I'm Brynn Romeo, the owner of Hibougie, a small candle business operated out of the kitchen in my house. I individually hand make 100% soybean wax candles; which means each candle has a little bit of my love poured into it! A couple years ago while on vacation, I bought a candle in a teacup as a gift for a friend. I've always loved vintage teacups and also candles and the idea of making these litt
le gems really intrigued me. After much research and planning, I was able to find the perfect wax to use so as not to damage the cups. Since then it's been a lot of experimenting, trial and error and tweaking of my methods to perfect the final outcome. Not only did I find a wax that wouldn't harm the beautiful details of these delicate cups, it's also biodegradable, non-toxic and all natural (what a bonus!). Other advantages include: melting at a lower temperature (it's safer around children and pets), burns longer, cooler and cleaner than a candle made of paraffin would and it's composed of a renewable resource that promotes the care of our environment. Also, when the candle is finished burning, you can easily clean the teacup with soap and water and enjoy a hot cup of tea! Even though teacups are my main interest, I've also experimented with other containers, tealights, pillars and votives with great success! Please feel free to message me any comments, suggestions, ideas or questions you might have about the candles. I'm always open to input on how to improve my product and services as well as my page. Thanks for checking out my page, I hope you enjoy my lovely candles as much as I enjoy making them.
