caring for your artisan, eco-friendly candle.

• Soy wax has memory. Your first burn is the most important.
• For your first burn, keep your candle lit for 2-3 hours. Allow the top to fully melt until the wax pool touches the edges. This is crucial to maximize the life of your candle and to avoid tunneling during your next burn.
• ALWAYS trim the wick to ¼” before each light to ensure longevity and minimal soot.
• Do NOT burn your candle for more than 3-4 hours at a time.
• Do NOT light the candle when there is just ½” – ¼” of wax left. At that point, you can use a candle warmer to enjoy the rest of your candle.
• ALWAYS keep candles within sight and never burn around items that can catch fire.
• Keep away from children and pets at all times.

safety first.

Please read the warning label at the bottom of your candle before lighting it. We also include a safety and care instructions card with every order. Keep it handy and reference it frequently. We want you to be safe!

we want you to know this.

When your candle solidifies after burning, you might notice small holes or crystallization. Do not worry. This is how all-natural soy wax candles sometimes behave and confirms that you are burning a high-quality candle in your home. When you re-light your candle, soy wax will melt and perform normally.

I am a book translator and editor by trade. You can say that being detail-oriented is in my DNA! I handcraft each artisan candle with the utmost care and love. But, sometimes, if you look with “editor’s eyes,” you may notice imperfections. For example: wet spots (when the wax is not adhering 100% to the glass), slightly off-centered label, some wax discoloration, etc. Please rest assured that none of these affect the quality of your candle.

we are grateful for you.
