What happens when you combine the tranquil ambiance of a candle with the calming presence of a miniaturized, nature-inspired scene?

Terrarium Candle Gift

This candle arrived just as pictured, and it looks great! I ordered it as a gift for a friend who likes candles, but I wanted to change it up from the usual scented candles. It did not seem to take long to ship, and it was wrapped very well.

Love it

I loved this candle and bought it as a birthday present. It did originally arrive damaged (one of the cacti was broken in pieces) but I got a new one sent out expedited shipping and it arrived on time and was perfect. My sister loves it!
