Handcrafted in the Adirondack Mountain Region of New York State, each candle is inspired by local botanicals, healing forest elements, and the natural tranquility of the mountains.
Handcrafted on our farm in the Adirondack Foothills of New York using 100% natural soy wax, premium fragrance blends, and lead-free cotton wicks. Phthalate-free, cruelty-free, and gentle for those sensitive to artificial or overpowering scents.
- Trim wick to ¼ inch before each use.
- Burn no more than 4 hours at a time.
- Allow wax to melt fully to the edges to prevent tunneling.
- Always place on a heat-safe surface.
- Never leave unattended or near children, pets, or flammable items.
- Stop use when ¼ inch of wax remains.
- Let the jar cool completely before handling.
