My storefront has moved HERE. Thanks for visiting!
Every year, when the cool breezes first appear in the fall, I dig through my supplies and pull out the blocks of beeswax, spools of cotton wicking, and all of my pots that I use when crafting the beeswax candles sold here. Throughout the cool months of fall, winter, and the early days of spring, you will often find me in our small, off-grid homestead kitchen dipping and wrapping candles by hand, fashioning only 10-15 pairs each afternoon with our wood-burning cookstove. The small quantities and simple methods ensure that each pair is of the best quality that I can provide - both in their performance and their simple beauty.
Beeswax candles burn very cleanly, producing little smoke and only dripping if bumped or blown on by small children. Unlike the more common candles made from paraffin wax, beeswax candles do not produce toxic fumes as they burn. As a by-product of the petroleum industry, paraffin candles produce many of the same toxic fumes that are found in auto exhaust when burning. Beeswax, a natural & sustainable fuel, produces a light honey smell when burning, burns longer and brighter than paraffin, and some even say that it actually cleans the air by releasing negative ions when burning.
Beeswax candles perform beautifully in many settings - on the casual family dinner table...during the elaborate Sabbath dinner...at the elegant mother-daughter tea...on the mantle...at the special wedding feast...and so many more places! We use them for all occasions to beautify the home and to make family meal time even more special!
