Paia 1995
Long Before Boho Bungalow...
Long before there was a Boho Bungalow in Paia, I was a teenager here, chasing waterfalls and waves, working in the cafés and restaurants up and down the Hana Highway and Baldwin Ave. Charley's. Milagro's. A few places that don't exist anymore.
I lived in Paia from 1995 to 1999, back when there was no internet, no email, no cell phones. Just the waves, the highway, and whatever shift you were working that night. A simpler time, and one I never stopped thinking about.
Full Circle
Back where it started
I came back to Maui to open Boho Bungalow Paia, this time with Katherine, who had managed our mainland stores before becoming co-owner at our Paia location.
Opening a store in the same town where I worked as a teenager is the kind of full circle moment you can't really plan for. It just happened to be true.

Our newest store, and a long circle story. A few streets from where Faith first landed on Maui in 1995. Home of the Fragrance Lab, where you build your own perfume from 45 Hawaii grown notes.
02
Occidental

The original. The store that started it all, and the reason we're called Boho Bungalow in the first place. Boho comes from the Bohemian Highway, the winding road through the redwoods this shop still sits on.
03
Petaluma
On Kentucky Street in downtown Petaluma
143 Kentucky Street, Petaluma, CA 94952
Est. 2019
Our largest store and flagship. The candle making classes and candle bar live here, and most days you'll find Faith somewhere between the front door and the back studio.
How We Make It
Made by hand, in the store you're standing in
In each shop, you'll find home decor, gifts, jewelry, and our in-house line of hand-poured soy candles and home fragrance, Bohemian Botanicals.
Here's the part we're proud of. Every Bohemian Botanicals candle, room spray, body lotion, reed diffuser, and perfume is made in the store that sells it. The candles in our Paia store are poured on Maui. The candles in Petaluma are poured in Petaluma. The candles in Occidental are poured in Occidental. Same care, made by hand, in small batches, in the town you're standing in.
Most candle brands ship from a warehouse. We don't. When you light a Bohemian Botanicals candle from our Paia store, it was made here. That hyper local thing matters to us. It's why we make our own line in the first place.
