Why won't my wick stay lit?
Wooden wicks are awesome - but they can also be picky with their burning conditions. We still love them! Depending on the issue, the solution may differ. Use the guidelines below to troubleshoot your wick. If it's still not working, don't hesitate to contact us!
My wick is lit, but it's drowning in wax (very small flame).
Sometimes this happens when the wax isn't pulled up to the wick fast enough while burning. It happens sporadically. One time you light it and it's fine, then the next it's drowning. Not to worry! Try these simple steps to bring life back to your candle.
-
if your wax has melted to the edge of the jar, blow out your candle and let the wax re-harden. Trim your wick and re-light it! If it happens again, continue onto step 2.
-
When the melt pool is larger/melted all the way to the edge, fold up a piece of paper towel so its about 2 inches wide. Blow out your candle and absorb some of the wax to give it some room to breathe. Don't soak up all of the melted wax, just a bit at a time! Trim your wick, and relight your candle.
-
If steps 1 and 2 didn't work, please reach out to us with pictures/video so we can help!
My wick won't stay lit/keeps going out.
This happens when the wick is too long or the candle has started tunnelling.
-
If you haven't already, trim your wick. You can do this by taking a tissue and breaking off the flakey burnt part of the wick. Discard. Relight your candle and let the wax melt to the edge of the jar before blowing out. If it still won't stay lit, continue to step 2.
-
Does your jar have wax around the edge of it? This is called tunnelling. It happens when the wax isn't allowed to melt to the edge of the jar before it's blown out. To fix this, grab a knife and scrape out the excess wax around the edge of the jar (use the excess in your wax warmer, if you have one!) Trim your wick, and relight. Allow your wax to melt to the edge of the jar before blowing it out.

I don't like the smell of my candle.
-
If you prefer to smell before you buy, we encourage you to visit our retail locations, or visit us at a market event.
-
If you don't like the smell of your candle, you can reach out to us and receive store credit (account required) in the amount the candle cost. It is your responsibility to either ship the candle back to us at your cost and in perfect, unused condition, or drop it off in perfect, unused condition. If we determine your candle is not in a condition where we can resell it, your store credit will not be issued. *Used candles will not be accepted.*
I purchased a sale item. Can I return or exchange it?
-
All sale items are final sale unless a performance issue arises.
-
In the event of a performance issue please follow the steps in "why won't my wick stay lit?" to resolve issue or contact us. If the issue is not resolved, a store credit will be issued (account required). Because sale items are usually low in stock, an exchange for the same scent is not always possible. If it is possible to replace with the same scent, that option will take precedence over a store credit.
