Dawn and Laurie also make hand-poured, all-natural, soy wax candles in a wide variety of fragrances that can be burned without hesitation because they do not emit the high levels of soot and carcinogens that petroleum-based candles can. Striving to use whimsical themes and all natural products, this team is pleased to offer creations that do not pollute (literally and visually) your living space. |
