Our refill service is a great way to extend the life of your empty candle containers. Some candle containers are elaborate and beautiful pieces, it's a shame to leave them empty after use! Why not refill them with an Emma's So Naturals soy wax & essential oil candle.

Eco Friendly. Natural Ingredients. Sustainable. Circular Economy.

You should only use your own empty containers and return them to us to refill. Containers bought from charity shops, etc, may have been dropped or damaged and the glass may crack with the heat of the new candle - please use original candle containers, in good condition only.

Refill any empty candle container with our eco-soy wax and choose from a selection of our Emma's So Naturals inspired, hand blended pure essential oil fragrances.

200 mls = 1 item, add another item to the cart for each 200mls - if you have any queries please email info@emmas.ie.

Candle refill pricing: Up to 200mls = €19.50, this reduces to €15.50 per 200mls when ordering 400mls or above. Up to 400mls = €31.00, up to 600mls = €46.50, up to 800mls = €62.00 and so on.

Simply measure the volume of your container(s) - and order the quantity of this refill product in multiples of 200mls. If your container is 450mls you will order 3 units (3 x 200mls = 600mls). If your container is 150mls you will need to order qty 1 (1 x 200mls).

The easiest way to measure the volume of your container(s) is to fill your cleaned-out container with water and then empty the water into an empty measuring jug. Note the volume in millimeters of where this water fills the jug to. Round the total up to the nearest 200mls.

If you have multiple containers to fill, you can measure the total volume of all of them together and order that many units. Please note that all the candles will be filled from the same batch of scented wax. If you desire an assortment of fragrances in separate containers, please complete separate orders for each fragrance.

We will fill the candles to about 1cm from the top of the container. We will estimate the correct wick size - usually this is no problem but ocassionally some wax may remail around the edge after lighting. Ensure you follow good candle burning practices, see below.

Your container must be completely cleaned out and free of all traces of the old candle. Any unclean containers sent to us will not be worked on and collection of these is the responsibility of the sender.

Send your clean container to us, carefully packaged, by post or courier. You can also hand deliver to us at any of our craft fairs. Our address will be included in the email you receive upon receipt of your order. Please include your order number within the parcel with your returned container. You can print out the order email and include it with your empty candle container when sending it to us, if you like.

Please allow up to 2 weeks for candles to be refilled. During peak production times (August, September, October, November & December) there may be longer delays or the service may be temporarily unavailable, we will advise you of any delays at the time.

1, 2, 3 and 4 wick candle containers are acceptable.

Unscented soy wax is also available.

Containers should be dishwasher & microwave safe, and only original candle containers, to ensure they will perform well as a candle and with the intense heat that a candle flame produces.

When placing an order please use an email address that is attended, as we may need to get in touch with you with any questions or should any issues arise.

Important information regarding your candles from Emma’s So Naturals.

• Trim your wick, the first time & every time you light the candle. Trim the wick to 5mm or ¼ inch with a scissors or wick trimming tool and remove the debris. Not trimming the candle wick can result in problems, such as black smoke or soot; it can cause the wick to fall over into the melted wax making it hard to re-light; it can cause a high flame that’s too big and might become dangerous.
• Trimming the wick too short can make it hard to re-light. If this does happen, try to light the wick for as long as it will stay lit and then carefully pour off the melted wax into a safe bin or container to dispose of. Repeat until the wick is long enough to stay lighting by itself.
• Never burn candles for more than 4 hours.
• The first time, allow the wax pool to melt close to the container edge to ensure a consistent burn pool as the candle burns down.
• Emma’s So Naturals use 100% soy wax with no wax additives for a cleaner burn. Natural wax behaves differently to paraffin wax in that it is longer burning and renewable, but it can vary in appearances and may be affected by temperatures in that it could shrink away from the container edge in spots or completely in cool weather and it may sweat or soften in warm temperatures.
• Emma’s So Naturals use only pure essential oils. Pure essential oils give a naturally delicate fragrance. This is the main reason we use pure essential oils in our collection, so as not to overpower the user with strong, synthetic perfume. Pure essential oils do contain allergens, which are listed in the Safety Data label at the bottom of the container, along with pictogram instructions for use. Never remove this label!
• Emma’s So Naturals encourage the re-use and recycling of your candle glasses and tins. It is for this reason that we don’t glue the metal wick sustainer to the bottom of the containers, as this makes it harder to clean out and to re-use or recycle them. As a result, the metal wick sustainer may move slightly out of the centre as the candle burns down. To remedy this, centre the wick after blowing the candle out, allow the wax to cool and reharden and then trim the wick, as usual, before the next use.

Burning & safety instructions for candle use:

• Trim wick to 5mm before use.
• Keep candle free of foreign materials including matches and wick trimmings.
• Always burn candles within sight, in a well-ventilated room, on a level, fire resistant surface and away from drafts, vibrations, children and animals.
• Do not burn for more than 4 hours at a time.
• Due to high content of natural essential oils, and fluctuating storage temperatures, occasionally some oils may leak to the top of the candle. Simply wipe these away and enjoy your candle as normal.
• Avoid skin contact with pure essential oils.

• Shelf Life:

  Generally, it is recommended that you use your candle within 12 to 18 months, once you open it from its original packaging, especially if it is a natural plant wax, however you can expect a stable and attractive shelf life of around 3 years if stored correctly. Essential oils themselves can have a shelf life of up to 15 years when unopened, however, oxidisation and deterioration of their fragrance can begin as soon as opened. Store your candles in a cool dark place when not in use. Store out of direct sunlight.
