This candle was designed to honor the life of Julia "Gia" Suhajda, who died by suicide on St. Patrick's Day, 2018. Gia spread kindness by caring for her friends, encouraging and including people who felt alone, and sharing her smile to light up the space around her. We all wish we could have let her know how much she meant to us and how much better our world was with her in it.

It is okay to not be okay, and help is available. If you or someone you know is struggling, please ask for help, or text or call 988, the Suicide and Crisis Lifeline. Your life matters and you are worth it.

A portion of the proceeds from the sale of each candle is donated to the American Foundation for Suicide Prevention (afsp.org). We encourage you to visit www.bekindlikegia.com to learn more.

Check your Wick – Your candle arrives already trimmed to the ideal burn height. Continue to trim the cotton wick to 1/4 inch with a wick trimmer before lighting. 

First Time Burn – The first time you light a new candle, let it burn for 3-4 hours until the pool of wax reaches the edge of the vessel. If not properly burned, there is a risk of tunneling down the center of the candle and missing out on hours of enjoyable scent.

Length of Burn – Do not burn your candle for more than 4 hours at a time as this will cause carbon to collect on the wick and the end of your wick will mushroom.

Stay Even and Draft-Free – Burn your candle on an even  fire resistant surface and stay away from drafts. The breeze will cause your candle wick to create smoke and at times, soot.

Stop Burn –When your candle burns down to less than 1/4 inch, stop using for safety reasons.

Upcycle the Vessel – Use your creativity to repurpose these vessels when you are done burning! 

Aroma components like citrus oils, cinnamon oil, and vanillin in fragrance oils can cause the color of the interior of the vessel to change.  

Wax Melts – Wax melts should only be used in an appropriate wax melt burner. We recommend a 25 watt wax warmer. Follow instructions from the manufacturer of your wax warmer. Add a single piece of the wax melt at a time until the required melted wax fill is reached. Do not overfill. DO NOT pour hot wax down the sink. Keep your wax melts in a cool dry place. 

To remove your wax, melt slightly and gently push the hard wax out of your burner. Using a tissue to scoop up the wax, dispose of the contents.
