Perhaps those dainty teacups that've been sitting in storage for who knows how long once belonged to a loved one--or maybe you acquired them at a different phase in life and no longer have use for them. Well, we have just the thing to inspire you to take your pretty pieces of porcelain out of storage and into the light!

Introducing Teacup Candles Made from your own China! 

In partnership with our friends Glow to Grow, a Brooklyn-based, eco-conscious candle company, we can now transform your teacups, coffee mugs, and even gravy boats and sugar bowls into delightful, eco-friendly scented candles to enjoy in any room of your home. They also make heartwarming (& melting) gifts that loved ones can enjoy year-round.😉
