Zhonvieve Ellison is the founder of Eleven45 Candle Co., an Atlanta-based creative brand that merges handcrafted design, storytelling, and community-centered experiences. More than a candle company, Eleven45 uses refillable concrete vessels and intentional scent profiles as tools for connection, reflection, and shared moments.
The brand’s name, Eleven45, marks the exact time Zhonvieve’s daughter was born, grounding the business in legacy and purpose. What began as a creative outlet during the pandemic has evolved into a platform rooted in sustainability, education, and meaningful engagement. By prioritizing refillable designs, Zhonvieve challenges the disposable nature of the candle industry while emphasizing safety, longevity, and mindful consumption.
Beyond product creation, she hosts mobile candle-making events, corporate activations, and multi-week courses at community art centers—experiences designed to bring people together offline and spark creativity and conversation. Guided by her philosophy, Refill. Create. Gather., Zhonvieve is redefining lifestyle branding through intention, impact, and community.
