Beeswax advent candle - hand-dipped

BISTAD

BIS-20251


A classic beeswax advent candle
For many families, an advent candle is part of December. Each day, the candle burns down to the next number, creating a small, fixed moment in a busy time – at the breakfast table, when the children come home, or when the candles are lit in the evening.

This advent candle is slim and classic in shape with clear numbers from 1 to 24, and the golden colour of the beeswax suits both a simple Nordic table setting and a home full of Christmas decorations.

Danish beeswax from "Den Grønne Pulje"
The candle is made of pure beeswax collected from local beehives across Central Jutland, and the wax comes from "Den Grønne Pulje" (the Green Pool). Beeswax is the wax the bees use to build their honeycombs, and it is harvested together with the honey. The wax is firm and dense, so the candle holds its shape and burns calmly, and the natural colour may vary slightly from candle to candle.

Hand-dipped in Aarhus by BISTAD
The advent candle is hand-dipped by BISTAD in Aarhus. The wick is dipped again and again in melted beeswax until the candle has the right thickness, which gives it the slightly tapered shape you can see in the picture.

BISTAD is a social enterprise where the candles are made, among others, by people facing difficult life circumstances, and where there is always room for the imperfect – something we at the Okofamily are proud to support. Because the candles are handmade, there may be small variations from candle to candle. This has no effect on how the candle burns.

How to get the best burn from your advent candle
 

  • Trim the wick to approx. 5 mm before lighting. This keeps the flame calm and reduces soot.
  • Place the candle away from draughts so the flame stays still and the candle does not drip.
  • Put the candle out just before the next number, so the number is still easy to read the next day.
  • If a piece of wick falls into the melted wax, remove it once the candle is out and has cooled down.


Candle safety
 

  • Never leave a burning candle unattended, and put it out when you go to bed or leave the house.
  • Place the candle in a stable candle holder where children and pets cannot knock it over.
  • Keep it well away from curtains, Christmas decorations and anything else flammable.
  • Do not use lit candles in children's bedrooms.
  • Smother the flame instead of blowing the candle out, for example with a candle snuffer.

Beeswax advent candle - Pillar

BISTAD

BIS-20268


A sturdy beeswax advent candle
For many families, an advent candle is part of December. Each day, the candle burns down to the next number, creating a small, fixed moment in a busy time – at the breakfast table, when the children come home, or when the candles are lit in the evening.

This advent candle is thicker than a classic advent candle and shaped like a pillar candle. It stands steadily on its own and is perfect as the centrepiece of a Christmas arrangement with fir branches, pine cones and berries. The numbers from 1 to 24 are clear, and the golden colour of the beeswax suits both a simple Nordic table setting and a home full of Christmas decorations.

Danish beeswax from "Den Grønne Pulje"
The candle is made of pure beeswax collected from local beehives across Central Jutland, and the wax comes from "Den Grønne Pulje" (the Green Pool). Beeswax is the wax the bees use to build their honeycombs, and it is harvested together with the honey. The wax is firm and dense, so the pillar candle holds its shape and burns calmly, and the natural colour may vary slightly from candle to candle.

Hand-cast in Aarhus by BISTAD
The advent candle is cast by hand at BISTAD in Aarhus. The melted beeswax is poured into a mould around the wick, and once the wax has set, the numbers 1 to 24 are printed on.

BISTAD is a social enterprise where the candles are made, among others, by people facing difficult life circumstances, and where there is always room for the imperfect – something we at the Okofamily are proud to support. Because the candles are handmade, there may be small variations from candle to candle. This has no effect on how the candle burns.

How to get the best burn from your advent candle
 

  • Trim the wick to approx. 5 mm before lighting. This keeps the flame calm and reduces soot.
  • Place the candle away from draughts so the flame stays still and the wax melts evenly.
  • Put the candle out just before the next number, so the number is still easy to read the next day.
  • If the candle burns a hole in the centre, gently press the soft edge in towards the middle while the wax is still warm.
  • If a piece of wick falls into the melted wax, remove it once the candle is out and has cooled down.


Candle safety
 

  • Never leave a burning candle unattended, and put it out when you go to bed or leave the house.
  • Place the candle on a stable, heat-resistant surface where children and pets cannot knock it over.
  • Keep it well away from curtains, Christmas decorations and anything else flammable – including branches and pine cones in a centrepiece.
  • Do not use lit candles in children's bedrooms.
  • Smother the flame instead of blowing the candle out, for example with a candle snuffer.

