Glacier Mountain Candle Company are eco-friendly candles that provide a “breath of fresh air”, candle
These Natural Soy and Coconut wax candles are hand poured with products produced in the United States. There are almost 40 different scents available – all made to order. I HIGHLY recommend these amazing candles – great for you or for a gift! They recommend that the candles be allowed to burn for at least 4 hours on the initial lighting to prevent the “tunneling effect.”  Keep the wick ¼” at all times, including when re-lit to minimize soot. Since soy coconut wax has a low melt temperature, it is recommended that the candles not be exposed to direct sunlight. The candles will burn approximately for 80-100 hours.
