Plan the candle budget
A 4 oz amber jar is $16 on its own. Every complete group of 4 Small candles gets the $56 sampler price automatically in the cart, so you can give the jars separately or keep them together as one gift. You can repeat a scent or mix them.
| Candles | Candle total | Average each |
|---|---|---|
| 4 Small candles | $56 | $14 |
| 8 Small candles | $112 | $14 |
| 10 Large candles | $240 | $24 |
Each example reaches our $50 free US shipping threshold when purchased as one order to one address. A group of 4 Small candles can be 4 individual gifts; gift bags or personal notes are something you can add yourself.
Choose a size for the gift
The 4 oz amber jar holds 3.5 oz of wax and burns for about 25–30 hours. It's a smaller thank-you gift. The 9 oz amber jar holds 7.5 oz of wax and burns for about 40–50 hours. Jar sizes and wax weights are listed separately on every product page.
Ask about fragrance preferences
A favorite scent is more useful than guessing that everyone likes the same thing. Vanilla Bean has vanilla, tonka and cocoa notes; Pink Grapefruit is bright and citrusy; Fresh Balsam has fir, balsam and cedar notes. Unscented contains no added fragrance oil. Give people a choice if you can.
If you're deciding between scents, build a four-candle sampler first. Keep the candle's care label with each gift.
One delivery address or several?
A website order has one shipping address. For a team you'll see in person, you can have the candles delivered together and hand them out. Separate orders to different addresses have their own shipping calculation: $6.95 below $50, with free US shipping at $50 or more.
Check the date before ordering
Our published standard estimate is 2–5 business days for production, then 2–5 business days in transit. For more than 10 of the same scent and size, or gifts needed for a particular event, email us before ordering with the quantity, preferred sizes and scents, and the date you need them. We'll confirm the options for your order. See delivery and returns for the current policy.
