Southern Blaze wood wick lotion candles are hand-poured into a glass mason jar

Southern Blaze wood wick lotion candles are hand-poured into a glass mason jar, made in America. We use glass mason jars because it’s a nonporous and impermeable material which makes them the perfect material container for noninteraction between the packaging and our wax. The glass has an almost zero rate of chemical interaction. This allows for the wax to store for long periods which ensures the strength and integrity of the aroma. This is one reason Pure Soaps And Candles chooses to use a glass mason jar for our Southern Blaze collection of candles.

Mason jars are a home staple. They are a great go-to when you need an empty glass container. After you have enjoyed your Southern Blaze Luxury candle you can continue to enjoy your jar for years to come. Here are some creative ideas to recycle, reuse, or repurpose those mason jars.
