What is candle sand?
Fine granules of candle wax. Pour it into a vessel, push in a wick and light it — no melting, no moulds. The wax melts around the flame as it burns.
What can I use as a vessel?
Anything heat-safe that holds sand: glass jars and tumblers, ceramic bowls, teacups, shells, terracotta. Avoid plastic, wood and anything that cracks with heat. Never leave a lit candle unattended.
How do I reuse it?
Once it has cooled, lift out the used wick with the little crust of wax around it, top up with fresh sand and add a new wick.
How much do I need?
500g fills a standard tumbler. 2kg fills four tumblers or a medium multi-wick bowl. 4.5kg is for a big dish or a whole table.
How much is shipping?
We ship from Australia with Australia Post. Standard delivery takes 2–6 business days and is free on orders over $89. Under that it's $12, or $18 for Express (1–3 business days).
