I happen to know the owner of the company, and that's how I became acquainted with the product. But I'm not doing this post because I know her - I'm doing this post because I use her candles and I love them. They have a wide variety of container shapes and scents. Here's the cool thing about Clear Candles - the candle container is refillable with their special patented mineral oil inserts, so you burn the insert, and then use a refill pack and you can keep the beautiful outer container. I have several of them in this size and shape and it's my favorite.....
Let me give you some pertinent information right off of their website because they can explain it much better than I can:
Here's our "BURN CLEAR, BURN CLEAN" advantage:
All of our refillable, illuminating candle art is handmade with special attention to safety and design, inspired by the beauty of real fruit, flowers, foliage, and botanical plants. These ingredients along with the highest quality in decorative elements give you a piece of candle art to enjoy for a lifetime.
The patented, edible-grade white mineral oil used in our candles burns SOOT-FREE and toxin-free, allowing our candles to burn for a minimum of 40-50 hours, up to 100+hours. Our unique zinc core wicks are lead-free and will self-extinguish adding to our many safety features.
Because our candles are REFILLABLE, we have our own votive size refills made from the same SOOT-FREE, toxin-free mineral oil ,allowing each one to burn 25-30 hours. When your candle is ready for a refill, you can keep the same aroma, or choose from the hundreds of fragrances we have for your pleasure.
Our candles are 100% Reusable and Eco-friendly. We do our part in keeping our planet green!
I've used the same candle containers over and over for several years now and I just refill them with a new votive that is available in a variety of different scents that you can purchase directly from their website. They have enough scents to please almost everyone. Currently there are almost 40 different flavors to choose from, but some of my favorites are
- Blackberry Sage
- Caramel apples and oak
- Apple pie
- Mango and pineapple
- Mulberry
- Raspberry
- Tangerine
Their candle containers have themes like:
Home Décor, flowers, ocean, spa, butterflies, animals, holidays, spiritual, honor, and they will do custom designs for you as well.
If you'd like to visit their spacious store location and you're in the Chicago area, they are located at 1313 Rand Road in Arlington Heights.
They are also frequent sellers at events near and far, like crafts shows and festivals. You can visit their website for an updated event list.
Keep Clear Candle in mind for a special and unique holiday gift. Or just buy a candle for yourself. Since the outer container is refillable, you are purchasing a home décor item that will last you for years to come.
Visit their website here and their Facebook page here. You can purchase products from their website, the store or at arts and crafts shows that they are visiting.
This is something that's definitely piqued my interest, Kim! Tom and I used to spend money hands-over-fist, keeping Yankee Candles burning. Shortly before her death, the vet was examining our Caraleigh's lung xrays and asked if we burned candles often. I was so distraught after she passed that I never went back and asked him about the connection ... but I've never bought another candle. Their soot-free, toxin-free product sounds like a great alternative.
