Our candles are hand-poured in small batches to so we can ensure the best quality for our candles. They are are made with 100% soy wax with a dash of coconut, specially formulated for smooth textures and a wonderful scent throw.

Handmade Curiosities only uses fragrance oils that are:

• Phthalate free
• Paraben free
• Carcinogen free
• and free of Reproductive, Organ, and Acute Toxins

So the great news is our candles are super safe for the office or home .

All-Natural plant based waxes, toxin free fragrance oils and a cotton wick… These ingredients all combine to create a wonderful and natural candle, which we then pour into some super cool or uniquely creepy vessels. We feel our candles cannot be matched!

Candle Care

Did you know that there are some things you can do to make sure you get the best results out of your candle? Before we started this candle making journey we sure didn’t know, but now that we do we’re sharing this info with you!

1. Trim Your Wick
   Before you light your candle make sure the wick is only about 1/4 inch long. This will help you get a steady flame and less sooting. You can use a wick trimmer, nail clippers, or scissors to trim your wicks.
   
2. First Burn: keep it going until you get a full melt pool
   This will help ensure you get the maximum use out of your candle. Extinquishing it too early for the first burn means that future burns will have a harder time reaching the edges of the candle. The length of time required will depend on the diameter of your candles. Handmade Curiosities’ candles will be approximately 3-4 hours.
   
3. Keep away from Children and Pets
   Make sure your kids and fur babies don’t hurt themselves or cause any damage by keeping your candles out of reach of tiny hands and paws.
   
4. Don’t forget you’ve got it lit!
   Ideally your candle should only be lit for a maximum of 4 hours. Never leave your candles burning unattended.
   
5. Don’t place candle on, or near, flammable materials
   Wood or fabric surfaces, curtains, plants, etc do not make happy candle friends.
   
6. Avoid burning near drafts, or in air-tight spaces
   This will help ensure even burning.
   
7. Don’t burn it all the way down
   Stop the burn before all the wax is gone.
