Candle Wax Before Melting

About Us

Welcome to Blackthorn Candles!

​

Thank you for stopping by.

​

My name is James & I run my small Irish business from right in the heart of Galway, a city known for its creativity, crafts & culture! 

​

Hand pouring candles & wax melts in small batches, I pride myself on using natural soy wax in my products, accompanied by the finest blends of fragrance oil, all sourced from Irish businesses.

​

I am best known for candle making workshops, but you can also find me in local markets such as the Tiny Traders Village and I have done Galway & Clare Pride Markets.

​

Every candle is made by me, packaged by me & posted by me. Even the candle labels & this website are designed by me! So every single order really does mean the world!

​​

You can sit back and relax knowing you are in good hands. After all, that's what candles are for - to make you feel cosy & relaxed.

​

How To Care For Your Candles!

Trim the wick to 1/4 " tall before every burn to keep the wax clean and burning nicely.

​

Allow candle to melt to the edge of the vessel, this prevents future tunneling.

 

Burn on a stable, heat-resistant surface away from flammable objects.

​

Avoid excessive burn time, no more than 4 hours is recommended.

​

Never leave a burning candle unattended.

​

Keep out of reach of pets and children.
