Support the environment and thousands of worker… bees.

We need bees to survive, but we are not doing a very good job of investing in these dying species. In an effort to support beekeepers and their colonies, I have started using beeswax products. Here are the two major changes I have made in an effort to be more environmentally conscious and to support beekeepers.

First, nix the saran wrap and use the honey-scented Bee’s Wrap instead. I switched at the beginning of the year and I will never go back. Never!

Second, switch to beeswax candles! I bought myself two very expensive “Boy Smells” candles a while ago and was disappointed to find them extremely smokey and as a result… pretty stinky. Today, I lit this one pound bees wax candle and it lightly filled the air with a clean and fresh honey-like scent. Bonus points for the seller encouraging us to reuse and wax by building our own candle from the scraps! 

The rustic appeal and economical price of the candle above has me sold, but this one is on the wish list for its pretty design.
