pear shaped 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.

The pear-shaped candle is Monica's freshest creation, in many ways. It is designed for the bounty season and with the bounty season in mind. Each piece is made of pure beeswax with a few drops of mineral pigments for some of the shades. Each candle burns for about 10 hours. Trim the wick (to about 0.7cm) if you would like the candle to burn slowly and 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.
