A note from the owner of Big Dipper Wax Works: "It was back in the summer of '93 when I was first enlightened with the idea of making candles. My good buddy Hefe and I were hiking along the rugged shoreline of the Olympic Peninsula. On our first evening, as the final rays of sunshine dipped below the horizon, we breathed deep of the fresh ocean air and fixed our gazes upon the emerging stars. After several hours of philosophical banter on the meaning of life, my eyes settled on the most recognizable beacon in the northern sky, "The Big Dipper". Suddenly my future flashed before my eyes. I would use elements of nature, which I so respect, to create a natural source of light. Hand "dipped" beeswax candles. And so "Big Dipper" Wax Works was born. Like drones to their queen, we have served and remain dedicated to our values, and proudly continue to make the best all natural candles available."

 

Care Instructions

These pure beeswax taper candles are designed to be dripless. However, like pillars, any form of draft will cause the candle to drip and burn down much faster.

To prevent dripping, keep away from open windows, fans, or excessive airflow of any kind, and make sure that the candles are set up straight up and down.

Taper candles may not need trimming each burn. Trim as needed to maintain about ¼-½” wick height. Too short a wick may also lead to drips. Extinguish and trim the wick if the end of the wick is producing ash.

Use a candle snuffer to extinguish the candle flame mess-free, by removing the oxygen, making sure not to touch the candle or wick with the snuffer, which could weaken the side wall causing it to drip later.
