FAQs
- 01Often considered waste after your coffee has been brewed- the coffee grinds still hold valuable components and are suitable for repurposing. Its strong scent, and smoke from being burned can repel insects, including mosquitos.
- 02Each candle is hand-poured and home made in small batches. I put my unique personality and style into each after getting a new batch of spent grinds from each coffeeshop. Consider each one as individual as you are!
- 03Organically sourced Clove (both powder and whole) contains endless benefits that have been sought after for centuries. It’s warm spicy and comforting smell also deters pests, and creates a calming, air- purifying effect when burned.
- 04100% soy wax is a responsible choice, as it is biodegradable, natural and renewable. It burns clean without releasing any soot or toxins compared to paraffin. Its mild, creamy scent mixes perfectly with Coffee & Clove
- 05Strong smelling candles usually use synthetic fragrances and paraffin wax which, in order to smell so strongly, also release these chemicals when burned. Such as phthalates, parabens, and volatile organic compounds- all act as endocrine disruptors, effecting your hormones, causing headaches and even dizziness. Therefor, naturally scented candles might not be as strong, but their light scent, and benefits are far greater!
- 06Yes, this is completely normal! As your candle burns down, you're left with some of the excess coffee grinds. The coffee itself can burn and you can still light them . In some ways, this is the natural part of the candle, where maybe most of the soy wax has already melted and burned off. Coffee can still be lit (and where the idea began in the first place! To keep the bugs away) but in a safe, and monitored environment (like any candle should be) you can still enjoy the smell, the flickering, and the natural, non-toxic concept.
- 07If you feel like something is wrong with your candle, and don't feel like you got the most out of it, please reach out by email or direct message and I will like to make it right for you! If you were able to burn it down and are left with only some coffee left over, you can easily discard the remanence and reuse your glass jar for any purpose!
