Candle Questions
What does hand-dipped mean?
Hand-dipping builds color through repeated dips in wax. Each layer contributes to the candle’s finished look, so the result has the character of a hands-on process rather than a printed or painted pattern.
Are hand-dipped candles all exactly alike?
Small differences can appear from candle to candle because each one is made by hand. Those variations are part of the process and give each piece its own color pattern and personality.
How should I care for my candle?
Trim the wick before lighting, set the candle on a stable, heat-resistant surface, and keep it away from drafts and flammable items. Follow any care instructions provided with your candle.
Can I give these candles as gifts?
Hand-dipped candles make colorful gifts for birthdays, host gatherings, holidays, and other occasions. Consider the recipient’s home style and preferred colors when choosing a candle.
