Sunshine Signature Concrete Candle – Uplifting Coconut Soy Candle
No. 02 · Uplifting. For the mornings that need more brightness, or the stretches where joy has to be a choice.
Sunshine is a bright, cheerful blend made to let the light back in. Hand-poured into a hand-cast concrete vessel you'll keep long after the last burn.
What it smells like
Like opening the windows on a sunny morning. Juicy mandarin and sunflower over a soft suede finish. Bright and cheerful, but still cozy.
Key notes: mandarin, sunflower, suede

Candle care
- First burn: let the wax melt all the way to the edges (about 2–3 hours) so it doesn't tunnel.
- Trim the wick to 1/4″ before every burn.
- Burn no more than 4 hours at a time.
- Stop when about 1/2″ of wax is left.
- Concrete can get warm, so set it on a heat-safe surface.
- Never leave a burning candle unattended. Keep away from drafts, kids and pets.
- Keep the seed paper cover on between burns. When the candle is finished, plant the cover in soil and keep it moist.
- To reuse the vessel, freeze it for an hour, pop out the leftover wax, and use it as a planter or catch-all.

Good to know
Signature or Affirmation? Signature is the larger candle in a keepsake concrete vessel. The I Choose Joy Affirmation Candle is the same Sunshine scent in a smaller glass jar for $18.
Handmade vessel: each concrete vessel is cast by hand, so small air bubbles and variations in tone and texture are natural. No two are alike.
