Frequently Asked Questions

How long does a soy wax candle last?

The burn time of a soy wax candle depends on the size and shape of the candle. The smallest Eco Decor shaped candles burn for about 1.5 hours, and larger candles about 3-4 hours.

We recommend always burning the candle on a non-flammable surface so that melted soy wax does not drip directly onto the table or other surfaces. This protects surfaces and makes candle use safer.

Where are Eco Decor's soy wax candles made?

Eco Decor's soy wax candles are handmade in Finland, in Lappeenranta. The candles are made in small batches, so each product may show a small handmade touch.

Is a soy wax candle suitable as a gift?

Yes. Soy wax candles make great gifts because they do not require a specific size or interior style. A beautiful candle is easy to give to a friend, teacher, coworker, mother, mother-in-law, or as a Christmas gift.

Can shaped candles be used only as decoration?

Yes. Many shaped candles also look beautiful as decoration without burning. The candle can be placed, for example, on a shelf, in a table setting, with a gift package, or as part of Christmas decor.

How do I choose the right soy wax candle?

First, consider the purpose. A light or neutral candle is often a safe choice as a gift. Christmas decorations suit trees, cones, houses, and other seasonal models. For interior decoration, choose a color and shape that fits the home's atmosphere.

How should soy wax candles be burned?

Always burn the candle on a non-flammable and heat-resistant surface. Do not leave a burning candle unattended, and do not place it near children, pets, or easily flammable materials.

How should soy wax candles be stored?

Store the candle in a dry place at room temperature. Avoid direct sunlight and hot spots to keep the candle's surface, color, and shape as beautiful as possible.

Are all the candles exactly the same?

Not completely. Since the candles are handmade, there may be small individual differences. This is part of the nature of a handmade product and usually does not affect the use of the candle.

When are soy wax candles available?

Eco Decor's candles are seasonal products, and the largest selection is usually available during the Christmas season. Outside the season, candles can also be made, for example, as corporate gifts or special orders.
