Caring For Your Candle

  • Never leave a burning candle unattended.
  • Keep your candle away from flammable objects, children, and pets.
  • When burning your candle for the first time, be sure to allow the melt pool to reach the edge of your vessel to avoid tunneling.
  • Always trim your wick to 1/4 inch before each burn. (This will help your candle last longer!)
  • Do not burn for longer than 4 hours at one time.
  • Hand-poured soy candles are unique and you may find some character coming through as you burn it. (This is normal, but please contact us with any questions.)
  • When your candle has 1/4 inch of wax left,stop burning! See our events tab to find e so you can re-pour your candle!

Plant Care

Origin: Ethiopia

Water: Keeping your arabica coffee plant consistently moist, but not soggy is best. Too little water will cause leaves to become wrinkly or begin to brown.

Sun: This plant enjoys bright, direct light.

Fertilizer: Fertilize every 2-3 months during spring and summer. It is not necessary to fertilize this plant during fall and winter.

Toxicity: Arabica coffee plants are toxic for animals.

Arrowhead

Origin: Africa

Water: Water your arrowhead when the top soil becomes dry. These plants prefer to be on the moist side, but not soggy.

Sun: This plant prefers low to medium light. Arrowhead can suffer from sunburn, so direct light is not recommended for this plant.

Fertilizer: Fertilize once a other month with all purpose houseplant food.

Toxicity: This plant is toxic for animals.

Croton

Origin: South-East Asia

Water: These plants love frequent watering. Leaves will become droopy or begin to fall if the plant is not receiving adequate water.

Dieffenbachia

Origin: Mexico

Water: This plant prefers to be on the drier side. Allow the top soil to dry completely and then water well. Under watering will produce yellow and
falling leaves.

Sun: Moderate light is best for this plant. Dieffenbachia will grow towards the light source, so rotating is important for a straight plant and healthy leaves on all sides.

Fertilizer: Fertilize twice a month with general purpose houseplant food.

Toxicity: Dieffenbachia is toxic for animals.

Pink Polka Dot Plant

Origin: South Africa, Madagascar, South-East Asia

Sun: These plants enjoy medium light, but can also tolerate a few hours of direct sunlight. Extended periods of low light is not recommended for this plant.

Fertilizer: Fertilize once a month with general purpose houseplant food.

Toxicity: This plant is non-toxic for animals.
