4 out of 5 starsI love the candle and the scent. There were little extras in the package which was a nice surprise. Very fast shipping and very well packaged. The only thing is it’s quite small for the price and won’t last very long. Otherwise, very nice.

Frequently asked questions
Why Choose Soy?
Soy wax is a natural, renewable resource, and it's biodegradable. Soy wax is a vegetable oil that is derived from soy bean oil. It has a lower melting point than other wax choices, therefore burns slower and lasts longer - even lasting 35% to 50% longer than paraffin wax candles! When lit correctly, soy wax candles produce no smoke or soot, releasing NO petrochemicals when burned.
Choosing soy wax means choosing BETTER for you, BETTER for your family and BETTER for the planet.
Switching to cleaner-burning, healthier, natural soy wax candles is one way to improve the air inside your home.
Caring For Wood Wick Candles
Wooden Wick candles are NOT the same as cotton, regular wick candles.
They take time, understanding and patience.
BEFORE LIGHTING your wood wick candle, trim your wood wick to roughly 1/4 inch - some wicks maybe even a bit smaller!
Remove all burnt wood (charred and black edge) before EACH use.
Allow your candle to burn until the entire top layer of wax is melted - This reduces the odds of "tunneling" within your candle - This could take HOURS for a new candle.
IN THE EVENT OF TUNNELING; Blow out your candle and allow the wax to solidify, almost back to it's solid state. Carefully remove the top, unmelted, ring of wax and discard. Trim the wood wick to roughly 1/4 inch, ensure all burnt wood (charred edges) is gone, and re-light.
Caring For Your New Candle (ECO-WICK/COTTON WICK/REGULAR WICK) NON-WOODEN WICK
Trim your candle wick(s) to roughly 1/4 inch before lighting.
FOR YOUR VERY FIRST LIGHT - BEST CANDLE BURNING PRACTICES: Allow the candle to burn until the entire top layer of wax is melted before you extinguish, creating a melt pool the size of the candle - THIS COULD TAKE HOURS FOR A BRAND NEW CANDLE.
Keep your candle and wick dust and debri free.
Never leave candles unattended.
Do not burn candles for more than 4 hours at a time.
***NEVER LEAVE BURNING CANDLES UNATTENDED***
IN THE EVENT OF TUNNELING; Blow out your candle and allow the wax to solidify, almost back to it's solid state. Carefully remove the top, unmelted ring of wax and discard. Trim the wick to roughly 1/4 inch and re-light.
Cork Lid Candles
DO NOT USE CORK TO SNUFF OUT FLAMES.
What is a Glitter Top Candle?
Glitter Top candles are dusted with a little sparkle, right on top!
We use Plant Based, Biodegradable, Eco-Friendly glitter - It's NOT made from plastics like a lot of glitter out there.
It will not produce any checmicals or harmful "soot" into the air you breathe.
How Do You Scent Your Candles and Wax Melts?
We only use 100% natural, eco-friendly, additive free, essential oils and fragrance oils. We believe in sustainably harvested, pure extraction practices - So we only use what the Earth has provided, always!
How Do You Color Your Candles and Wax Melts?
We only use 100% natural, eco-friendly, additive free, liquid and powder dyes. We believe in sustainably harvested, pure extraction practices - So we only use what the Earth has provided, always!
Are Your Wax Melts Strong?
When melting; Wax Melts will provide a stronger aroma for 11-14 hours, depending on how many peices you melt at one time. Upon hours 15-19 the scent throw will mellow out.
SCENT THROW means the amount of aroma you can smell from the wax melt, and how far it travels.
For smaller areas, like bathrooms or hallways, we recommend using 1 peice of wax for a terrific scent throw.
Adjust the number of peices you melt at one time for the size of the room AND the size of your wax melter.
We try to keep in mind that everyone is different, being that sense of smell varries from person to person. What is "strong" to one person may very well be "mellow" to someone else.
We try to and hope to include everyone in our crafts :)
Will My Candle Tunnel?
Full Transparency: WE HOPE NOT, BUT MAYBE!
We have tested and tested and TESTED our candle jars, wicks, powder colors, liquid colors, and everything else used, to a phenomenal degree! We only sell candles our tests have proven to be made correctly with efficient burn time, correct wick/container ratio, and offer a full melt pool.
**WITH THAT SAID; Of course we cannot guarantee OR control what a flame is going to do**
BEST CANDLE BURNING PRACTICES: Allow the candle to burn until the entire top layer of wax is melted before you extinguish, creating a melt pool the size of the candle - THIS COULD TAKE HOURS FOR A BRAND NEW CANDLE.

***NEVER LEAVE BURNING CANDLES UNATTENDED***
Do Your Candles Have a Strong Fragrance?
YES AND NO! :)
SCENT THROW means the amount of aroma you can smell from the candle, and how far it travels.
Larger candles typically offer a larger scent throw and are great for larger areas, like livingrooms, kitchens and bedrooms.
Smaller candles are better at scenting smaller spaces, like bathrooms, hallways, or offices.
If we make a scent that is a bit duller than typical, we try to make a note in that listing description that that particular candle is on the mellow side.
We try to keep in mind that everyone is different, being that sense of smell varries from person to person. What is "strong" to one person may very well be "mellow" to someone else.
We try to and hope to include everyone in our crafts :)
