Our Crafting Process - Exclusiveyrstudi Handmade Candles

Crafted With Intention

At Exclusiveyrstudi, we believe that the energy put into creating something beautiful can be felt by those who experience it. Our candle-making process is a meditation in itself—a careful dance between science and art, precision and intuition.

Each candle passes through skilled hands multiple times, from the selection of ingredients to the final packaging. We work in small batches to ensure every vessel receives the attention and care it deserves.

Our Process

Step by step, from raw materials to finished candle

1

Sourcing Natural Ingredients

We begin with the finest natural soy wax, sourced from sustainable farms. Our essential oils are pure and therapeutic grade, carefully selected from trusted suppliers who share our commitment to quality and ethical practices. Each ingredient is chosen not just for its fragrance, but for its ability to create an atmosphere of wellbeing.

2

Melting and Blending

The soy wax is gently heated to a precise temperature, a process that requires patience and attention. Once melted to perfection, we carefully blend in our essential oils, measuring each drop with intention. The ratios are crucial—too much oil and the candle won't burn properly, too little and the scent won't carry. We've perfected these formulations through years of experimentation.

3

Preparing the Vessels

While the wax blend cools slightly, we prepare our glass vessels. Each container is cleaned and inspected for imperfections. We carefully position cotton wicks at the center, securing them with precision. The vessel becomes a canvas, ready to hold the aromatic art we're about to pour.

4

The Pour

This is where craft meets intuition. We pour the fragrant wax into vessels with a steady hand, watching as the liquid fills each container with its warm glow. The temperature must be just right—pour too hot and the glass might crack, pour too cool and the wax won't settle properly. It's a moment of focus and presence.

5

Curing and Testing

Patience is perhaps the most important ingredient. Each candle must cure for at least two weeks, allowing the essential oils to fully bind with the wax. During this time, we test burn samples from every batch, ensuring consistent quality, proper burn pool, and optimal scent throw. Only when a candle meets our exacting standards does it move forward.

6

Final Touches

The finished candles receive their labels, each one carefully applied by hand. We trim the wicks to the perfect length for first lighting. Every candle is inspected one final time before it's ready to find its home. This is where our creation becomes your companion in creating atmosphere and moment.

Why Natural Matters

We choose natural ingredients not just because they're better for the environment, but because they create a fundamentally different experience. Natural soy wax burns cleaner and longer than paraffin. Pure essential oils carry therapeutic properties that synthetic fragrances simply cannot replicate.

When you light an Exclusiveyrstudi candle, you're not just filling a room with scent—you're creating an atmosphere that supports your wellbeing. The gentle flicker of the flame, the warm glow, the natural fragrance... these elements work together to create moments of true presence.

This is the Exclusiveyrstudi difference: candles made with intention, crafted with care, and designed to elevate the everyday into something extraordinary.

Quality Assurance Process

Every candle meets our exacting standards

Visual Inspection

Each candle undergoes multiple visual inspections throughout the production process. We check for air bubbles, surface imperfections, wick placement, and overall aesthetic quality before any candle leaves our workshop.

Burn Testing

We perform comprehensive burn tests on every batch. This includes checking burn pool formation, wick performance, scent throw, and overall burn quality. Only batches that meet our standards proceed to packaging.

Final Approval

Every finished candle receives a final quality check before packaging. We verify label placement, vessel cleanliness, and overall presentation. This final step ensures you receive a product that meets our high standards.

The Art of Essential Oil Blending

Creating the perfect fragrance blend is both science and art. Our essential oils are carefully selected from trusted suppliers who share our commitment to purity and quality. Each oil undergoes rigorous testing to ensure it meets therapeutic-grade standards.

The blending process requires precise measurements and careful timing. We use specific ratios that have been developed through extensive testing, ensuring each candle delivers consistent fragrance and therapeutic benefits. Too much oil can affect burn quality, while too little diminishes the aromatherapy experience.

Our master blenders understand how different essential oils interact, creating harmonious scent profiles that evolve beautifully as they burn. This knowledge, combined with years of experience, allows us to craft fragrances that are both complex and balanced.

Our Workshop & Tools

Professional equipment for artisan-quality results

Professional-Grade Equipment

Our workshop is equipped with precision temperature-controlled melting pots that ensure consistent wax temperature throughout the pouring process. This consistency is crucial for achieving even burns and proper fragrance distribution.

We use digital scales for precise measurements, ensuring every batch maintains the exact same formula. Our wick centering tools guarantee perfect placement, which is essential for even burning from edge to edge.

Sustainable Packaging

Eco-friendly packaging that protects and preserves

Recyclable Materials

All our packaging materials are recyclable or compostable. We use minimal packaging to reduce waste while ensuring your candle arrives in perfect condition. Our boxes are made from recycled cardboard and can be recycled again after use.

Eco-Friendly Labels

Our labels are printed on recycled paper with soy-based inks. They're designed to be easily removable if you want to reuse the glass vessel, and they're completely biodegradable, leaving no trace behind.

Protective Wrapping

We use biodegradable bubble wrap alternatives made from recycled materials. This protective layer ensures your candle arrives safely while maintaining our commitment to environmental responsibility.

Thoughtful Presentation

Every package is carefully assembled by hand, ensuring your candle is presented beautifully whether it's for personal use or as a gift. We believe the unboxing experience should be as delightful as lighting the candle itself.

Why Small Batches Matter

We intentionally keep our batches small, typically producing 20-30 candles at a time. This approach allows us to maintain the highest quality standards and ensure each candle receives individual attention throughout the production process.

Small batch production means we can control every aspect of quality more carefully. Each candle is monitored during the curing process, and we can quickly identify and address any issues before they affect the entire batch.

This methodical approach also allows us to experiment and refine our techniques continuously. We're always learning and improving, which means every batch is better than the last. Your candle represents not just our current best work, but our commitment to continuous improvement.

The Curing Process

Patience creates perfection

The Two-Week Cure

After pouring, each candle must cure for a minimum of two weeks. This waiting period allows the essential oils to fully bind with the wax, ensuring optimal scent throw and burn performance.

During this time, the candle is stored in a temperature-controlled environment where it can settle and develop its full fragrance potential. We test burn samples from each batch during the cure period to ensure they meet our standards before release.
