Behind that fence is either the best friend they have not met yet or a man with a leaf blower and no sense of time. Most housewarming candles play it safe. This one says what every new homeowner is privately thinking: "Happy New Home Hope Your Neighbors Aren't Weirdos."

The signature white jar suits a house that is still half decided, and 100% natural soy wax gives it 60+ hours to work. Closing day, a cross-town move, a first house.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What do you give someone on closing day for their first house?
A: Something for the house lands better than something for the person, which is why a candle is the standard closing day gift. This one is a 13.5 oz jar in Bamboo Forest.

Q: What does Bamboo Forest actually smell like?
A: Bamboo Forest is bamboo, cypress and cedar — green, woody and clean rather than sweet or floral. It suits people who claim they do not like scented things.

Q: Will one candle scent an entire living room?
A: A 13.5 oz jar with a cotton wick scents an average living room once the melted wax reaches the edge of the glass. Give it two to three hours on the first light.

Q: Does a white jar candle fit any decor style?
A: The signature white jar is plain glass with a clean printed front, so it sits as easily on a modern mantel as on a farmhouse shelf. Nothing about it shouts for attention until someone reads it.

Q: Are these candles hand poured in small batches?
A: Yes. Every Cedar Crate candle is poured by hand in small batches in Minnetonka, Minnesota, rather than run off a production line.

Q: How do I stop a candle from tunneling in the middle?
A: Trim the wick to 1/4" before every light and give the first burn long enough to melt the wax all the way to the glass. Skipping that first long burn is what causes a tunnel.
