Inspired by Relationships
With a PhD in family studies and years of helping couples prepare for marriage and parenthood, I wanted to find a fun, creative way to share practical relationship tips with people across the country. I decided to merge relationship + happiness research with beautiful home decor you could see or use every day - little reminders to help keep us grounded in the good stuff.

Handmade. With love.
Grounded in Good is a woman-owned small business, and every item in the shop is handmade (with love) in Texas! We take pride in sourcing high-quality ingredients like 100% natural soy wax, phthalate-free fragrances, cotton wicks (lead and zinc free), and organic cotton towels, so you can feel good about the products you bring into your home.

Purchase with a Purpose
We are excited to donate a portion of the shop's profits to Children International, a charity we've been involved with since 2010 (our family has the privilege of sponsoring these 5 great kiddos!). Purchase with a purpose knowing anything you buy here will help support, encourage, and empower families in poverty around the world.
Testimonials
Lovely from start to finish! My order arrived right away and was beautifully packaged. I love that Kara includes a story along with her product. High quality and will order again. I bought one for myself and two for Mothers' Day gifts! Thank you!

Absurdly fast shipping, amazing communication from the seller, and a gorgeous product with that personal touch. I'm gifting this to a friend who is eloping far away from me, and I know she'll love this so much as part of her celebration. Thank you for making it extra special!

"It shipped and arrived incredibly fast! The Harvest candle smelled wonderful- buttery and creamy, maple, pumpkin, pecan. The quality of the packaging, candle, scent- all of it- is so well done. I love the encouragement built into the messaging. Smells as good as (actually, smells better than) a fancy store-bought candle, and feels more intentional and personal. Love it! Great item for gifts!"

You guys, these are the BEST candles I have ever used!! Amazing scents that really permeate in large spaces! Was never a huge candle fan, until now! Each candle is hand poured and great quality!

This candle smells absolutely delicious! High quality product, customer service was excellent and timely, and the packaging was very secure (and cute) as it made its way to me across the country. Couldn’t be more pleased and will be buying more of these candles.

I'm on my second order of various candles again...They are the most amazing candles ever. These holiday scents are just addicting and I love how they burn slowly and evenly and last for hours and hours. And the quality and packaging is superb in every way. I hope you never stop making these!
