THE MAURA PETERS CANDLE IS A LABOR OF LOVE. THE CANDLES ARE BLENDED AND HAND POURED INTO BLOWN GLASS VASES IN HER STUDIO. THE BURN POOL IS LARGE AND EVEN, THE WAX BURNS CLEANLY, AND THE BLOWN GLASS VASES ARE INTENDED TO BE KEPT AND ENJOYED. ONCE YOU HAVE BURNED THROUGH YOUR CANDLE, SIMPLY PLACE THE VASE IN THE FREEZER. ONCE IT IS COLD ENOUGH, THE WAX WILL RELEASE FROM THE GLASS. CLEAN THE VASE WITH DISH SOAP AND ENJOY AS YOU LIKE... PEONIES ARE NICE
