Cauldron Bubble
Macbeth
blasted heath, crushed herbs, smoldering ashes
$24.00
By the pricking of my thumbs,
Something wicked this way comes.
Open, locks,
Whoever knocks.- William Shakespeare
Shakespeare’s Weïrd Sisters, with their eye of newt and toe of frog, plant the seed of ambition in Macbeth which swiftly leads to his spectacularly tragic, murderous fall. Yet they are merely responding to ‘whoever knocks’, suggesting that Macbeth came looking for toil and trouble. Fair is foul and foul is fair, after all. This witchy blend begins with top notes of peppercorn, clove, and sage - foraged potion plants. Middle notes of patchouli, vetiver, and moss call to mind the blasted Scottish heath that sets the scene, and base notes of smoke, embers, and balsam complete the spell.

- Place candle on a stable, heat-resistant surface away from flammable objects and beyond the reach of pets and little readers.
- Always keep wick trimmed to ¼ inch - retrim after every burn. Don't skip this step! It is very important to maintain proper flame size to prevent excessive carbon buildup in your wick and soot residue on your pretty vessel.
- Do not burn your candle for more than 3 hours at a time, even if that book is hard to put down.
- Keep burning candle in sight and away from drafts and fluttering pages.
- Use care when extinguishing: beware of blowing too forcefully, which can send hot wax or burning embers into the air. A candle snuffer is the best tool to safely extinguish your candle.
- Discontinue use when remaining wax reaches ½ inch.
- Reuse your frosted glass tumbler! Dispose of the last bit of wax at the bottom–just don't pour it down the drain! Use vinegar or rubbing alcohol along with a splash of hot water to loosen the adhesive on the wick tab, remove it, and wipe any residue left on the glass. Your recycled tumbler can serve as a pencil holder or vase (our labels are water resistant) that continues to remind you of one of your favorite stories.
