Liturgical Color Profile and Wreath Fitting
Our Advent candle sets feature traditional liturgical shades: deep Violet/Purple representing hope, peace, and love, paired with Rose/Pink representing joy (Gaudete Sunday). The vibrant, smooth-finish colors create a meaningful centerpiece for the Christmas countdown.
Securing Advent Tapers in Wreaths & Holders
The base is shaped to fit standard 7/8-inch candle sockets and metal wreath rings. If your socket or ring runs wide and the stick feels loose, trim a small wax shaving at the bottom edge or place a drop of warm wax in the base to anchor it straight upright.
Clean Burn Behavior and Care
Follow these guidelines to prevent wax runs and protect your Advent wreath:
- Eliminate Drafts: Paraffin wax burns dripless only in calm air. Air movement from open doors, ceiling fans, or vents tilts the flame, breaking the outer wax wall and causing wax to run down the stick onto greenery or surfaces.
- Trim Wick before Lighting: Keep the cotton wick trimmed to 1/4 inch before lighting to maintain a small, steady flame.
- Store Flat Below 70°F: Keep unused tapers flat in a cool room below 70°F (21°C) to prevent softening or leaning before use.
