Beehive

 

NOTE: Our tapers and candles are SEASONAL items. Due to our Texas heat, our candles will only be sold and shipped, October through May of the following year. 
 

I wish our real beehives looked this cute! This type of beehive is called a Skep. In old times, it was made by bunching grass and straw together and using cane to make into a rope. It was then coiled into a type of dome. It had no bottom, so beekeepers would just place it in trees or on top of a horizontal surface. Bees would congregate there and make their home. Unfortunately, the bees did not survive when harvest time came along.

 

Today, many cities, counties and/or states outlaw the use of the Skep to raise bees. With the bee population dwindling, it's imperitive to keep the bees safe and protect them throughout their life cycle.

2" x 1-3/4"

PLEASE burn your candle responsibly by putting it on a non-combustible surface while being close by as the candle burns. Please don't burn the candle more than 3 hours at any one time. Trim the wick the next time you light your candle to 1/4".
