Light it and disappear into the story completely.

Candle Use & Safety

A well loved candle deserves a little attention. These are the things worth knowing before you light the first match.

The First Burn This one matters most. Aim to burn your candle long enough to develop a good melt pool across the top — usually 2-3 hours. This helps prevent tunneling where the center burns down and the edges never catch up.

A note about coconut apricot wax — it's unique. The melt pool may not reach the very edges of the jar on the first burn and that's completely normal. It settles and evens out over several burns. What matters is that you give it enough time on that first burn to get started — don't cut it short.

Trim the Wick Before every burn trim your wick to ¼ inch. A trimmed wick means a steady, clean flame and a longer lasting candle. If the wick starts to mushroom it's burned too long — extinguish it, let it cool, and trim before relighting.

Burn Time Never burn longer than 4 hours at a time. Let the candle cool completely before relighting. Multiple shorter burns are better than one long one.

A Few More Things Keep the flame away from drafts. Place on a heat resistant surface. Keep the wax pool free of debris. Never burn when ½ inch of wax remains at the bottom. If burning multiple candles keep them at least 3 inches apart. Keep out of reach of children and pets. Never leave a burning candle unattended.

Storage Store in a cool dry place away from direct sunlight. Heat and light affect both the wax and the fragrance.

Shipping Information

Processing & Ship Days Orders ship every Monday. This ensures your candles aren't sitting on a delivery truck over a weekend — we'd rather take a little extra time than have your order arrive anything less than perfect. Please allow 2-5 business days for processing before your order ships. During the holiday season processing may take a little longer.

Summer Shipping Protection During warmer months we offer an optional Summer Shipping Protection add on — thermal bubble wrap and an ice pack to protect your candle during transit. If you decline this option we cannot be responsible for any melting or warping that occurs during shipping in warm weather. Add it to your cart at checkout.
