Conscious Candles By Earthen Offerings
Our candles are perfect for creating a cozy atmosphere for a special occasion, or just simply winding down after a long day.We offer a variety of thoughtfully crafted customized scents in artisan vessels to best fit your mood, preference & aesthetic.We take pride in using only the best ingredients, including pure soy wax, safe toxin free oils, and lead-free cotton wicks, to create a clean-burning candle that emits a rich, long-lasting fragrance.
Earthen Offerings candles are proudly handmade in a modest wooded cottage in Wexford Pennsylvania. Hand poured with one hundred percent soy from US grown & harvested soy beans, blended with premium fragrance oils, & finished off with lead free, braided cotton wicks for a cleaner & slower burn. All candles are toxic free, phthalate free, petroleum free, & cruelty free. Cured for at least two weeks before sending them off to you to ensure proper settlement of the wax, & a stronger fragrance throw to enjoy in your home. All scents are inspired by the beauty of nature & nostalgia.
One of my favorite things about creating candles is the powerful effect on evoking memories with scent. Memories from scents and smells tend to be stronger and more emotional. These memories tend to be from earlier in life, as opposed to adult memories & they’re often thought of less often than memories arising from sight, sound and touch. The smell of scented candles stimulates our limbic system, the part of the brain that is home to our memory and emotions. Hormones like serotonin and dopamine can be produced to help regulate mood.The simple act of igniting a candle is much more than you may imagine.
Trim That Wick: Before lighting, trim the wick to 1/4" using scissors or wick trimmer for a clean, safe burn and increased candle lifespan.
Let It Burn: Allow the wax to melt to the edges of the jar every burn to prevent tunneling - especially important on the first burn!
Safety First: Never leave a lit candle unattended, and don't burn for more than 4 hours at a time. To protect the surface below from heat, place your candle on a coaster or tile. Keep away from children & pets.
Know When to Stop: Don't burn your candle if only 1/4"-1/2" of wax remains. Lighting a candle without enough wax can overheat the jar.
Reuse It: Once the candle is finished, clean out the jar. Now you've got a new little planter or herb jar!
