Amish Old Christmas | 16 oz. Natural Soy Farmhouse Candle

You will quickly notice that the heart of this premium soy candle’s refreshing scent is the Amish tradition of baking a delicious assortment of cranberry treats during the celebration of Old Christmas. Old Christmas comes to the Amish community on January 6th of each year (12 days after Christmas and when the Three Wise Men came to Bethlehem to see the baby Jesus). On this special day, the Amish will fast until noon and then celebrate with a hearty meal in the afternoon. By the time family and friends have gathered in the Amish family’s warm and inviting living area, the women will have been up since early that morning to bake the delicious dishes and sweets for everyone to enjoy. In addition to the smell of cranberry, you will also notice the unmistakably sweet and surgery scents that are coming from the warm pies and cakes that have been prepared and are on display.

Premium Soy Farmhouse Candle:
This 16-ounce, 100% natural soy candle is hand-poured in small batches in the kitchen of the Bontrager family in our local Amish community located on the border between Iowa and Missouri. The Bontragers are known for their great-smelling and long-burning candles. This all-natural candle features premium soy wax from soybeans harvested here in the Midwest of the United States. The wick in this candle is 100% cotton and is designed to promote self-trimming while the candle is burned to provide a clean and consistent flame. Premium fragrance and essential oil blends are carefully blended into each candle to supply a robust scent throw throughout the life of the farmhouse candle (approximately 70 hours). The fact that this farmhouse candle is crafted without a jar label gives it a minimalistic feel, while its natural beauty will add a warm rustic look to your home. This premium soy wax candle is handcrafted by an Old-Order Amish family in the Heartland of the USA and comes with Free Shipping to anywhere in the contiguous United States. Note: Please do not leave burning candles unattended, and keep them out of the reach of children.
