FAQs
What is the best way to care for my candle?
Trim the wick to ¼" before each burn. On the first burn, allow the wax to melt to the edge of the vessel. Burn for no more than 4 hours at a time, and keep your candle away from drafts, children, pets, and flammable materials. Stop burning when approximately ½" of wax remains.
How long will my candle burn?
Our 8 oz / 228 g candles burn for approximately 40 hours when burned according to the care instructions above.
What are Cedar & Cove candles made from?
Our love of nature informs both what we create and how we make it. We use coconut soy wax, phthalate- and paraben-free fragrance oils, and lead- and zinc-free wicks, thoughtfully selected for quality and performance in the home. The depth and nuance of fragrance oils allow us to turn the landscapes we love into scent.
How strong are the scents?
Each fragrance has its own character and presence. Some feel more expansive, while others are intentionally softer and more intimate. Our scent descriptions and profiles are designed to help you choose the candle that best suits your space.
In general, our Air and Water scents are designed to be the most expansive and fragrant while our Earth and Fire scents are designed for intimate spaces and to draw you in.
