Definitely one of my favorite Talking Heads songs for sure, but more importantly a favorite destination for my kiddos and me. The St. Lawrence River, particularly at Alexandria Bay, New York is not only where my family lives but where we go to find sweet peace and calm and a real sense of healing and rejuvenation. "The River" is where earth and water collide and the combination of the two is breathtakingly magical. It's also where I fell in love with SUP yoga.

Recommended Burning Instructions

  • Beeswax is a very hard wax and burns very hot and slow. These candles should last you for a while. 
  • Wood wick is cut to appropriate height when new.  Make sure the wick is kept to about a 1/4" before lighting.  Too high and the flame can get smokey and a little wild, too low and it may suffocate in the pool of wax.  
  • Before relighting your candle each time, be sure to break off some of the previously burnt wick. This will help prevent smoking and assist in ideal flame height.
  • It is not uncommon to hear a soft crackling sound while burning, which is why wood wicks are so cool.
  • Recommended burn time of at least 2 to 3 hours to avoid tunneling. 
  • Tunneling may occur initially until a big enough wax pool is made, and the glass begins to warm. 
  • Cracking in the wax near the wick is common due to the fast cooling time and hard nature of beeswax. 
  • Be patient when lighting. DO NOT extinguish with water. 
  • DO NOT replace lid until candle has cooled completely.
  • DO NOT BURN FOR MORE THAN 4 HOURS AT A TIME.
  • Discontinue use if glass is broken or cracked.
  • DO NOT BURN when candle has a 1/2" of wax or less.
