The Beginning

What is Pretty Flames?

The trendy, inventive ideas behind candle making has come a long way, and just when you think it’s about to end, something new arises. Our business goal at Pretty Flames is to elaborate on candle customization and further explore new ideas and unique creations. Pretty Flames wants to “Carry the torch and light the way” in the candle making industry.

Being a major candle fan myself, I’ve tried every candle type imaginable. Starting from tea lights, to decorative candles, then to aromatherapy; I enjoyed them all. I began using candles for every purpose in life; decoration, relaxation and even to reduce stress. As my love and inspiration for candles deepened over time, I thought about how I could make candles even more interesting. With a bit of research, I realized there are websites and retail stores out there that sell tons of candles, but none that offered the unique ability of being able to pick your own candle features. So, I created a game plan on how I could change the candle industry. What would I need to include in my business to be different than all the rest? After much debate, I thought of candle customization. Customization gives you the opportunity to create something new that’s unique just for you. You can choose which type of candle you’d like to design for all special occasions, whether it’s birthdays, anniversaries, weddings or even for daily use. You can browse the store and explore the scents and decorations we have to offer. Once you’ve made selections, submit your order, and we’ll make it and send it to you! Some examples of customization’s include:

• A preference of wax to choose from, whether it be paraffin wax, soy wax, beeswax, etc.
• Choice of essential oils you’d like your candle to have, and wick choice.
• Pick your candle colour; solid or variation. Colour effects such as swirl, marble or even colour changing wax as it burns.
• Engravings or stencils applied with heat; popular for weddings. (There’s a promotional wedding package discount if you order a certain number of candles)
• Pick from a variety of pressed flower petals to have infused throughout the wax of your candle.
• Seasonal favorites add-ons; special options to incorporate into your candle for different holidays. Rose petals for Valentine’s Day, dried spiced herbs for Christmas, etc.
