HANDMADE CANDLE LAVENDER

The earthy floral scent of lavender promotes a sense of calm and is commonly used in aromatherapy to reduce stress.

Our candles are mixed and poured by hand in small batches in our Lovettsville, Virginia workshop using 100% US sourced natural beeswax, soy wax, premium essential and fragrance oils, and a natural hemp wick.

Due to their handmade nature, using all-natural wicks and waxes instead of petroleum products, these candles can be slower burning than what you may have used in the past. The slower burning allows for a longer lasting product, with better scent-throw, but there is a side effect that on the initial burns it is important to let them burn for 2 hours or more to allow a melt-pool to form across the entire diameter of the candle. This sets you up for success, as the candle forms a 'memory' of this initial burn, and will cooperate much better throughout its life, though it will always be best to allow a melt pool to form across the entire candle. As the candle continues to burn down, the container acts as an insulator, and promotes more even melting as the wax gets lower in the container.
