Rescued Jar Candles and Wax Melts
When possible I like to name my candles and wax melts after a place that corresponds to the fragrance itself to bring attention to some of the wonderful places in this world. Seasonal candles I sometimes name after what the scent brings to mind if there is not a specific place or region for these seasonal fragrances.
100% Soy Wax Candles made with rescued jars
Wax Melts are are a soy blend in a clamshell and are available in all of the same scents as candles.
I make these candles in jars saved from old candles, jelly, honey, and yogurt, saving glass from the landfill!
If you return your jars after you finish burning your candles you will receive $1 off the purchase of a new candle for each jar (with lid if applicable) that you return. Please do not wash the jars before returning. I like to see how well they have burned.
For best results, make sure to burn your candles until the melt pool reaches the outer edges of the candle. Candles tend to have a memory and will only burn each time at a diameter equivalent to the last burn. This will prevent tunneling of your candle. Also make sure to trim your wicks to about 1/4" before each burn.
These candles are made with 100% soy wax and candle fragrance, not essential oils. Prices will vary according to volume content of container and containers will vary depending on availability
