About Our Brand:

Handmade Habitat is an all natural soy wax candle and beauty goods company rooted in slow, mindful living. Our products are consciously crafted with all natural ingredients to be healthy for the body, home, and Mother Earth.

Founder, Amina Ahmad, started Handmade Habitat while she was a Junior in college studying Environmental Science and Policy at the University of Maryland. While researching a paper, she became acutely aware of how toxic the everyday products in our homes are for both the environment and our long-term health. She set out to make her own all natural, eco-friendly soy candles that would not only cleanly illuminate homes, but also do right by the planet. Today, Handmade Habitat produces all products by hand, in small batches, in their sunny, solar-powered studio in the Langdon neighborhood of Washington, DC.

For the Best Burn:

Trim your wicks to 1/4” before each light

WHY: This will prevent your wicks from weighing down and sinking below the melted wax. This will also prevent soot from accumulating in your jars and in your home.

Burn your candle for enough time for the entire surface of the candle to melt evenly.

For your first light, this will take 2-3 hours. For subsequent lights, this will take less time.

WHY: Melted wax will have a different density than set wax and will melt down at different weights. Burning your candle for enough time to get an even burn surface will keep your candle burning well, and prevent tunneling in your candle.

For safety, keep candles away from children and pets or anything that can catch fire.
