Elegant Candle Shop Website

I’m launching an online store to sell candles and soaps and I need a small, streamlined site that lets customers browse, add items to a cart, and pay in a single, friction-free flow. The look and feel should be elegant and sophisticated—think clean typography, ample white space, muted tones, and subtle motion rather than loud graphics.

Core pages will include a featurehome page, a product catalogue with filter or search, individual product detail pages, a fully functional cart, and a secure checkout. I’d like the checkout to handle credit/debit cards and stripe out of the box. The site must be responsive so shoppers on phones can complete a purchase just as easily as those on desktop.

For day-to-day management I’ll need an admin area where I can add new candle or soap variants, update prices, track inventory, and see basic sales reports. A simple contact form and GDPR-friendly cookie notice round out the essentials.

Deliverables
• Responsive website built on a platform you’re comfortable maintaining (custom PHP/Laravel, Shopify, WooCommerce, or similar are all fine as long as they support my needs)
• Elegant, sophisticated theme with branding colours I supply
• Product catalogue, cart, and secure checkout fully tested end-to-end
• Admin dashboard for inventory, pricing, and order tracking
• Basic on-page SEO setup and speed optimisation

I’ll provide product photos, copy, and branding assets; you take care of the build, polish, and launch. If this brief matches your skill set, I’m ready to get started right away and can sign off on milestones as each section goes live.
