About Us
How Expressive Candles came to be...
I have always been a "crafty" and creative person. From weekend craft
sessions with Mom to a degree in Music Therapy. It began when I was very
young and I received a "candle-making kit" for my birthday. Since then
I have been intrigued and captivated by their beauty and elegance. As
a candle lover I began to purchase scented candles and I was always disappointed
in the scent throw and burn quality that I got from store bought scented
candles. So I decided to make my own. I began to develop a special wax
blend that allowed my scented candles to burn perfectly and have a maximum
scent throw throughout the entire burning life.
Expressive Candles is a small family owned business. While my Husband
handles the logistics of the business such as the web site and sales,
I design and make the products. Together we strive to bring the best candles
to our customers and strive for great customer service.
What Does Expressive Candles Mean?
Our name, Expressive Candles, was chosen for several reasons. Candle-making
is a craft, an art and a science. When I first began making scented candles
it was another way for me to express myself through color and fragrance.
I could express and convey my mood with the different scent and color
I chose. Then I began giving the scented candles I made as gifts to family
and friends and realized the gift giving aspect expressed many things
as well. At times it has expressed sorrow for a lost loved-one. They have
expressed the joy and happiness of a marriage or the birth of a new loved-one.
I have also given candles as a simple "Thank-you" or "Just-Because" gift.
The list just goes on and on! I sincerely hope you can find that perfect
scented
candles for your gift-giving needs!

Shipping
Our scented candles are shipped using United States Postal Service because
their shipping fees are cheaper and their delivery time is within 2-3
days from shipment date. Our candles orders usually take 3-9 days to fill,
and then they will be shipped using Priority 2-3 day mail and insured,
unless otherwise noted. Our orders are typically shipped out in the beginning
of the week to make sure your candles are not being held over the weekend
at a hot post office warehouse. This helps with not delaying the delivery
and keeping your candles in good condition.
Shipping Fees:
Shipping is priced according to weight. During Checkout, your shipping price will be listed in your shopping cart checkout.

Testimonials
Hello,
I HAD to write to praise you on your teddy bear tarts. I have never had
a tart keep it's scent through the whole burning process like these do.
My sister was just commenting on how she loves to burn tarts but the ones
she buys from Hallmark loose their scent after the second burning and
she has to throw the wax away. When I received these tarts...I put three
in the tart burner, they have gone through 3 tea lights and they still
smell wonderful. I will surely recommend your tarts to whom ever asks
about the ones I have. I just wanted you to know how pleased I am with
my e-bay purchase from you. Thank you so much. I WILL be buying again.
Have a Great Labor Day Weekend.
Carole
