2.5 million candles sold. Countless moments made brighter.
Founded in 2014 by Pittsburgh-native Melissa Horvath, Sweet Water Decor began in a basement with a love for candles, coffee, and meaningful design. Today, we’re a growing team of 40+ dedicated to quality, collaboration, and care.
From being named one of Amazon’s Women-Owned Businesses to Watch to celebrating our 2.5 millionth candle sold, every milestone reflects the community that made it possible. (And we’re just getting started.)
