We’ve heard you. Our in-person candle-making experience, with its focused instruction and high-quality tools, often leaves people asking: "How can I bring this professional-level craft home?"
For years, finding an at-home kit that combines the precision of a professional setup with the joy of a creative DIY project has been nearly impossible. Most kits are simple melt-and-pour projects that compromise on quality and lack the tools needed for perfection.
That changes NOW.
We are thrilled to officially announce the launch of The "Pro" At-Home Candle Making Kit, releasing on December 10th! And for our loyal community, early access pre-orders are open right now. This is more than a craft kit—it’s the entire professional workshop, delivered right to your door.
The Pro Difference: Why You’ll Feel Like a Master Chandler
The secret to a smooth, long-burning candle lies in precision. We haven't just thrown some wax and a wick into a box; we’ve included the exact tools we use in our studio to guarantee your success.
🔬 The Science of the Thermometer
Forget guesswork. The single biggest difference between a novice candle and a pro candle is the pour temperature. That's why we include a dedicated Thermometer in every kit. Our detailed guide teaches you exactly what temperatures to hit for adding fragrance and for pouring into your tins, ensuring perfect wax adhesion and a smooth top every time.
🔥 The Art of the Wood Wick
We skip the standard cotton wicks and provide three premium Wood Wicks. These create a clean, modern aesthetic and, more importantly, a beautiful, comforting crackle as they burn. We also supply the necessary wick tabs and stickers to make sure your wick stays perfectly centered—a small detail that guarantees an even burn from top to bottom.
📚 Your Guide to Perfection
Don't worry about the complexity of the science! We have condensed years of candlery experience into our "Pro" Instructional Guide. It walks you through every measurement, every temperature, and every step, turning a potentially frustrating project into a fun, repeatable creative success.
Deep Dive: Selecting Your Signature Scents
The most exciting part of your journey is choosing your fragrance. Your kit includes enough wax and materials to make three candles, and we invite you to select two different premium fragrance oils from our Curated Fragrance Bar. You will get to experiment with both scents, making either two of one scent and one of the other, or saving some of both to mix and create a custom blend!
Here is the detailed breakdown of our 29 exclusive fragrance profiles to help you make your choices:
🌲 The Winter Woods & Cool Earth Collection
These scents capture the depth, chill, and greenery of the great outdoors during the cooler months.
The Pining for Winter: A robust, hyper-realistic pine profile. It features rich spruce and balsam fir needles, grounded by an unexpected note of crisp, cold earth.
The Aspen Chill: Imagine stepping onto a snowy mountain trail. This scent combines biting fresh air and minty eucalyptus, balanced with soft cedarwood and a faint vanilla musk base.
The Golden Fir: This is our elevated take on a Christmas tree. It focuses on the vibrant aroma of Fraser Fir, sweetened and warmed by notes of golden amber and a touch of holiday spice.
The Peculiar Pine: An aromatic paradox. It offers the traditional woodiness of pine and moss, but is lifted by an unusually bright, almost citrusy top note, making it complex and intriguing.
The First Frost: Crisp, sharp, and clean. This ozonic blend smells like the immediate hours after a window pane has been frosted, featuring notes of cold mint and ozone.
The First Snow: Capturing the quiet anticipation of the season, this scent features a beautiful blend of light ozone and clean aldehydes, reminiscent of silent, fresh snowfall.
🔥 The Warm & Atmospheric Collection
These are the scents of coziness, deep comfort, and gathering around the hearth.
The Lodge: The ultimate expression of home comfort. It blends warm woods—think teak, mahogany, and sandalwood—with a gentle vanilla spice that evokes a luxurious, rustic cabin.
The Cracklin' Birch: This scent focuses on the dry, woody aroma of birch bark and cedar, with an undercurrent of smoky vanilla. It is a highly textured scent that smells like a glowing embers.
The Cranberry Fire: Tart, jeweled cranberries are the bright star here, simmered over a rich, smoky wood fire. It’s a warm, festive blend that avoids being overtly sweet.
Fireside Noel: The quintessential holiday evening scent. It blends classic Christmas spices like cinnamon and clove with a gentle layer of smoked wood and creamy vanilla.
🖤 The Dark & Mysterious Collection
For those who prefer scents that are complex, moody, and full of surprising depth.
The Smoking Gun: A bold, edgy fragrance built around notes of clean gunpowder, aged leather, and a hint of warm tobacco leaf. It’s unique and powerfully intriguing.
Lumps of Coal: An incredibly unique scent that smells like the aftermath of a fireplace—rich charcoal and ash are sweetened by dark woods and a faint amber musk.
Black Frost: This masculine, sharp, and confident scent is a blend of crisp bergamot, cedarwood, and a bold citrus overlay, perfect for cleansing or setting a sophisticated mood.
Krampus Krawl: A dark, moody blend of deep, black fruits, patchouli, and heavy spice, offering a complex, mysterious counterpoint to traditional holiday aromas.
Saint Nick's Shadow: A deep, woodsy fragrance with musky undertones and an unusual layer of rich, dark spice, perfect for setting an atmospheric evening mood.
Christmas Sins: A complicated, almost boozy holiday fragrance that suggests spiced cocktails and festive indulgence.
🧁 The Gourmand & Sweet Collection
These fragrances are rich, decadent, and smell good enough to eat—without being overpowering.
The Peppermint Mocha: The perfect cold-weather treat. It blends robust dark chocolate and espresso notes with a blast of cool, refreshing peppermint.
Red Velvet Riot: A rich, authentic cocoa cake batter scent, topped with a photorealistic note of sweet, tangy cream cheese frosting.
The Sugar Plum Danish: A wonderfully complex bakery scent combining buttery Danish pastry notes with warm, stewed plums and a dusting of sweet vanilla sugar.
The Sugar Blush: A delicate, lighter sweetness. Think spun sugar and soft pink fruits, creating an airy and gently comforting aroma.
🌹 The Floral & Romantic Collection
Elegant, nuanced, and beautifully structured scents that transcend simple florals.
The Twilight & Tuberose: A sophisticated, heady blend focusing on the night-blooming, intoxicating aroma of tuberose, balanced with subtle notes of twilight musk.
The Picnic in the Peonies: Fresh, vibrant, and green. This captures the delicate floral sweetness of blooming peonies combined with light, dewy grass notes.
The First Crush: A sweet, innocent, and bright floral blend, reminiscent of first affection with notes of clean linens and soft, young blossoms.
The Amber Desire: A warm, sensual fragrance built on rich, golden amber, softened by musk and a hint of dark vanilla bean.
The Love After Death: A hauntingly beautiful contrast between dark, earthy notes and bright, lingering florals.
💀 The Macabre & Earthy Collection
Unique scents for those who prefer abstract, conceptual fragrance profiles.
The Graveyard: A scent that is unexpectedly beautiful. It captures the distinct aroma of wet earth, moss, green ivy, and damp stone.
The Death Valley: A dry, almost dusty, arid scent that includes notes of desert sage, sun-baked earth, and dry chaparral wood.
