Soy Candle — Sunshine Daydream

BORING (BUT USEFUL) STUFF
Size:
3oz: approx. 2.5" w x 1.63" h
8oz: approx. 2.5″ w x 5″ h

How to use: Each time before lighting, trim the wick to 1/4 inch. This ensures that the flame doesn’t grow too tall, get too hot, and evaporate the scented wax more quickly. (Doing this extends the life of your candle.) 

Care: Keep a wick trimmer handy to easily cut and discard wicks before each burn. Allow the top of the candle wax to pool or liquify entirely with each burn to maintain a level candle top and avoid tunneling. To maximize the overall life of the candle, do not burn longer than 4 hours at a time. 

3oz: Up to 20 hours of total burn time. 
8oz: Up to 60 hours of total burn time.

ABOUT THE COMPANY
Lit Up Candle Co. was founded by Stacey and PJ, two beer and music lovers with a candle-making problem on a mission to promote sustainability.

From Lit Up: "As a DIYer-at-heart, Stacey began making candles in college. Shortly after Stacey and PJ started dating 15 years later, PJ showed interest in learning one of her hobbies by surprising her with a much better bottle cutter than the used one from eBay with 1960's packaging that she'd been using. They immediately got to work: it took over a month to create 80 candles for their first event, a local beer festival, where they were pleasantly surprised by the customer response. 

What started as a couple’s shared hobby and side gig quickly grew into something more. Lit Up LLC was officially established in 2015. They upgraded from a bottle cutter and belt sander to a wet tile saw and flat lap wheel, and continued making investments in equipment and honing their craft as they grew. In 2017 they took the leap: Stacey and PJ stepped away from their day jobs and into the business full-time. 

We pour a lot of love and intention into our handcrafted, sustainable products so you can enjoy high-quality home fragrance that's eco-friendly, sustainable, long-lasting, and fills your space."
