Key features & specs

How it compares

Unlike standard candle kits that often utilize paraffin wax (a petroleum byproduct), this Grow and Make set uses renewable soy. While beeswax kits are common, this product provides a 100% vegan alternative that offers a cleaner, slower burn without the ethical concerns of animal-derived additives. It sits comfortably between budget plastic-heavy kits and professional-grade industrial equipment.

How to use it

1. Clean and dry the included glass jars before securing the cotton wicks to the bottom center.
2. Melt the soy wax flakes in a double boiler until they reach the recommended pouring temperature.
3. Stir in the plant-based fragrance oils slowly to ensure a consistent scent throw throughout the wax.
4. Carefully pour the liquid wax into the jars, leaving a half-inch of space at the top.
5. Allow the candles to cure for at least 24 hours in a cool, dry place before trimming the wicks.

Sustainability & ethics

Grow and Make sources all soy wax from domestic American farmers, reducing the carbon footprint associated with international shipping. The kit is entirely plastic-free, utilizing FSC-certified paper and glass containers that can be repurposed indefinitely once the candle is spent. The brand maintains a transparent supply chain with no animal testing at any stage of production.
