Tip for getting the most out of your lantern.

Here are a few tips to get the best out of your lantern

Your lantern should be as beautiful as my pictures! I'm no professional photographer-just me and an iPhone-but here are a few tips to help you get the best possible glow:

Choosing the Perfect Candle

• A smaller candle works best so the wick sits just below the wood design. If its above, the light won't shine through.
• Everyday Favorites: I love affordable, plain white candles like IKEA's HEMSJÖ (for small/medium lanterns) or LÄTTNAD (for large). Standard tea lights work beautifully too!
• Using 3-Wick Candles: If you use a Bath & Body Works 3-wick candle, choose white wax with clear glass. They put a plastic wrapper on them.... I remove that for sure. The 3-wick candles fit the medium size lantern - 5"x5".

Clean & Glow Trick

I like to add a little salt or baking soda into the base of the lantern. Not only does it catch any stray wax drips for easy cleanup, but it also reflects the light upward beautifully. (Just be sure to avoid flammable alternatives like flour or sugar!)

I want you to love your lantern! Please message me directly through the contact page, or even instagram  if you have any questions at all.
