Hey Charlotte, we're so sorry you were dissatisfied with your purchase. We would have happily offered a full refund if you had reached out. The item description lists exact dimensions of the product, and reiterates the size of the candle right underneath the measurement. With over 15 years of candlemaking experience, many of my product ideas (including this one) are original ideas, where you cannot purchase from anywhere else in the world. The price is for the uniqueness and originality as well as the handmade nature of this product. I hand make my own molds, source my supplies locally, personally hand make each and every one of my products and design the packaging myself. How much would you charge for making this in your home?
