THE ECO-FRIENDLY CHOICE
Every KICA candle is hand-poured using natural soy wax. The tins and jars are upcycled. The paint is chalk paint so it’s kind to the environment. The finishings are all natural, biodegradable materials.
HANDMADE
Everything at KICA is carefully crafted by hand in Bedfordshire. Every single piece receives the same care and attention. Designs and scents can vary throughout the year, as seasons change and I experiment with new ideas. It keeps things fresh and interesting.
MEET THE MAKER
At the beginning of 2018 my husband set me a New Year’s resolution to get a new hobby. He knows I’m a creative sort and would relish the chance to try something new. I can’t honestly remember how I settled on the idea of candle-making, but a spark of inspiration found me and shortly after I had a little kitchen table production line on the go. My big idea: to put natural wax candles into upcycled food tins. And so, KICA was born.
