General Burning Directions:
Place candle on a fire proof surface and away from flammable items and remove the labels before lighting. Keep them out of reach of children and pets.
Cut wick to between 1/8 and 1/4 of an inch each time the candle is burned. Beeswax candles may take a bit longer to light for the very first time than other wax candles. To put out flame, dip the wick in the pool of wax quickly. This way, you avoid any unwanted smoke. Keep candles out of a draft otherwise you may experience dripping and smoking.
Never leave a candle burning unattended.
Closely follow specific burning directions for each type of candle above to ensure safety and proper burn times.
Each candle is made of 100% Pure Beeswax with a cotton wick.
Our Scent from Nature 6 inch and 10 inch taper candles
"We have chosen to fill our hives with honey and wax, thus furnishing mankind with the two noblest of things, which are sweetness and light." Jonathan Swift
HEALTH. Most candles are petroleum and meatpacking wastes that are toxic when burned, scented with poisonous synthetic oils, and marketed to "freshen" our precious air. The black soot is as harmful to our health as tobacco smoke. Aromatherapy candles also have health hazards.
Beeswax is extremely different. Honey bees make beeswax from the nectar of flowers so it is all natural, uniquely non-toxic, hypoallergenic and has a mild and sweet honey aroma. A perfectly renewable resource, beeswax is made by female worker bees (all worker bees are female). After they have engorged themselves with nectar and lay resting, flakes of beeswax are secreted from their abdomen. Yes, beeswax is a by-product. A by-product of the bees' honey making process! They mold this wax and shape it to fit perfectly over the tops of each little honey comb cell to cover either their honey or the Queen's eggs. Scent from Nature; 100% Pure Beeswax Candles are made from the fine layer of beeswax covering each honey cell but only after the bees have had their fill of honey!
Producing negative ions as it burns, beeswax is healthy and actually cleans our air of odors, pollens, smoke and other allergens and hazards. It leaves our air fresher just like a rain storm. They are the perfect candles for those with sensitivities to chemicals, scents or allergens. Studies have shown that burning beeswax candles:
Improves air quality
Improves sleep
Enhances the immune system
Provides relief from hay fever and allergies
Allows for less severe asthma attacks
Improves concentration
Allows for the balancing of hormones
Provides a natural detoxification
Provides a sense of well being
Beeswax is precious stuff!
VALUE. Beeswax burns brighter, hotter, cleaner and much longer than chemical and vegetable waxes. When properly handcrafted and burned, beeswax candles are smokeless and drip less. They may seem more expensive at first glance, however when measured by completeness of burn and overall burn time, beeswax candles are usually more cost effective to burn.
BEWARE: A candle may legally be labeled "beeswax" if it contains as little as 10% beeswax! If it doesn't say 100% or PURE on the label, then it most likely is not. Also, beware of colored beeswax candles and aromatherapy beeswax candles. Adding anything to a 100% pure beeswax candle can negate many of its natural benefits.
BEAUTY. There is a simple beauty to a 100% Pure Beeswax Candle - to touch and to smell. We are reminded of our connection to the natural world when presented with and when burning a thoughtfully handcrafted beeswax candle as they support health and sustainable practices. Choose health. Choose sweetness and light. Choose pure beeswax.
