Candles & Product Care

What are your candles made from? +

Our candles are poured in small batches using a high-quality wax blend, premium fragrance oils, and thoughtfully selected wicks. Each scent is tested for a clean, even burn and a beautiful fragrance experience in your space.

How long will my candle burn? +

Burn time varies by vessel size and how it’s cared for. As a general guide, smaller candles are perfect for shorter burns and smaller spaces, while larger vessels offer longer total burn times. For the best experience, always follow our candle care tips.

How do I care for my candle? +

For an even, long-lasting burn:

  • Trim the wick to about 1/4" before each burn.
  • Allow the melt pool to reach the edges of the jar on the first burn to help prevent tunneling.
  • Burn in 2–4 hour sessions and never more than 4 hours at a time.
  • Keep candles away from drafts, pets, children, and flammable materials.
  • Stop burning when about 1/2" of wax remains at the bottom.

My candle looks frosted or has small imperfections. Is that normal? +

Slight variations such as frosting, small air bubbles, or minor surface changes are common in handcrafted candles and do not affect performance or safety. We see these as part of the charm of small-batch production.

How strong are your scents? +

Our fragrance load is carefully balanced to create a noticeable, inviting scent without being overwhelming. Keep in mind that room size, airflow, and your own scent sensitivity all play a role. If you prefer softer or stronger scents, you’ll quickly learn which of our fragrances fit your style.


Wholesale, Gifts & Custom Orders

Do you offer wholesale? +

Yes, we love partnering with boutiques, gift shops, and curated retailers. To learn more about becoming a stockist, please visit our Wholesale Information page or submit a wholesale inquiry through our Contact page.

Can you create custom candles for events or branding? +

We offer custom options for weddings, corporate gifting, brand collaborations, and special events. Custom projects may include tailored scent profiles and labeling, depending on your needs and timeline. Reach out through our Contact page with your event date, quantity, and vision, and we’ll follow up with details.

Can I send a candle as a gift? +

Absolutely. Candles make beautiful, thoughtful gifts. You can enter the recipient’s shipping address at checkout, and if gift notes or special options are available, you’ll see them on the product or cart page. We never include pricing inside the box.
