The best thing to happen to candles since the invention of matches.
Anyone who has ever tried to burn pillar candles only to have them burn unevenly and leak wax down one side understands the frustration of the mess and waste of money that goes along with that.
Though traditional candles have been around for hundreds of years, container candles only became popular during the last quarter century.
The glass jar, no matter what shape or size, holds the melted wax pool safely, protects the flame from drafts and allows the light to shine in all directions.
In addition, container candles allow for the use of softer waxes and the addition of stronger candle scents that could never be considered for the other candle forms. It is in this form that pure soy wax really "shines."
Flower Child offers glass jar candles in several forms including canning jars, apothecary jars, trendy "Metro" jars, vases and the popular glass sugar shakers and cheese shakers.
