About Clean Haven

Handmade. High-quality. Safe for your family.

Welcome to Clean Haven Naturals. If you love all things HOME, I hope this will become your “happy place” like it is for me and so many others!

My name is Charlene and I started Clean Haven Naturals out of a desire to create products made of clean, high-quality ingredients so your home can feel like a safe retreat.

  • All soy-based products are created from pure, non-GMO, USA-made soy.
  • All fragrances are 100% phthalate-free
  • All products are hand-made in small batches with YOU in mind

This is my passion. I spend hours testing and perfecting everything in my shop. Every candle is hand-poured with love. Every subscription box is filled with carefully selected products. Every scent is chosen with intention.

My goal is to help you create a home that feels like a clean haven, filled with unique items that you absolutely love.

But wait . . . how did we get here?

I am so blessed to have a thriving business with a wonderful community surrounding it. I absolutely love what I get to do! However, it has been a long road, with many ups and downs, to get here.

In 2015, I started to experiment with making my own home products with more natural ingredients. At first, I gave them out to family and friends as gifts. Then, as more people started loving them, my little hobby started to grow into a business. That’s when my husband built me a Murphy desk that folded down from the wall to work from!

Back then, I worked my corporate job at a fortune 500 company, commuted 3 hours round trip, and ran my business during work breaks and nap times. It was wild and stressful, but I absolutely loved it. By the end of my first year in business, I had shipped to all 50 states, as well as Brazil, and Canada.

Finally, after a couple years I decided to take the leap and go full time with Clean Haven Naturals. We turned our basement into my workshop and I spent everyday there creating and sending packages all over the country. The business KEPT growing and, at a certain point, it became obvious that we needed more space.

In 2023, we purchased an old gas station and worked hard to transform it into my workspace with a store. We initially thought we’d pop open one weekend per month, but we’ve now been open every weekend since! Now, we get to gather people together both in the store and through our seasonal markets, featuring all kinds of special local vendors. The store also lets me fulfill another dream: supporting other amazing small businesses in the area by sharing their products in our space!

Clean Haven Naturals is more than just a place to buy candles. It’s an experience for everyone who believes that home is an incredibly special place. If that is you - welcome! I am so happy you are here.

Wishing you the best,
