mademoiselle candle

Monica, the founder of Mo Candles and More, loves to create. She is just as much a candle-maker as she is a photographer. In a sense, the two go hand in hand as she works to bring nature and evoke emotions through her work. Her candles are hand-dipped and she collects her beeswax from local bee farmers. Monica is based in Bucharest, Romania, and she dreams of one day having a small farm where she could raise chickens.

Mademoiselle is a tall, slim candle with a similar elegance as her shorter sisters, the domnita candle and the dolofana candle. Specifically, it measures 29 cm in length and 1 cm in diameter. It will burn peacefully and beautifully. The Madmoiselle is small in diameter and will need a special setup. Either a hodler with a jag/needle at its center or a deeb bowl filled with sand to support its weight. If you are feeling adventurous, you may always melt a bit of wax at its bottom and attach it to a plate you like (but make sure to attend to it so it does not surprise you with a topple). This candle was produced through hand-dipping and is meant as a simple pleasure for everyday living. Do not leave the burning candle in a drafty spot where it can burn unevenly (and is also a hazard). Collect any leftover wax and reuse it to make playful candles or in other home-crafts.

Please practice fire safety, and never leave a burning candle unattended.
