Introducing
The Experience

The Experience is an ever expanding line of custom created and carefully designed products that embrace simple, all-natural ingredients for a life of less preservatives and toxicity.  Shannon and her team were inspired by the candles that began this endeavor,  to continue developing simple yet highly effective home care and self care products.  Perfect for gifting or indulging in a personal treat. Our box Experience offers curated sets that allow you to experience multiple scents at once. Each box tells a story, blending different candles and related products to create a layered, immersive sensory journey. From travel-inspired scents to home-focused experiences, our products bring you more than just fragrance—they invite you to relive special memories and create new ones.

We believe that every moment in life is an opportunity to create something meaningful. Our products are thoughtfully crafted not just to evoke emotions but to improve your living environment. Each candle is designed with your well-being in mind, using pure, additive-free essential oils and environmentally conscious materials. The Experience is more than just a candle company; we’re here to enhance your life and home with Experiences that are both safe and soulful.

Scotland Experience

Inspired by founder Shannon Perry Taylor’s transformative travels to Scotland, this collection captures the serenity and natural beauty of a true rest retreat. From the lush, green landscapes to the refreshing Highland air, each candle brings a touch of Scotland into your home, evoking a sense of peace and renewal.

Our Home Experience

Born from a desire to offer products that go beyond surface-level fragrance, the Our Home Experience collection features products made with pure, holistic ingredients. The candles are designed to help purify the air while using calming scents that soothe the soul. Inspired by Shannon’s journey of making her home a sanctuary, this collection brings comfort and cleanliness together.

The Story of Barrel & Board

In 2013, Shannon Taylor expanded her interior design company to create a store called Barrel & Board.  While owning a store had long been a dream of Shannon’s the toll of managing life and the endless demands of a brick and mortar store became too much.  A few years later, the store was closed, but Shannon kept the interior design portion alive as Barrel & Board Design.  Now, many years later, Shannon has found a way to bring back her beloved store through the online experience.  Naturally, she kept the original name, as it seems fitting.  Through this online marketplace Shannon brings you tried and true items that she can’t live without.  As the marketplace and styles shift, so will Barrel & Board’s products.  If you see something you love, don’t wait!  It may not be there for long.

The Story of  The Experience

While Shannon’s summer trip to Scotland in 2024 solidified the direction, creating a product for her client’s has been on her radar for the past few years.  She has always wanted to create product that was unique.  The Experience pairs our custom essential oil candles with other small vendors that when combined evoke similar emotional journeys as those experienced by Shannon and her travel companions.
