5 out of 5 starsI greatly enjoyed this candle; it’s nice and woodsy without being heavy. The scent fills up a bedroom nicely. I would definitely get this one again.

5 out of 5 starsI haven’t gotten the chance to see it in action, as it’s a Christmas gift for one of my friends who I introduced to Sherlock! They fell in love with it and I’m sure they’ll love this candle as well!! The product also came faster than I’d thought!

Frequently asked questions
411 on Soy Wax, Tunneling, and Wick Care
Essentially, soy wax is a vegetable wax made from the oil of soybeans. Since this is a natural wax, it is likely that there will be frosting (white color) on candles. This is a NATURAL process and shows that it is true soy wax. It in no way affects the fragrance or burn. Soy candles burn 30% to 50% longer than paraffin wax candles and provide for a much cleaner burn. It's also less likely to trigger allergies than other waxes.
To prevent tunneling on your candles, make sure you burn it until the whole top of the candle melts. This will take about an hour. If you have candles that have tunneled, it can be an easy fix. Feel free to send me a message about it and I'll walk you through it!
Make sure your wick is no longer than 1/4" long!
Scents
Our scents are our interpretation of the fandoms/characters listed. We use the recommended amount of fragrance oil listed by the supplier.
These 4 oz. candles are designed to scent a small room. If you're having a hard time smelling the candle after an hour, try moving it to a smaller room. You can always buy more candles if that doesn't help! ;)
If it's hot outside...
Please pay attention to your tracking number and updates. Do not let it sit outside as the heat will likely cause the wax to melt. We would hate for your order to get ruined or left out in the heat for too long!
About the Wax & Soap
• About the soy wax:
→ American grown soybeans
→ Burns longer & cleaner than paraffin
→ Eco-friendly
→ Renewable & Sustainable
→ Carbon neutral ☼
• About the soap:
→ 100% vegetable based
→ Foams great
→ Neutral odor (I add enough fragrance to enjoy but not overpower)
→ Moisturizing and smooth texture
→ Exfoliates (added lavender helps) & nourishes
→ High in vitamins (especially vitamin E) and minerals
With these hands ♥
I hand pour each candle in small batches. This means your candle will be UNIQUE and SPECIAL as the method could be slightly different each time! The soy creates a process called "frosting" which just means it has white blush marks from your adoring eyes.
Lost/Stolen Packages
Please make sure your address on Etsy or PayPal is updated as that is the address we will ship to. Unfortunately, once we deliver to the USPS, it is essentially and literally out of our hands. If your order shows that it has been delivered, then you need to make a claim with the USPS. Go to your local USPS (or call them) and give them your tracking number so you can get more information.
FloatingStarlights is not responsible for lost or stolen items. If it is marked "delivered", we cannot file a claim as USPS deems their responsibility completed at that point. We are not responsible for errors made by the postal service.
Returns + Customs/Fees + Return to Sender
Sorry, we do not accept returns.
International orders (outside of the US) may have other fees or tariffs at customs, depending on the country it is being sent to. The buyer is responsible for all fees and costs, if any.
If for any reason your order is returned to me (most often because of insufficient or incorrect address), I will hold it for you for 30 days after I send an Etsy message letting you know I've received your order back. After 180 days, I cannot send a refund to you via Etsy's policies so you'll need to pay for resend shipping or I will offer you a credit in my shop for a new item.
Damaged Candles
If something sad happens, namely your candle(s) being damaged, we will provide a refund/replacement. Please send along photos to me via message as soon as you receive your order so we can discuss it.
Note that if more than 72 hours have past before contacting me about your damaged candle, I will no longer provide a refund or replacement. Given the circumstances of so many scammers and other untrustworthy sources, this makes it difficult for me to send out these refunds/replacements. Thank you for understanding!