Jigsaw Puzzle Advent Calendar - Skate & Coffee

Jigsaw Puzzle Advent Calendar - Skate & Coffee

ViSSEVASSE

VIV-02095


A Christmas mood you build piece by piece
Something happens to a city in December. The lights go up, the squares fill, and the ice rink becomes the place everyone gathers. Some glide effortlessly across the ice; others cling to each other and laugh their way through the first lap.

Skate & Coffee captures exactly that: cold cheeks, warm cups and small moments in the middle of the rush.

How the calendar works
The calendar contains 1,000 pieces divided across 24 small boxes, numbered 1 to 24 so you always know which pieces belong to the day.

Each day you open one box and complete a new section. As the days pass the illustration grows, and by Christmas Eve the full picture is finished in front of you.

It's a different way of counting down. Instead of 24 things to unwrap and put away again, you get 24 small pauses together. Fifteen minutes at the table with the phone face down.

Put it away, bring it back next December

Every piece is numbered on the reverse, so they sort easily back into the right boxes once Christmas is over. The calendar can be packed up, stored and used again next year — or passed on to someone starting their own tradition.

Size and details

 

  • 1,000 pieces in 24 numbered boxes
  • Finished puzzle: 63 x 45 cm
  • Box: 31.5 x 22 x 5 cm
  • Illustration: Skate & Coffee, designed by ViSSEVASSE
  • Warning: contains small parts. Not suitable for children under 3 years.

  • Finally, you cut the wick so that it is approx. 1 cm. where the light is.
  • The wick should burn up by itself, but if a small piece falls off and lands in the light, it reduces the quality of the fire.

Also, pay attention to the fire authorities' instructions for burning candles:

  • Never leave a lighted candles.
  • Always place lit candles so that children and animals cannot knock them over.
  • Always supervise candles.
  • Always turn off candles when you go to bed or leave the home.
  • Calves must be placed well away from fluttering curtains.
  • Never have candles in children's rooms.
  • Candles (especially tealights) can float out and begin to burn
  • Do not blow out light, but smother the flame. For example with a pot that is placed over the candle(s) with the bottom in the air.

NABBI Biobeads Christmas calendar - 24 designs

NABBI Biobeads

NAB-93144


Let the joy spread

Tube beads are always a hit – also at Christmas time. With the Christmas calendar, the children can see which Christmas motif is hidden behind today's door – and then they can start creating with the beads. It's a super fun tradition for the little ones in the family, who can look forward to opening the 24 doors of the Christmas calendar in December. Afterwards, you can string the pearl motifs together and hang them on the Christmas tree or in the windows. If you need more bead fun, you can always buy extra beads and reuse patterns.

What are Biobeads?

NABBI BioBeads are made from the material, Biodolomer® – and are biodegradable tubular beads. Just like with ordinary pipe beads, you can make many beautiful Christmas motifs with them. If you choose to iron NABBI BioBeads, remember to put baking paper between the iron and the beads. Then move the iron in circular motions and gently iron with light pressure until the pearls have fused together.

Rapeseed Tealight in Steel Holder - 1 pc

Care Candle

CAC-20367


A cleaner indoor climate with rapeseed wax
When live candles burn, particles are emitted into the air. Tests and experiences show that candles cast from rapeseed wax belong among the absolute least particle-polluting light sources on the market. This makes them an obvious choice for consumers who wish to minimize soot in the home, but still desire the atmosphere that live candles create.

Rapeseed wax additionally has the property that it typically burns slower and thus longer than many other wax types.

Practical application and cleaning

Rapeseed wax is a soft material with a low melting point, making it extremely easy to handle in case of spills.

Unlike stearin, which can be difficult to remove from a tablecloth or tabletop, spilled rapeseed wax can easily be wiped up.

Cleaning

Wring out a cloth in warm water and wipe the wax away. There is rarely a need to scrape or freeze the material off.

Social-economic production

Care Candle produces their candles in a social-economic workshop. This means that when you buy this product, you support a workplace that creates a framework for people who, for various reasons, stand outside the ordinary labor market.
