Add a sculptural element to tablescapes with these handcrafted paraffin wax tapers. This gift-ready boxed set comes in two neutral-perfect colors to choose from. A staple for dinner parties and everyday entertaining, tapers can also bring an element of mindfulness to daily meditations, yoga practices, or evening bubble baths. Candle burning tip. Did you know that putting your candle in the freezer for a few hours before burning it will make the wax harder, allowing it to burn slower? If you know that you and your bathtub have plans together that night and your candle plans on joining you, put it in the freezer that afternoon, and it'll be ready for you by the time you're ready to relax!
