Nowadays, the range of candles available is vast. They can be bought in ordinary supermarkets, interior design shops, and there is an endless choice available in both domestic and foreign online shops. Still, it is wise to consider a few aspects before buying an everyday product like a candle.
If you think back to around 10-20 years ago, the range was much more limited and you couldn't buy much more than plain paraffin wax candles in local shops. Even now, we often make the same automatic choice. But before buying a paraffin wax candle - which is available everywhere and affordable for everyone - it is good to think about its harmful effects.
Of course, the sporadic use of a paraffin candle will not have major harmful effects. But we can say that there are much more environmentally friendly alternatives nowadays. One such alternative is TheCandledust's powdered candles, which we have developed with a focus on sustainability and reusability.
One of the biggest advantages of a powder candle is that you can make a completely personalised candle - the possibilities are almost endless.
When you buy tea lights or ordinary candles, they are usually in a glass container and that container is left over after use. With the aluminium casing of a tea light, there is nothing you can do but throw it away, but the glass jar of a regular candle you can easily refill with powdered wax in the future.
You can use all kinds of containers when making a powder candle - old glass jars, favourite coffee cups or other suitable bowls - the possibilities are endless. So you can make a candle that perfectly suits a specific room or occasion.
Candles with multiple wicks in a large, shallow bowl look particularly stylish and impressive. It is important then that there is at least 8 centimetres between wicks. Of course, make sure the holders you use are heat-resistant.
With powder candles from TheCandledust, you can create different mood elements every day - you'll never run out of powder candles!
To spark your creativity, TheCandledust offers a wide range of refill packs of powdered candles in different fragrance tones. Making your own candles creates hardly any waste, and we use only 100% vegetable, eco-friendly wax for our powder candles.
Let your imagination run wild with stylish designs!
