About the Maker
created by
Jim Harper
Jim Harper has worked a range of “day jobs” in graphic design and IT over the years, but created art whenever he had the opportunity. With degrees in metalwork, jewelry, and sculpture, Jim synthesizes years of training and experience to craft stunning candles that are small works of art. “Creating a design which has the ability to burn well—and is reproducible in beeswax—has been a fascinating challenge,” he says.

Care
Trim the wick to 1/4 inch before lighting: If your wick is too long, it will cause a larger candle flame, causing wax to melt past the edge of the candle and drip. ● Periodically check on your candle for the correct wick length: Keep the wick at 1/4 inch long: long or crooked wicks can cause uneven burning, dripping or flaring. Conversely, if less than a 1/4 inch wick remains exposed, light the candle and tilt to allow enough wax to melt off the edge and expose the wick to a 1/4 inch. ● Check the wick for carbonization or mushrooming: Wick carbonization and mushrooming (when the wick is crumbly and expanded at the top) also indicate the need for wick trimming. Check for carbonization when the wick is unlit by squeezing between your fingers: if it crumbles (texture like charcoal), trim the wick down to the solid part. ● Allow candles with a burn time of 25 hours or more to burn at least two hours at a time.
