A Peek Inside Our Studio

A video tour with Frank

Recently, a videographer named Frank showed up at our door, curious about why we left social media, why we focus on making only a few things really well, why we have plans to implement a steward-ownership structure for the company… and many more whys.

We said, come on in! And here's Frank's video.

In it, Frank investigates our unusual business model and also shows some of the “secrets” behind our artistry: Why our glass feels so nice, why our wicks are easy to remove when you're done with the candle, and more.

If you watch it, I'll be curious to hear your thoughts. Send me a reply!

And a small thing to look forward to: We've been working on a beautiful new video of our own, with a different approach, showing the inside of our candle studio, produced by award-winning filmmaker and longtime Keaper Alyse Shorland. Not quite ready yet, but I look forward to sharing this with you soon.

Have a great weekend!

— Harry from Keap, Steward-Owner
