On the Make

  Candlemaker Ngaire testing a new fragrance . It was freezing in the Factory this   morning when I took this picture! Ngaire is also working on colour recipes – top secret until the August Gift Fair . The blend of colour, fragrance, wax and wick has to be extensively tested, as every factor affects the finished product. Some fragrances totally change the colour , and then some waxes make the fragrance smell quite different.Some fragrances even affect the way the wick burns. Candlemaking is definitely not a simple process!

winter warmth…

Snow is dusting the mountains already here, beautiful crisp Autumn days turn into chilly nights…and we get our fires going in an instant with these Fire Starters. Made out of recycled wax – the boxes that we fill up from scraping off our tables after each batch of candles get poured into the vat and turned this gorgeous red colour. Chopped up straw is added to the mix. Makes lighting the fire fun – just break off a few small pieces and place them amongst the paper and kindling – away it goes!Wax

This is one of the boxes of “WAX” in sadas candlemaking room…This recycled wax gets turned into Fire Starters
