Making our Candles Part 4

Packing

Just a note on the care and time that goes into packing our candles.
Candles are very delicate and bruise very easily. Because the majority of our candles are sent via post or courier they can take a bit of a bashing so I wrap and package them so carefully.

Firstly with some polystyrene foam.

 Then with some small bubble wrap.



2nd layer - small bubble wrap

 Then with some large bubble wrap.



3rd layer - large bubble wrap

Sometimes they are packed in boxes like this but sometimes a layer of corrugated card is added before sealing in a plastic mailing bag.

Having taken such care making the candles the last thing we want is for them to arrive damaged, so this is an important part of the process. We don't make any profit from package and postage and are happy to receive glowing comments about the condition of the candles when they arrive at their destinations.

So that's it. Amopther time I will show you how we make some of our scented / aromatherapy candles.
