Add a special touch to your gifts by adding on this furoshiki style gift wrap. This season, I commissioned artist Paulina Vårregn to design rabbits dancing around the tree of life (or in this case, the tree of candles). It includes relevant motifs for this season's candle scents, including pine, clove flowers, chestnuts, and more.
The front side is red/brown themed, while the back side is blue/yellow themed.
The gift wrap is made of 100% silk, 90x90cm, 14 mommes, with hand-rolled edges. It's a single piece of silk but double sided print, with Humankind printed on the front and reversed in the back.
Note: Silk creases easily. To maximize enjoyment, unwrap gift wrap, steam it, and wrap the desired candle in the wrap. This wrap can only be purchased with a candle, and cannot be purchased individually.
Materials
Each Humankind candle is crafted from the finest natural coconut soy wax from a farm in Iowa, ensuring a clean, long-lasting burn. The wicks are made from FSC-certified wood, free from lead or other harmful substances, guaranteeing a safe and eco-friendly experience. The candles are hand-poured in downtown Toronto, by Sam.
How to Use
To get the best burn, let the wax melt all the way to the edges of the jar on the first light—this helps prevent tunneling. Trim the wick to about ¼ inch before each use to keep the flame steady and clean. Never burn for more than 2 hours at a time, and always place your candle on a heat-safe surface, away from drafts, pets, or anything that might catch. When you're done, gently blow it out or use a snuffer, and let it cool before moving or relighting. Burn mindfully and enjoy.
New packaging looks great. I found reading some of the text on certain panels was challenging due to font size and background color.
Thank you for your 5 star review!
Once we use up all of the rainbow packaging we'll be switching over to white boxes with black text to increase readability. I appreciate your comment and I'm happy we're on the right track to make the packaging more accessible 🙏

This was a wonderful accent to enhance a social gathering.
Humankind was very communicative with me to ensure the order had arrived. The fragrances were lovely—exactly as described and what I'd hoped for. Highly recommended as a way to add another dimension to your space.

I've only had this candle for about two weeks, and I cannot stop lighting it! I am already halfway through it. It makes the whole house smell like baked goods, which makes it unfortunate that I cannot eat it. Any time someone walks in while it has been lit, they always ask if something is being baked. I normally am not a fan of sweet scents, but this candle has a very gentle sweetness to it that isn't overwhelming, but rather addicting. It is the candle equivalent of eating an entire package of cookies!
refers to the idea of having three substantial and nutritious meals each day, typically breakfast, lunch, and dinner. It emphasizes the importance of a balanced diet for maintaining health and well-being.
