These hand painted Christian baptism candles are made of 51% beeswax and feature symbolic artwork entirely created via traditional means with acrylic paint.
Many baptism candles purchased through supply companies for parish use include fairly simple artwork printed on stickers which will yellow/peel with time. These candles were created to be long lasting keepsakes making them the perfect godparent gift for infant baptism. Pair them with a small candle holder, and these aesthetic Catholic sacramental candles become not only a work of art, but also an ongoing reminder for the child/newly baptized individual of his/her place within God’s Church, and the subsequent baptismal call to spread the Gospel message throughout the world. When children in particular see their baptismal candles displayed in their homes, they can also look forward to the next time their candle will be lit on their First Communion.
INFORMATION:
*Includes one baptism taper candle (10.5” long x 0.75”thick)
*51% beeswax
*Includes rigid cardboard box lined with foam so candle can be stored securely and artwork can be protected for years to come
*Includes small sheet to list Child’s baptism name/date/parish/priest
*Candle specifically designed to keep the top 1.5 inches free of artwork, so art will not be burned during sacraments
*Candles designed to be lit only for a few minutes on the day of Baptism and First Communion. Artwork will be ruined if allowed to burn for longer times.
**IMPORTANT NOTE ON SUMMER SHIPPING: Please allow ample time for shipping in heat of summer. I may choose to delay shipment in cases of summer heat to prevent candles melting during transit. Check your email frequently (including spam) for tracking updates or delay. It is imperative that you do not let these candles sit on your front porch in the sun for too long, so plan accordingly. Though candles will be lined with a thermal insulated bubble wrap to help discourage melting, I can only do so much to prevent melting if packaged is allowed to sit on a hot doorstep for hours.
