From Our Hearts to Your Homes: The Making of a Clean Slate Candle

From Our Hearts to Your Homes: The Making of a Clean Slate Candle

At Clean Slate Candle Co., every candle we create is more than just wax and fragrance—it’s a story, a purpose, and a labor of love. Our mission to spread awareness about addiction recovery and provide hope and light to others fuels every step of our process. Today, we’re pulling back the curtain to share how our candles go from our hands to your homes.

Inspired Beginnings

Each Clean Slate candle begins with a spark of inspiration. Whether it’s the tranquil comfort of Midnight Revalations or the cozy allure of Apple Maple Mash, we carefully choose fragrances that tell a story. Many of our scents reflect themes of renewal, recovery, and cherished memories, all designed to create a sense of peace and grounding in your space.

Choosing High-Quality Ingredients

We believe that quality is non-negotiable. That’s why we source eco-friendly soy wax for all our candles. Soy wax burns cleaner, lasts longer, and is better for the environment, perfectly aligning with our commitment to a brighter, healthier future. Our fragrances are phthalate-free, ensuring that every Clean Slate candle is safe for your home and family.

The Crafting Process

Our candles are handcrafted in small batches, allowing us to pour care and attention into every detail. Here's how the magic happens:

1. Melting the Wax: We melt the soy wax to the ideal temperature, ensuring a smooth and even burn.

2. Blending the Fragrance: Once the wax reaches the perfect temperature, we mix in our carefully curated fragrance oils. This step requires precision to ensure a balanced and long-lasting scent.

3. Pouring the Wax: The wax is hand-poured into jars, one at a time, with steady hands and lots of love. Each jar is prepped with a wick that’s carefully centered to provide an even flame.

4. Curing and Finishing: After pouring, the candles are left to cure for a 2 week minimum, allowing the wax and fragrance to bind. Once cured, we trim the wicks and label the jars, making them ready for their journey to your home.

A Flame with a Purpose

What sets Clean Slate Candle Co. apart is the story behind every flame. Our candles are not just about fragrance—they're about hope. As a family touched by addiction recovery, we pour our experiences and passion into every product. When you light a Clean Slate candle, you’re not only filling your home with a beautiful scent but also supporting a mission to spread awareness and healing.

From Our Family to Yours

We don’t just make candles; we share a piece of our hearts with every one. Our goal is to create products that remind you of the power of a fresh start—a clean slate. Whether you're unwinding after a long day, celebrating a milestone, or simply enjoying a quiet moment, we hope our candles bring a sense of peace and positivity to your life.

Thank you for inviting us into your homes and for being a part of our journey. Together, we’re shining a light on recovery, one flame at a time.

With love,
The Clean Slate Candle Co. Family
