SHIPPING RATES

Our shipping rates are determined by the USPS rate chosen at checkout. We are only shipping USPS Priority. This shipping option ensures that insurance and tracking are included.

For APO or FPO addresses, please expect a delay. This mail is delivered through a joint effort between USPS and the Military Post Service that requires packages to go through customs. Transit times depend on operational conditions as well as the unit of the addressee.

Please note that we are not responsible for packages that are lost, stolen or damaged during transit, but we will work with you to replace your items.

If you've provided the wrong ship to address, it's possible that you can submit a request to intercept a package via USPS.

We are not responsible for packages that are delivered to a wrong address due to an incorrect or incomplete shipping address provided by the customer.

We’ve taken great pride in making our candles using quality ingredients and materials. We’d like to stress the importance of burning your candles responsibly to ensure their safe use. Please follow these guidelines to keep your candles a peaceful and joyful part of your life.

  • Remove all packaging before lighting.
  • Place on a protected, heat-resistant, dry surface, away from anything that can catch fire, and out of reach of children and pets. Use holders designed for the particular candle style.
  • Keep wick(s) trimmed to the length stated on your candle’s bottom label.
  • If smoking occurs, check for drafts or high traffic areas, which may cause flame to flicker and smoke. Also, be sure that the wick is trimmed to the length stated on your candle’s bottom label. If it is longer, then extinguish, trim the wick, and relight.
  • Keep the wax pool free of wick trimmings, matches, or any combustible material.
  • Keep the wick centered.
  • Avoid burning candles in drafts.
  • Never leave burning candles unattended. Keep them within sight at all times.
  • Keep all matches and lighters out of the reach of children.
  • Teach everyone in the family the rules of safe candle use.
The candle wax and fragrance oils we use in our candles are sensitive to both temperature and light, so please be careful when storing candles for an extended period of time. If you store your candle, be sure it is in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight or intense light. Keeping it in a dark place like a cupboard or box will protect it from fading and discoloration.

Since our candles can be sensitive to extreme cold and heat, it’s best to store them between 50ºF and 85ºF. Be sure not to leave our candles in your car for an extended period of time (particularly on hot days) as they may melt or discolor. Extreme cold may cause cracking and separation. After long exposure to cold temperatures, allow the candle to return to room temperature for at least 2 hours before unboxing or burning it.
  • Please handle glass containers with care. Avoid glass-to-glass contact when removing or replacing the lid. Do not use if the jar is cracked, chipped, or scratched. Do not refill with wax.
  • Do not allow the flame to touch the side of the jar. The jar may become hot. Handle carefully.
  • If smoking occurs, check for drafts or high traffic areas, which may cause the flame to flicker and smoke. Also, be sure that the wick is trimmed to the length stated on your candle’s bottom label. If it is longer, then extinguish, trim the wick, and relight.
  • To minimize wax left on the sides of the jar, burn your candle for 4 hours at a time. It is normal for a small amount of wax to be left. The amount may vary by color, fragrance, and burning conditions.
  • Prevent potential heat damage to counters and surfaces by discontinuing use when 1/2" of wax remains at the bottom of the jar. Only burn in a suitable holder, or on a plate or other fire- and heat-resistant surface.
  • Extinguish your candle carefully and completely before placing a lid on top. We recommend the use of a candle snuffer.
