THE HONEY BEE
When a daughter honey bee is about fifteen days old, tiny flakes of wax secrete from the belly. Honey bees sculpt the wax into the hexagonal honeycomb which houses their food and baby siblings.
Beeswax begins colorless and scentless
the hue & scent varies based on the plant materials stored within the honeycomb
The heart of the studio is a pot of beeswax.
The floral scent of honeycomb fills the air.
Wax touches everything.

Candlelight leaves little to nothing behind. Packaging should match this vanishing act. Low-impact waste is prioritized by using biodegradable tape, less ink, cotton string, and uncoated paper packaging.
Send candle scraps. Get recycled candles.
