SAFETY TIPS WHEN BURNING CANDLES

For the first melt, light the candle and let burn until there is a nice layer of melted wax. This will help maintain a nice even burn. Never leave a candle unattended. Please keep away from flammable objects, pets and children. Prevent possible heat damage to counters and surfaces by discontinuing use when about 2 inches of the wax remains at the bottom of the jar! Especially when burning candles with dried flowers and herbs, take EXTRA precautions, as all the added herbs will cause the candle to burn hotter and could cause damage to surfaces.

Wicks and Whims

Meet the Maker

Who And Why

My name is Priscilla, and I started this small business journey back in 2018, as a way to break the monotony of being a slave to a "9-5" job. I needed something to spark the creative passion in me again. Something to help redirect my focus and improve my mental health. Thus, Wicks and Whims was created! "Wicks" to define the lovely handmade candles I create, and "Whims" as an umbrella term to define all the other bits and bobs that spark joy in me. 

In August 2020, I suddenly had to close up shop to make room for an even bigger surprise; the announcement of my pregnancy. Fast forward to March 2021 which saw the birth of my amazing son. And fast forward again a few months later, in the unexpected throes of PPD and looking for a way to cope. 

And so, I opened Wicks and Whims once again, bringing back that spark of creativity that I needed. Wicks and Whims has truly been an amazing coping mechanism for me. It allows me to throw myself into something I am passionate about, to challenge myself daily, and to continue improving my mental health. 

I hope my little shop can bring joy to you as well.
