Our Story…

Aura & Ash started as a quiet escape — a way to cope, to breathe, and to find light.

I live with multiple chronic health conditions that often stop me from doing the things I want to do. At times, it felt like life was on hold. But in the middle of all that, I found something small that gave me peace — creating.

It began as a hobby. I started making lamps from real tree branches — each one shaped by nature, each one completely unique. It was calming, creative, and slowly, it gave me purpose again.

This is still a small weekend project, because of my health. But every piece I make is honest, natural, and made with care. Aura & Ash means a lot to me — it’s a little light I can offer to others, made from the moments when I thought I had none left.

The name Aura & Ash came from that contrast. “Aura” represents light, energy, and the feeling we carry — even when we’re struggling. “Ash” reminds me of the burnout, the illness, the tough times… but also the strength that comes after. From ashes, something beautiful can grow.
