Frequently Asked Questions

100% soy wax, lead-free cotton wicks, and phthalate-free fragrance oils. No paraffin and no synthetic dyes. Every candle is hand-poured in small batches in Kuna, Idaho, just outside Boise. See our ingredients for the full breakdown.

Our 10oz candle burns about 95 hours. Our 16oz candle has 3 wicks for a bigger scent throw and burns about 55 hours. Burn time varies with room size, airflow, and candle care.

Our ingredients are chosen with kids and pets in mind: soy wax, cotton wicks, and phthalate-free fragrance. The main risk with any candle is the flame and hot wax, so always keep burning candles out of reach and never leave them unattended.

About 12 to 18 months, depending on room size and airflow. Flip the reeds to refresh the scent, and pick up replacement reeds in our Accessories collection.

Our wax melts use the same soy wax and phthalate-free fragrance as our candles, with no dyes. They are wickless and flame-free, and work in any standard wax warmer.

Mist into the air to freshen a room in seconds. Our room sprays are made for the air only, so please avoid spraying directly on fabric, furniture, or skin.

Trim the wick to 1/4 inch before every burn. On the first burn, let the wax melt all the way to the edges (about 2 to 3 hours) to prevent tunneling. Burn no more than 4 hours at a time, and stop when 1/2 inch of wax remains.

Follow the care tips above, keep your candle away from drafts and fans while burning, and store it with the lid on in a cool, dry place.
