Every Burning Soul candle starts life as a wine bottle.
Handmade with love in small batches in South London, using vegan soy wax and essential oils.
FROM WINE BOTTLE TO CANDLE
It all starts with an empty wine bottle.
We collect ours from local pubs, friends and neighbours around South London, giving glass that would otherwise be thrown away a new life as a Burning Soul candle.
Each bottle is washed, cut and sanded by hand before being filled with vegan soy wax, a cotton wick and our carefully chosen essential oil blends.
Everything is handmade with love in small batches — from the first cut of the bottle to the final pour.
HOW IT'S MADE
✨ Collected locally
Empty wine bottles are donated by pubs, friends and neighbours in our South London community.
✨ Cut by hand
Each bottle is thoroughly cleaned, scored and cut by hand.
✨ Sanded & finished
The edges are carefully sanded until smooth, ready to become a candle.
✨ Poured in small batches
Vegan soy wax is gently melted and blended with essential oils before each candle is poured by hand.
✨ Ready to burn
The result? A beautifully scented, non-toxic, plastic-free candle with a clean, long-lasting burn - made from a bottle given a second life.
