About

Nestled by the rugged coast of Nova Scotia, Kelp House is where the spirit of the ocean meets artisanal craft. Inspired by the swaying kelp forests, salt air, and rolling waves of Louisbourg and Cape Breton, Kelp House offers handcrafted goods that celebrate nature, simplicity, and sustainability.


Their collections include artisan-made home goods and bath & body products, with standout candle lines like the Anchored Collection and The Logbook Collection. Every item reflects a respect for the environment: from small-batch production and eco-friendly packaging to sourcing handmade offerings from local makers.


For visitors: browsing Kelp House is about more than purchasing—it’s a chance to take home a piece of Cape Breton’s coast, culture, and creative energy. Whether you’re seeking meaningful gifts, unique souvenirs, or simply something that brings the calm of the shore into your daily routine, Kelp House is a must-see stop for lovers of craft, nature, and authenticity.
