My wife and I have been making candles for our church for the past 4 years and have felt led to "take it a step further." Over the past few months, we have created a fully functional candle shop at our house. After doing a lot of research this past year we realize that many stores and on-line companies only offer certain candles (e.g. they either specialize in soy or paraffin candles).
All of the candles at Oliver Fritz Candles (OFC) are handcrafted and hand-poured. Still, the options are nearly limitless as we offer so many options for wax, containers, colors, and fragrances.
Wax:
- We offer candles in both soy and paraffin wax.
- Soy wax is a more natural product with a creamier, opaque color.
- Paraffin is a man-made wax that has a more translucent color and usually “throws” scents better.
Containers:
- We offer both pillar and container candles.
- Pillar candles are 3” in diameter and can be made 4”, 6” and 9” tall.
- Container candles are available in many different sizes from 4oz to 17oz.
- Container candles also come in a variety of styles—from rustic to modern to elegant.
Colors
- OFC carries every color available through our current 4 supplies and the colors can be blended, so the color options we provide are nearly endless!
Fragrances
- We currently have about 300 different fragrances available, so we can create the perfect candle for you—even if it is an unusual request.
- These scents fall into the following categories: Fruity, Flowery, Nutty, Spicy, Earthy, Rugged, Fresh, Clean, and Seasonal
- Many of the top selling fragrance are kept in stock, allowing for a short turn-around time.
- We can also create all-natural, unscented candles for individuals with allergies or fragrance sensitivities.
OFC strives to be your candle shop for every occasion--whether at home, work, or church. Because we are a service based candle company and we work directly with the customers, we can create candles specific to your preferences and color palette. Case in point— we recently had a customer request a Dirt candle (thus named “Oliver’s Dirty Little Candle”), and it truly smells just like a fresh tilled garden bed after the rain.
On this page you will find photos of different candles and candle melts that we currently have in stock for immediate delivery. These are just a few of the current of the hundreds of options available to you. Let us know what you are interested in and we will find the perfect candle for you!
Likewise, we have learned about candles through this journey and will be sending out helpful tips on this FB page. These tips will help you decide which options are right for you, help extend the life of your candles and ensure each candle fills your life with delight.
