Brand story

Meet the Maker ♡

Hey, I'm Zahara! I'm the girl behind The Daydream Jar. What started as a love for sweet scents and pretty candles turned into my own little handmade business.

I pour and decorate every candle myself, from choosing fragrances to adding the tiny details that make each jar special. I love creating candles that feel a little different from what you'd normally find in a store.

Every candle is made in small batches with lots of care, and knowing that something I created gets to be part of someone's home makes it even more special.

Thank you for being here and supporting my little daydream. ♡

A LITTLE HELP BEFORE YOU LIGHT

Frequently Asked Questions ♡

How do I care for my candle?

Trim the wick to about ¼ inch before each burn. Keep your candle on a stable, heat-resistant surface away from drafts, children, and pets. Never leave a burning candle unattended.

How long should I burn my candle?

On the first burn, allow the wax to melt evenly toward the edges when possible. Never burn for longer than 4 hours at a time, and stop using the candle when about ½ inch of wax remains.

Are all candles exactly the same?

Each Daydream Jar candle is poured and decorated by hand in small batches, so little differences in the decorations make every jar special.

What are your candles made from?

Our candles use a soy–paraffin wax blend, fragrance oil, and wax decorations. Individual fragrance notes are listed on each candle's product page.

How much is shipping?

Shipping is a flat $8 within the U.S. Orders are prepared within 3–5 business days before shipment. Carrier delivery times vary.

What if my candle arrives damaged?

Please contact us as soon as possible with your order number and clear photos of the packaging and candle so we can review the issue and help.
