FAQ

1)What types of candles do you offer? All of my candles are hand poured in small batches using 100% soy wax with a touch of coconut oil. I use a cotton wick, super clean oils free of toxins, carcinogens and harmful chemicals and all my glass is 100% recycled glass.

 

2) Are your candles made from natural or synthetic materials? I use all-natural soy wax, a cotton wick, a fragrance / essential oil blend that is free of toxins, carcinogens or any harmful chemicals and all glass is 100% recycled.

 

3) Do you carry any scented candles, and what scents are available? I have around 50 different scents in 3 categories: Clean + Airy + Spa, Fruity + Floral and Earthy + Woody. They have a reputation for being strong but not overwhelming which comes from the cleanliness of all the ingredients, however, the scent throws will vary in strength as they are dependent on the nature of the oil.

 

4) I love the way you curly your wick, do you need to cut it? YES! You absolutely need to CUT THE CURL before you light your candle. Your wick should always be trimmed to 1/4 inch before you light your candle and throughout the life of it.  Read more about candle care + safety tips

 

5) How long do your candles last? Soy wax is cool so it burns slow and with the addition of coconut oil it extends that burn time even further to 80-90 hours for all of our 10oz candles if burned properly.

 

6) What happens if I don't cut the curl? If you don't cut the curl to 1/4 inch the flame will be too high. Not only is that a safety issue, but the heat will also be too hot and burn off the fragrance, therefore will not have any scent throw and will ruin the candle. If you cut your wick too low, it won't burn hot enough to create a full melt pool to generate enough heat for the scent throw.

 

7) Do you offer any eco-friendly or sustainable candles? YES! All of our ingredients are natural, and the glass candles are housed in 100% recycled glass that can be reused for many things once the candle is finished: Drinkware, vase, for cotton balls or q tips, a pen / pencil holder, a succulent planter, the list goes on.

 

8) Do you offer any candles with essential oils? I use a fragrance / essential oil blend, I do not have any with straight essential oils.

 

9) Do you offer custom candle scents or colors?  My custom blended collections are Boho + Glow, Birthday Candles: Zodiacs and In Loving Memory.  

 

10) Do you offer personalized candles for gifts or corporate events? Yes! We create personalized candles for personal events such as weddings, or a big celebration to corporate events such as client appreciation gift, closing gifts or scent branding, we do require a minimum order.  

 

11) Can I create my own candle scent combination for my business or a special occasion?  Yes! You can create your own signature scent by smelling all of our oils, picking a few of your favorites then mixing and matching using blotting strips until you find the blend that you love.  If you have a particular scent that you love, whether it's a candle, oil or perfume that you want to replicate and looking to order in bulk, we can make that happen to the exact scent you are looking for.  We use an offsite company for that, and we would need a small sample.
