Got Wood? ~ Beeswax Melts

About Wood + Honey Beeswax Candles -

• Each candle is hand poured and handcrafted from start to finish. 
• ​Made from 100% pure beeswax that has been filtered without harsh chemicals or bleaches. 
• Our beeswax is sustainably sourced from a 4th generation beekeeper family who is passionate about bee health and preservation. 
• Our 100% pure beeswax is free from chemicals, additives, and impurities to create the most amazing base for our candles.
• Because beeswax is such a hard wax and typically struggles to burn well in vessels, we blend our pure beeswax, with a smidge of beeswax cocoa cream - a completely toxin-free, paraben-free, phthalate-free, gluten-free wax, that allows the 100% pure beeswax to soften just enough, to burn beautifully in our vessels and avoid tunneling.
• Wood wicks come from untreated natural wood with lead free bases. 
• All of our candles are scented with toxin-free, paraben-free, phthalate-free, gluten-free, skin-safe, and cruelty-free (leaping bunny compliant) fragrance oils. 
• Free from all the ingredients found on California Prop 65 list while also avoiding 5 main hazard groups to include: Carcinogens, mutagens, reproductive toxins, organ toxins and acute toxins.

We are proud to offer candles that are non-toxic and free from all of the above mentioned “nasties” that we want to avoid.  Nothing but the cleanest burn for you and yours.

• 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.
