Product Description

Minimal & Mindful.

There’s a unique sense of peace that comes from making something with your own hands.  It is a gentle act of mindfulness, a way to slow the world down, if just for a brief moment.  When we came upon the Candle Kit by CandleDust, we knew we had to share it!  What's not to like?  Everything you'll need to create your perfect setting, all in one beautiful and minimally designed tube.

It's been a long day. You’re craving a moment of tranquility. You take out your CandleDust kit and a vessel you adore. Perhaps a piece of pottery you picked up on your travels.

You pour the soft, pearled wax, the Dark Honey scent already beginning to work its magic. You place the wick, light it, and watch as a gentle, warm glow fills the room. It’s more than just a candle, it’s a moment of serenity that you crafted yourself.

 

A ritual of light, scent, and creativity.

The beauty of this kit lies in its freedom. You’re bringing home the potential for countless moments of beauty and creativity. The Dark Honey scent is truly something special. It’s a complex and inviting fragrance, with top notes of honey with just a hint of tobacco, mellowing into a base of warm tonka beans.

It’s the kind of scent that feels like a cozy blanket and a good book on a rainy day. For those who love to experiment, you can even add a drop or two of your favorite essential oil to create your own unique signature blend.

This is an invitation to slow down, to create, and to fill your home with a light and a scent that is a true reflection of you. It’s a beautiful way to honor your creative spirit. We hope you’ll love it as much as we do.

Candle Care & Tips

CandleDust – Powdered Candle Kit Instructions

Note: The CandleDust Kit tubes are not a burn-safe container.  Always use a fireproof, open vessel.  For best results, maintain 8cm+ of spacing around each wick.

Fill the Container

Select a heat-safe container and pour in the desired amount of The CandleDust candle sand.

Insert Wicks

Position the wick so it stands approximately 1 cm above the surface. Ensure there is at least 4 cm of space around a single wick, or if using multiple, keep them at least 7 cm apart.

Light & Enjoy!

Light the candle and enjoy the warm glow. When the wick has burned down, replace it with a new one.

Refresh

When the wick has burned out, remove any remaining wax, add sand, give it a gentle shake to even it out, and insert new wicks. To reuse any remaining wick and hardened wax, flip them upside down and light again.

 

Reuse & Refresh

Once the candle cools and hardens, you have three elegant ways to continue the ritual:

Crush & Refill – Gently crush the cooled wax, top it up with fresh powder, and add a new wick

Relight – If enough wick remains, simply light it again like a standard candle

Reset Completely – Remove the hardened wax, pour fresh powder, insert a new wick, and begin anew

 

Why Trimming Your Wick Matters

Want your candle to last longer and burn cleaner?

The secret is simple: trim your wick!

 

Regular Wick Trimming

Extends burn time by up to 25%

Prevents smoke and soot buildup

Avoids tunneling (when the wax melts unevenly)

Just a few seconds of care before each burn can make a big difference.

 

How to Trim a Candle Wick

Extinguish the flame and let the wax cool.

Trim the wick to about ¼ inch above the wax.

Use a wick trimmer, scissors, or even nail clippers!

Catch and discard debris to keep wax clean.

Tip: Trim before every burn, especially if the wick has a “mushroom” shape on top.

 

Wick Trimming Tools

Wick Trimmer – Best option for clean, effortless cuts.

Scissors – Works fine, but can be messy.

Nail Clippers – Handy on-the-go alternative.

 

Wick Too Short?

If you over-trimmed:

Use a heat gun or hair dryer to melt the wax around the wick.

Pour out excess wax until ⅛ – ¼ inch of wick is exposed.

Let cool and relight.
