I was at a pop-up market recently for Scented Designs Candle Co, selling our hand-poured soy candles and talking with customers about all things candles. One question that came up is, Are Soy Candles Toxic?

I've often heard the questions, Why soy candles? or Are soy candles better? but I'd never heard this question phrased quite this way, and it struck me as a really important question to answer, not just for that customer but for all Scented Designs customers and candle lovers out there. 

So, in this blog post, let's dive deeper into the question: Is Soy Wax Toxic?

Who doesn't love a good candle and the power of a single (or multiple!) flame?Candles have been a staple of homes for centuries, providing warmth, light, and ambiance. Today, candles can bring all of those into your home while also transforming your space through aroma.

However, it's important to note that not all candles are created equal and some are even toxic to your health.

So, what are some of the toxins that you should avoid in candles? Some of the most common culprits are paraffin wax, fragrances with phthalates, and lead wicks.

Are you a retail business looking for high-quality, eco-friendly candles to sell in your store?

Every year, on the Sunday after Labor Day, Grandparents Day is celebrated in the United States. As the story goes, the holiday was first suggested to President Nixon in 1969 in a 

letter written by a 9-year child advocating for a day to celebrate Grandparents. 

Officially, Grandparents Day was proclaimed to be a national holiday by President Carter in 1978. 

For Grandparents Day 2022, celebrated this year on Sunday, September 11th, we've put together this list of 3 candles that would make perfect gifts for Grandparents Day.
