 % natural soy-scented candles that are vegan, sustainable and biodegradable. Our candles are made with the utmost love,hand-poured with patience, quality and precision. They have a unique look which is classy and elegant & fit perfectly for your home. They smell absolutely divine and unique. We shy away from the typical scents and we introduce more scents so that customers can have fun trying new notes. We pride ourselves in quality, transparency & and customer service. We plan on branching onto more home products such as diffusers, linen spray, hand wash and so much more.
The NOVA name
I believe names are profound and prophetic, and when naming my brand, I wanted to make sure that the name signified a moment in my life that would serve as a reminder as well as an ongoing meaning that would add value to the vision I wanted for the brand.
Nova means "new" in Latin & it also represents a star that is increasing in its brightness.
It is a reminder and a promise that I can be anew again and that I am light. Candle-making is the exact process. You start from scratch and bring light. It’s the same thing I want for my customers, a reminder that they are light, that there are new mercies every morning, and that you can recreate yourself over and over again.
