how to use our incense cones:
you can light our incense cones in our handmade trinket dishes or any fire safe plate or small bowl. first, light the cone and let it stay lit by the flame for a couple of seconds. lightly blow out the flame, allowing the glowing ember to remain. a stream of smoke should be seen going out the top of the cone. if the ember is blown out or you do not see smoke, repeat the instructions.
best use for candles:
we recommend trimming your wood candle wicks to about 1/4 inch each time you are going to light your candle. you want to leave enough wick to evenly melt the candle wax, but not leave them too long so that your flame is too high. you may find that you are able to completely use up the candle to the bottom of the vessel by burning your candle when you are going to leave it lit long enough so that the pool of wax extends to the edges of the candle. our small candle should be lit for approximately 3 hours and the large 2-wick candle for approximately 4 hours. lit candles should always be attended.
why we use our wax:
we use a blend of natural apricot, coconut, soy, and a tiny amount of refined food-grade paraffin wax. this clean-burning, natural wax blend combines the luxurious richness of apricot with the smoothness of coconut, resulting in candles that burn evenly and emit wonderful fragrances. we also love how it has a creamy white appearance.
tee and crew care:
we design and screenprint our tees and crews! the best way to take care of our shirts and keep the design looking great for a long time is to wash them inside out in cold water. this will also help them hold their shape and size. the tees are garment dyed for a lived in feel and have minimal shrinkage. washing them in warm or hot water can cause the dye to fade over time.
cleaning woven art:
our woven art is very delicate and should be handled with care. if you find that your art is looking a bit dusty, you can use a swiffer duster or micro fiber cloth and lightly tap the fibers.
flower press instructions:
unscrew the wing nuts and take the flower press apart, taking care not to lose any of the hardware. place a piece of the cardboard on top of the bottom piece of wood followed by a piece of paper. lay your flowers on top of the paper in a single layer. make sure that you do not overlap any of the petals otherwise they will stick together. place a second sheet of paper on top of the flowers, followed by another piece of cardboard. add additional layers as desired. when you’re done adding layers, add a final piece of cardboard on top followed by the second piece of wood on the very top. to tighten your press, place a washer on each screw and secure with the wing nuts.
