Summer Candles

Lighter designs for the months when nobody wants cinnamon in the house. Floral and rose patterns, chosen for a porch table, a garden dinner or a windowsill left open into the evening — small enough to move outside with you and back in again when the light goes.

Heat is the thing to watch in summer: wax softens in a hot room or direct sun, so store these somewhere cool and never leave one on a sunlit sill unlit. Outdoors, a breeze will make any wick smoke, so shelter the flame. Our soy wax guide explains how natural wax behaves as temperatures climb, and this handles a softened spill.
