Mindful in Method & Material

At TIMOTHY C BUCKLEY, luxury doesn't cost the earth. Discover our passion for sustainability, ensuring every candle is a conscious choice.

Our Pillars of Sustainability

Renewable Wax

We use 100% natural soy wax, a carbon-neutral product derived from American-grown soybeans. It's biodegradable and burns cleanly, creating a healthier home environment.

Recyclable Vessels

Our elegantly minimalist glass and tin containers are designed for easy recycling. Better yet, they are perfect for upcycling into charming home decor pieces.

Plastic-Free Shipping

Every order arrives thoughtfully packaged. We use recyclable boxes, water-activated paper tape, and biodegradable packing peanuts to protect your candles.

Ethical Sourcing

We carefully select partners who provide phthalate-free fragrance oils, lead-free cotton wicks, and share our commitment to responsible and ethical practices.

Give Your Candle a Second Life: How to Upcycle Your Vessel

Step 1: Clean out leftover wax.

Step 1: Clean it Out

Once your candle has burned down, remove residual wax by placing the vessel in the freezer for a few hours. The wax will shrink, making it easy to pop out. Alternatively, fill with hot water to melt and pour out.

Step 2: Remove Labels & Clips

Peel off any remaining labels; warm soapy water often helps with sticky residue. Gently scrape away the metal wick clip from the bottom of the vessel. Ensure it's sparkling clean and dry.

Now your beautiful vessel is ready for its next life! Use it as a chic desk organizer for pens, a small planter for succulents, a holder for makeup brushes, or a sophisticated container for cotton buds.

Better for You, Better for the Planet

We believe you shouldn't have to choose between everyday luxury and a sustainable lifestyle. At TIMOTHY C BUCKLEY in Wheelersburg, OH, every candle is crafted with care for both your sanctuary and our shared world.
