Frequently asked questions

Find everything you need to know about burning your candles safely, our natural ingredients, and our delivery options.

How can I prevent uneven burning and flickering?

Keep your candles away from drafts, open windows, ceiling fans, or AC vents. Air currents can cause uneven wax pools, rapid burning, flickering, and excess smoke.

How long should I burn my candle at one time?

Never burn your candle for more than 4 hours at a time. Burning for extended periods can cause the container to overheat and may affect scent performance.

What kind of wax do you use?

We proudly craft all our candles using natural soybean wax, which burns cleaner, cooler, and longer than conventional paraffin wax.

What gives your candles their fragrance?

We scent our candles with pure essential oils to create a pleasant, clean aromatic experience throughout your space without harsh synthetic additives.

What are your shipping rates and policies?

We ship our products securely with a standard shipping fee calculated at checkout based on your destination.

Is local pickup available?

Yes! If you are local to our Kentucky workshop area, local pickup is available at checkout so you can pick up your candles conveniently.
