The Berry Holiday Candle That Lurks in the Shadows

Not a creature was stirring—or so they thought.

This haunting berry holiday candle captures the unsettling beauty of a winter night when the air is thick with pine and secrets. Notes of balsam and juniper whisper through the dark while cranberry and blackberry bleed their crimson sweetness into the cold. A breath of eucalyptus drifts like frost through the room.

Each flicker of its crackling wood wick seems to make the shadows bounce. Inside the box lies a chilling short story of unlucky Santa Claus and the horrors that awaited him in a quiet house on the block.

How to use a wooden wick

Wood wicks need a quick trim after every burn. If your candle struggles to stay lit, the wick is likely too charred. Gently remove the burnt wood with a wick trimmer, nail clippers, or even by pinching it off with a tissue. This keeps your flame steady and bright for your next light.

Candle Care

Trim Before Lighting:

Before each burn, make sure to trim your wood wick to about ¼ inch. Remove the charred wood from your previous use with a wick trimmer or simply pinch it off. A wick that’s too long or coated in ash can cause the candle to go out too quickly.

First Burn Tips:

Give your candle time to melt evenly across the surface—usually between 2 to 4 hours on the first burn. Avoid burning for longer than 4 hours at once to preserve both scent and safety.

Candle Safety:

Always burn your candle where you can see it. Keep away from open drafts, curious pets, and flammable materials. Never leave a burning candle unattended.

Shelf Life:

For the best scent throw and performance, enjoy your candle within 2 years of purchase.
