Hidden Message Concrete Candle – Personalized Soy Wax Candle with Secret Text Reveal & Wood Wick
Details
The perfect gift for someone who loves surprises. On the outside, it looks like a sleek, ribbed concrete candle—but as the wax melts, your custom "secret message" slowly appears at the bottom. It’s a thoughtful, interactive way to say "I love you" or "Happy Birthday" or even share an inside joke. Plus, the wood wick adds a cozy crackling sound to the experience.
How to Personalize:
- Place your order.
- Send us a message with the custom text you want hidden inside.
- We’ll craft your one-of-a-kind candle.
The Specs:
- Wax: 100% Natural Soy Wax (Clean & Vegan).
- The Surprise: A personalized message revealed only after 1-2 hours of burning.
- Vessel: Stylish ribbed concrete planter (reusable as a succulent pot).
- Wick: Natural Wood Wick (Crackling sound).
- Size: Approx. 3.1" W x 1.5" H.
How to burn it safely:
- Wait for the reveal: It takes a bit of time for the wax to become transparent enough to see the message. Don't poke at the wax while it's melting!
- Trim the wood: Keep the wood wick trimmed to about 1/8” (3 mm) before lighting.
- The first burn: Let the wax melt to the edges of the concrete vessel to ensure an even reveal of your message.
- Safety first: Concrete can hold heat well. Burn on a heat-resistant surface and keep away from flammable objects, kids, and pets.

3. Delivery Estimates

4. The "Summer Melt" Policy
Soy wax is natural and has a lower melting point than paraffin. During hot summer months, soy candles can "sweat" or soften if left in a hot mailbox or on a porch for too long.
- Pro Tip: Please try to retrieve your package as soon as it arrives.
- If your candle feels soft, let it sit at room temperature for a few hours before lighting. This is a natural characteristic of eco-friendly wax and does not affect the scent or quality!
5. Tracking Your Magic
The moment your candles are on their way, you will receive a shipping confirmation email with a tracking number. You can track the order directly from the carrier's website.

4. Refunds
Once your return is received and inspected, we will send you an email to notify you. If approved, your refund will be processed, and a credit will automatically be applied to your original method of payment account within 3-5 business days.
5. Scent Disclaimer
Choosing scents online can be tricky! While we do our best to describe our fragrances accurately, everyone’s nose is a little different. We do not offer refunds if you simply don't "like" the scent after the candle has been lit.
- Pro Tip: If you’re unsure, start with our 4 oz jars before committing to a larger centerpiece!
