Materials

These unique candles vessels are made with cement and colored with cement pigment. They are poured into a mold, hardened, and sanded on the bottom.

Process

First a mold is made with silicone. Then the cement is mixed with water and pigment (color) and poured in layers into the mold. Once hardened, the vessel is removed from the mold and left to finish curing. After the vessel is completely finished hardening, the bottom is sanded smooth to allow for safe handling and placement onto furniture. After the vessel is finished being made, it’s time to make candles for inside. Once the vessel is cleaned of all dust and debris, a wooden wick is placed inside. Then, soy wax is melted, fragrance is added, and once it’s at the right temperature, the scented wax is poured into the vessel and left to cure for 24-48 hours. Voila!

Customization

We have finally found a way to allow our customers to purchase our cement vessel candles online, and we’ve made the process customizable. Currently they are available by color scheme first. Then you choose the type of vessel/size of candle, then you choose your scent. It’s that easy! We make them to order with a 3-5 day turn around. Each vessel takes an entire day to create, then the candle needs 1-2 days to be poured and cured. We do production Mon-Friday only, so orders that come in over the weekend do not start until Monday, hence the possibility of it taking 5 days before it ships or gets delivered. Orders are made in the order they come in.
