Stacy & Barry Miller
Sea Love Founders
We are a husband-and-wife team who love making & creating and adore the lifestyle of coastal living. When not making candles with our crew, we love spending time with our grandsons, Cruz and Henry, walking the beaches with our two fur babies, Chewbacca & Cleo, and exploring our beautiful coastal towns in New England.
Stacy started making candles in her basement in 2017 because Barry has asthma. After learning most common candles on the market are filled with toxic paraffin wax bases, she started experimenting with natural waxes. After a year of making candles as a craft for herself and her friends, paired with feeling that her career path was not meeting her desire to help people, Stacy came up with the idea of Sea Love; a company that blended her loves (the sea and clean burning candles!), with a passion to help promote living a healthier lifestyle and giving back with environmental consciousness.
We are now entrepreneurs who work side by side together and have turned a passion project into a life
we love -- and we would love to welcome you into the Sea Love family!
