"It's home, the only life I've ever known."
Orange nuances blended with the aromatic notes of lavender, oak and patchouli, enveloped in a tobacco-leaf scent and mellowed by a sweet combination of vanilla and tonka bean. Crafted with Jefferson Airplane's "Tobacco Road" in mind.
Made with 100% all-natural soy wax, blended with the maximum ratio of fully-concentrated natural organic fragrance oil (almost double the recommended amount), and crafted in small batches, these are fabulous-smelling, clean-burning, long-lasting candles. (Hemp wicks are more sustainable than cotton and burn hotter, which helps strengthen the scent and improve fragrance throw.)
WHAT'S GOOD?
BORING (BUT USEFUL) STUFF
Size:
3oz: approx. 2.5" w x 1.63" 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.

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."
