Join Our Clean Candle Campaign

Sign-up to join our Clean Candle Campaign. Many candlemakers are using petroleum based parafim wax in making candles. This wax emits black soot as it burns, and recent studies have linked the continued use of candles that use this type of wax to cancer.

We use natural palm wax, which not only has a very unique appearance but it burns clean as well.

By signing up for our campaign you will receive be kept up to date on sales, new products, contests, and you receive a 10% discount on all purchases through our shop, www.nataliescandle.etsy.com.

Sign up today and join the campaign.

Candle Burning Tips

The holiday season is in full swing and candles are a popular addition to the holiday decor. To get the most from your candle it is suggested that you keep the candle wick trimmed to about 1/4", and burn your candle until it melts all the way around the edge of the container, or if a pillar around the edge of the pillar. This will prevent the candle from burning unevenly, and tunneling (burning a hole through the middle of the candle).

It is also very important that candles burn in/on a proper container or plate. Never burn pillar or votive candles on your table or counter without placing them in a container or plate first. Always keep burning candles away from children, pets, and flammable items, and be sure that you are able to keep an eye on your candle. Never leave a candle burning unattended, not even to drive down the block to the store to pick up a much needed ingredient for that holiday favorite.

New Jars and Fragrances

Our new line of jars and fragrances are now available at our Etsy shop, http://www.nataliescandleshop.etsy.com/. These jars are cylinder in shape which will help the candle burn evenly all the way to the end. We also are using larger jars four inches in diameter to allow for easy lighting of the candle, and double wicks.

We have tested these new jars and are very happy with the appearance of the wax, how evenly they burn, and how clean they burn.

If you still need that special gift or are still working on your holiday decor place your order today.
