About handmade candles
Handmade candles at GREENA are crafted with love and creativity by small local businesses. These candles are natural, organic, sustainable, and eco-friendly which make them a perfect choice for personal use and gifting. They are made using beeswax, soy wax infused with cotton wicks, essential oils, and some natural scents. These bespoke artworks are for customers who have adopted an organic lifestyle and love to find creative ideas for decor and gifting.
Benefits of using handmade:
1. No chemicals Release with flameÂ
The traditional paraffin wax candle that you get from the market has petroleum, carcinogens, and other air pollutants which harm you and deteriorate the air quality. When you use candles made from natural wax such as soy, rapeseed and beeswax you avoid the damage from these harmful toxins.Â
2. Longer burn time:
Homemade candles use natural waxes which have a lower melting point which makes them last longer than any other candle. So you save money and enjoy the beauty and scent of candles for a longer period of time.
3. No soot:
The black soot that candles emit out is due to the impurities in it. This black soot sticks to surfaces and spoils them. Also, it suppresses the natural scent of the candle giving out a burning smell. While this is not a problem when using a natural handmade candle as there is less or no soot in production.
4. Biodegradable:
These candles are made from biodegradable ingredients and also come in containers that are recyclable or reusable. It is easy to clean spills from these candles. These candles are made using renewable resources and hence are more sustainable and eco-friendly.
How are handmade candles made?
The basic process of making handmade candles involves melting the wax at optimal temperature to ensure quality products. Then adding natural scents along with natural dyes and a cotton or hemp wick and is set aside in a mold. Once set, voila you get your designer homemade candle.
