Made by hand, in small batches
No shortcuts, no mystery wax.
Wicknest started with a simple idea: a candle should make a room feel like home, and you should know exactly what’s burning in it.
Small runs, poured by hand
Every Wicknest candle is hand-poured in small runs — never a factory line. Small batches mean every jar gets checked, and every scent gets the time it needs.
We use 100% soy wax because it burns slower and cleaner than paraffin, and every fragrance we use is phthalate-free.
A wick you can hear
A wooden wick gives that soft crackle; a cotton wick keeps the flame steady. Either way you get an even melt to the edge of the jar and a scent that fills the room without shouting.

Candle care
Get the best burn
- First light, full melt. Let the first burn run two to three hours, until the wax melts all the way to the edge of the jar.
- Trim before you light. Keep the wick about ¼ inch (a wooden wick a little shorter) for a clean, steady flame.
- Lid on when it’s out. The wooden lid keeps dust off and the fragrance in between burns.
- Stay close. Never leave a flame unattended, and keep it away from drafts, kids and pets.
