A Note from Alana, This Essential Life’s Owner & Maker
Hi friends,
I’m Alana and welcome to This Essential Life!!!
My studio is located in Chinook, Montana and this is where all products are handcrafted in small batches by me, maker and creator of all the things. I am a proponent of reuse and recycle of just about anything from wood to vintage jewelry to textiles, even paper whenever possible for my handcrafted decor. My candle line and personal care products use ingredients that are non-toxic, organic, natural, clean and safe for you and your family. What goes hand-in-hand with that mindset is using eco-friendly and reusable materials and packaging whenever possible. “Back to basics living” is my motto, and that extends to my shop as well.
If you came to shop or browse or you were sent by a friend, I want you to know how much I appreciate you stopping by. Thank you so very much!

When creating, she may use different types of papers, vintage jewelry, wood, florals, buttons, napkins or tissue, ribbons and fabrics… just about anything really!
