Custom Color candles: As of 3/1/07, a color sample is required from customer prior to making candles and we will try to match it as closely as possible. Color sample cards from Home Improvement Stores / Paint Stores or fabric samples can be submitted. Sample will be returned with the candle. This is necessary due to fact that some scent oils have a pigment in the scent oil which effect the final color of the candle.

Below is a chart with the standard colors that can be made with the liquid dyes in stock. Shade may vary slightly and colors on your computer screen may vary. Colors are only a guideline of what is available.

Candle Tips & Cautions

Remove packaging and label before burning.

Trim wick to 1/4" after each use or before burning again.

Keep candles out of drafts. Drafts create large flames shortening the burning time.

Only burn candles on a protective surface.

Pillar candles, on initial burning, burn for one hour, extinguish and let wax harden, trim wick to 1/4" before relighting.

Burn pillar candles one hour for each inch diameter. Example: 3" diameter / 3 hours.

Multi wick candles (3-wick, 5-wick & 7-wick), burn no longer than 3 hours at a time.

Votive candles should be burned in a glass votive holder.

To easily remove wax from your votive holder, place in freezer for 15 minutes. Candle wax will then release from glass.

Candles exposed to bright light and sunlight will fade over extended periods of time.

Keep candles out of reach from children and pets.

Properly extinguish candles after each use.
