Dear ones all,
This year we wanted to be really thoughtful about what the holidays mean to us. What came up was that we wanted to send some light and sweetness to those that we love and celebrate artisanal excellence.
If you are reading this, you’ve received your beautiful KEAP candle. This Brooklyn-based artisanal candlemaker makes sustainable, natural candles that completely wow’d us.
A few candle-burning tips:
The first burn is the most important The first time you burn any candle, burn it for 2-3 hours. This will not only maximize the fragrance throw, but also help avoid “tunneling”—where the candle burns down the middle, leaving wax around the edges.
Trimming the wick to 1/4” before burning helps ensure a smaller, safer flame and less soot. Nail clippers do the trick. The width of your littlest finger is a good guide to the correct length.
Once you’ve burned your candle, you can easily give the candleholder a second life by cleaning it out and removing the no-residue labels. For tips on cleaning, visit KeapBK.com/Reuse.
Listen to this Meditation playlist when you unwind, relax and burn your holiday candle.
