Kelp House (noun)

  • /kelp haus/


    1. A place where the coast comes alive in every handcrafted product.


    2. A home for local makers, sustainable goods, and the spirit of Cape Breton.


  • Kelp House     was born from the sea. Along our coastline, giant kelp sways with the tide — a living symbol of resilience, renewal, and the deep connection between ocean and shore. Kelp nurtures the life around it, just as our coastal community sustains us.

  • Our name is a reminder of where we come from: the salt air of Louisbourg, the rhythm of Cape Breton’s waves, and the beauty found in nature’s simplest forms. Like the kelp forests just offshore, we aim to create something that supports life, treads lightly on the earth, and brings a little of the ocean’s calm into your home.

Supporting Local Makers

When you shop with us, you’re supporting more than a business — you’re helping local artisans share their craft without needing a shop of their own. Every piece we carry is carefully chosen, either handmade here in Nova Scotia or sourced from Canadian makers who share our values. Your purchase keeps creativity close to home and helps strengthen the community we’re proud to be part of.

Bringing the Coast Home

Every product is inspired by our coastal surroundings — the rolling waves, salty sea air, and rugged beaches of Cape Breton. From our handcrafted soaps and bath bombs to our beard care and soaks, we pour the spirit of the shore into every creation. Small-batch, intentional, and full of character, our products bring a touch of the island’s calm, energy, and beauty into your everyday life.
