Shipping & Delivery

I ship everywhere in the Netherlands. That’s right—if you’ve got a Dutch address, I’ll get our candles to your doorstep.

Local pickup & FREE delivery is available in Den Helder for large orders—just ask!

Sustainable packaging – because the planet doesn’t need more plastic, and your candles deserve to arrive in style.

Delivery Time: Custom orders typically take 1-4 weeks to make (because handmade magic isn’t rushed). Once shipped, your package should arrive in 1-3 business days.

Tracking & Shipping Costs: You’ll receive a tracking link once your order is on the way. Shipping costs depend on order size and will be included in your quote.

Can I order a single custom candle?

I love you, but custom work takes time, so I have a minimum order of 20 pieces for custom candles. If you just need one candle, check out the regular collection!

This Easter, Citymarketing Den Helder wanted something special—handmade, unique, and full of seasonal charm. So, they turned to me to create custom Easter bunny candles that capture the spirit of spring (and the joy of setting things on fire).
