Vintage Books - Scented, Wooden Wick Coconut Soy Candle

Vintage Books scented, Wooden Wick Soy Candle
The mysterious and cozy scent of old vintage books, libraries and dusty shelves full of leather bound wonders.

Top Note: Musty Paper, Papyrus
Middle Note: Oak, Aged Mahogany Woods
Bottom Note; Worn Leather, Lignin

This candle is curious and inviting when you first take the lid off and sniff it, you get the top note of Leather and musty pages. Once melting, the smells of old texts, library tables and lignin in the fragile paper come to life to invoke the happiest of memories.

This scent literally (see what I did there) took me years to develop and has the notoriety of being my most difficult to create, it is also our highest rated and best selling selection throughout the year. It is a very complex scent that changes and develops as the candle burns. When it begins you get a string note of worn leather, earthiness from the scent of old wood shelves and floor boards, musty notes that almost smell like fresh soil. The bottom note is a very faint smell of Lignin. Lignin, which is present in all wood-based paper, is closely related to vanillin. As it breaks down, the lignin grants old books that faint vanilla scent (International League for Antiquarian Booksellers).

We strive to create candles that are pet friendly as we share our little piece of the Earth with three adorable French Bulldogs (known for their sensitive respiratory systems).

Always consult your veterinarian to be certain that candles can be used in the same space with your familiar and exercise caution with open flames around them.


----CANDLE BURNING INSTRUCTIONS----

The basics of lighting and enjoying your wooden wick candle are simple, but there are a few things to keep in mind:

✂It is IMPORTANT to trim a wooden wick to 1/8” – 3/16”, and no longer. If the wick is too long, the wax will not pull up the wick, and the flame will dim or even extinguish.

⛔️NEVER remove wax from around the wick, it starves the wick and creates a tunnel.

If your wooden wick is extinguishing shortly after lighting it, trimming is the problem.

Simply give it a trim with wick trimmers, nail clippers or simply snap the char off with your fingers or tap if off with your lighter and remove the wick bits, light it at the wax level and you'll be crackling away!!

ALLERGIES AND SENSITIVITIES
Are scented candles and skincare products triggers for asthma or allergies?
Although millions of Americans regularly use scented products without any negative effects, it is always possible that a particular fragrance might trigger a negative reaction in a very small percentage of sensitive individuals. Individuals with known sensitivities to specific fragrances may want to avoid products of those scents. In addition, consumers should remember to burn all candles, whether scented or unscented, in a well-ventilated area and test skincare products in a small area before use.


**Cleaning out your candle jar to reuse it


Hot water can be used to easily and safely remove wax. Place the candle on a stable surface protected with a towel or newspaper.

Use a spoon to remove as much wax as you can. Pour very hot water into the container ( I use a regular fill from my coffee pod machine), leaving room at the top. The hot water will melt the wax and it will float to the top.

Let the water cool overnight and simply pop out the wax “cookie” that formed on top of the water.

Strain the water to get rid of any small wax bits (Don’t pour wax down the drain) !
I pour mine into a used coffee filter after I’ve brewed a pot and toss the filter, coffee and wax (remove wick tab) into my compost.

Wipe any remaining wax and clean with hot soap and water or pop it in the dishwasher.**
