What is a hurricane candle?
A Hurricane candle is a candle that has a center burning core that will
typically have an outer shell containing embeds of a sort. When lit the
core will burn down the center of the candle, leaving the outer shell
virtually untouched, creating a glow that will illuminate the embeds.
Are they available in any size?
Hurricane candles are currently only available in the 4" x 4 1/2" size.
However, new sizes and shapes are in the works for Hurricane candles and
we will keep you updated.
What is a mottled candle?
A Mottled candle is a texture created in the wax during its making that
can be a range of cracks, starbursts, marbled appearance, bubbles,
wrinkles, dusting, etc. You'll find that on the pictures that depict
the types of candles I create you'll be able to see the different mottle
finishes, of which some will differ from others.
Can I buy your candles in a store?
Currently you can buy my candles in a store. My vendor Route 5 is
located in Chambersburg, PA. However, being that my site is up and
coming for online ordering, I don't know that I will continue to sell my
candles to Route 5 as they inflate their selling cost a hundred percent,
doubling the price that I actually sell them the candle for. Meaning
their customers pay $16.00 for a candle that I sell to Route 5 for
$8.00.
They are considering a contract with me but in their contract
they want me to inflate my selling prices to their floor price so that
they do not lose business to me. This becomes my issue. I would love
to promote my business and name through a store, however my purpose for
making and selling candles is to give my customers a great deal on a
great product.
I pour a lot of effort into making each candle a great
value for your money...as that is what I would want if I were buying
candles. So the answer to that question would be that I am currently
selling candles in a store, but once the supply they purchased from me
depletes, I will only be selling online and from my home.
Do you do custom orders? What if I want a purple coffee candle?
Yes, I do custom orders. If you wanted a purple coffee candle I would
probably wonder why (haha), but respect your vision and would most
definitely create a purple coffee candle. However, I will not take
financial responsibility for a custom order that once delivered you find
that you just don't think you made the right choice. So you as the
consumer will need to keep in mind that being I do not have any pictures
of purple coffee candles (or any other custom order) for you to
view...what you want is what you will get.
