Product Detail
All Natural
- Individually Handmade Why Natural Soy Wax? Soy Wax is a 100% biodegradable vegetable based by-product, a healthy choice. Soy candles do not release harmful carcinogens. Soy Wax is an American grown product, therefore, helps the United
States economy and the American farmer. Soy
candles are water soluble for easy cleanup with warm, soapy, water. Soy Wax has excellent scent holding qualities and produces a beautiful scent throw both hot and cold.
Why Essential Oils? Essential Oils are made from raw plant material, consisting
of the flowers, leaves, wood, bark, roots, seeds, or peel. The oil is extracted by distillation, expression, or solvent extraction. Pure essential oils have a wide range of therapeutic
benefits and have been noted in history as being used for fragrance and medicinal purposes for thousands of years. It is a NATURAL fragrance.
What the Wick is Going on? Our candles are made using a flat, coreless, cotton,
wick that is braided with thin paper filaments interwoven for burn stability. The cotton wicks are All Natural and have been primed with vegetable wax to hold
its' rigidity. They produce minimized
"mushrooming"(which will occur with all natural wicks). Virtually soot free The
wicks used to make our candles are lead-free.
Why All White? Our candles are left in their natural soy wax color. There may be a slight color difference between candles of different
essential oils. This is because pure essential oils vary in color depending on the individual plant oil used to scent
the candle. The natural choice is to leave
synthetic made dyes behind.
Burning Instructions CAUTION: do not to trim the wick too short as it
will stop a full melting pool to occur. Thus, an uneven burn will result. (I have found lighting the wick at the length
it comes to you at is best). Do not trim
your wick while lit. If you notice a "mushroom head" forming, just clip the very top before lighting. Burn your candle at least one hour for every inch in diameter (approximately
3-4 hours). This will help to ensure a complete pool of wax on the surface and helps to ensure an even burn. Extinguish your candle with a Snuffer, this keeps your wick from
smoking after you put it out. Even all natural cotton wicks will smoke when blown out. Keep your candle away from drafts and direct sunlight. Burn your candle responsibly by keeping it away from children, pets, and flammable
materials. Never leave your burning candle
unattended.
