Good Online Source For All-Natural Candles?
Good Question

darhma-candles.jpgQ: I love candles (and I agree they are a good way to keep warm in the winter!), but I recently read about how they can be full of chemicals which get into the air when you burn them. So, I would like to buy some all-natural candles, and just wondering if someone can recommend an online source, especially for tealights? And are beeswax or soy candles better?

Wayoutwax.com sells lots of soy candles scented with essential oils. Also,I love the beeswax candles available at: bigdipperwaxworks.com. They're also selling a good selection at Whole Foods. Enjoy!

Fair Field Farm Candles offers handmade, all-natural soy candles with amazing scents--and at a fraction of the cost of other soy candle suppliers ($7-$11 for handmade candles in beautiful glass tureen jars). My fave scents are pineapple cilantro, cranberry spice, and red currant.
