Helpful Candle Tip - Always use a tea light holder when burning tea light candles. The cup that holds the beeswax becomes hot and could damage your tabletop surface.
100% Natural Beeswax
Beeswax is a renewable all natural product with no additives or fillers. It is non-toxic, safe enough to eat, use in cosmetics, and more commonly as a clean burning & bright fuel source as a beeswax candle. Unlike most of the manufactured paraffin candles, beeswax is hypo-allergenic, great for people with allergies or other sensitivities and those of us who want a safe, clean burning candle in our homes.
100% Cotton Wick
Following the Bee Hive Candles' philosophy of keeping our candles all natural and safe to burn, we use only 100% cotton wick in every candle we make. While most candle manufactures in the US no longer use lead core wicks, some of the imported and low quality paraffin candles found in stores can still contain lead wicks. Our wicks are square braided cotton and have been selected for each beeswax candle to provide a bright flame and optimum wax pool to prevent tunneling.
Incredibly Long Burn Times
Bee Hive Candles' solid beeswax candles are the most durable and long lasting candles you can own. They burn brighter, longer, and cleaner than any other type of candle. Compared by burn time, beeswax candles are usually a better value than paraffin, even when beeswax appears to cost more. Try our beeswax candles, the incredibly long burn time will simply amaze you!
Hand Poured & Hand Finished
We pour each and every solid beeswax pillar, taper, votive, and tea light by hand. It takes a practiced hand to ensure each candle is poured correctly - we don't want any air bubbles, loose wicks, cosmetic streaks or imperfections. Once the beeswax candle has cooled and been removed from the mold, we inspect each candle to ensure it's quality. We have no "factory second" beeswax candles; if the candle doesn't make the quality inspection, it goes right back into the wax melter.
Some candle makers will ship you their product directly after removing it from the mold where it is often unleveled, uneven, and simply unattractive. We've always taken the time to firmly level and hand finish each solid beeswax pillar candle to create a smooth finish so that our beeswax candles are as stunning to look at as they are beautiful to burn.
Smoke & Soot Free
No one wants their home to be covered in candle soot, which is a common result of burning paraffin candles. An excellent way to prevent this from occurring, but still enjoying the beauty of a candle, is to use beeswax candles. When burned in a draft free environment with a wick trimmed to 1/4" a beeswax candle will burn bright and clean without smoke or soot.
Naturally Dripless
While there are not any candles that should be allowed to burn unattended, beeswax candles burn safer than others with minimal maintenance. Beeswax candles are naturally drip free and do not require chemicals to make them dripless like paraffin candles. The molecular structure and higher melting point of beeswax makes beeswax candles much better at holding their wax pool. This fact combined with a properly maintained wick and draft free environment will prevent drips from occurring.
Natural Honey Scent and Color
Our beeswax comes direct from beekeepers in the Pacific Northwest where the honey bees fly among raspberries, fireweed, and wildflowers along the winding Nooksack River. The resulting wax is a beautiful shade of yellow that has a natural aromatic honey fragrance. We simply reshape the bees' creation; the color and the scent are created by the hardworking bees. We do not add anything to our beeswax and only filter out the large particles that could interfere with the flame.
Beeswax Has Health Benefits
Negative ions, which can make you feel better, are most commonly found near moving water, such as crashing waves, thunderstorms, and waterfalls. The moving water causes the surrounding air to move and that along with sunlight and radiation breaks apart molecules of air. The broken pieces end up with extra electrons making them negative ions. There are other natural negative ion generators too, including our specialty, beeswax candles.
