understanding not everyone has access to a microwave, you may use our stove heating instructions below:
1. remove wick and holder from pouch, peel off sticker from the wick base and firmly centre to the bottom of your vessel.
2. fill a saucepan or pot with water (enough to cover 1/3 of upright candle wax pouch) and bring to boil. note: you'll need a saucepan at least 20cm in diameter.
3. reduce heat to simmer and place open pouch upright in water. stir wax every 2 minutes until completely melted and play our 'songs to melt to' playlist above while you wait. note: ensure adequate ventilation and never leave stove unattended.
4. carefully remove pouch from water and leave to cool for 2 minutes on a tea towel. pour the fragrance oil into the melted candle wax. mix well with spoon. warning: melted candle wax will be hot; take caution and handle carefully.
5. carefully pour mix into your vessel and ensure the wick is centred using the wick holder. allow at least 2 hours for your candle to set on a cooling rack. note: cooling rack will help prevent sinkholes forming.
6. once set, trim wick to 5mm with a wick trimmer or scissors and enjoy your new candle.
