Local Beginnings

Brownstown Handmade Crafts is a small family run business based in Navan, Co. Meath owned by Sarah & Shane McDonnell. It started in October 2021 after Sarah learned how to make candles during the Covid 19 Pandemic. This quickly expanded to other handmade products such as room and car diffusers, massage and beard balms and wax melts.

Brownstown Handmade Crafts, is predominantly run by Sarah who gave up her job in childcare management to stay at home looking after her son Tadgh and has since gone on to have twins Aiden & Amelia. Shane does some of the important backgorund work, especially in the initial set up phase and at busy market periods. Together they have created Brownstown Handmade Crafts, a small family run Irish Craft business

Brownstown Handmade Crafts offer a variety of products, all of which are 100% natural with no additives and are all handmade. The candles and wax melts are hand poured and made of soy wax. This means there is care and love in every product we sell. We try to ensure a high standard of quality in every product however it does mean slight variations from one product to another, which adds to the character of our wonderful handmade products. Where possible our packaging is recyclable and we reuse delivery packaging for our own deliveries. None of our products are tested on animals.
