Retirement Candles - No Mortgage, No Boss, No Worries Kraft

The list is honest right up to the last item, which is the joke and also the truth. "Retired: No Mortgage, No Boss, No Worries, No Paycheck" is the fairest summary of the whole arrangement.

Hand poured in the Signature Kraft jar with 60+ hours of Bamboo Forest. A retirement lunch, a mortgage burned at last, a final payslip: this is the one.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What is a good gift for someone who has just paid off their house?
A: Something for the house itself is the obvious and correct answer, since that is the thing they have spent thirty years buying. A candle for the living room lands better than anything abstract.

Q: Is a joke about having no paycheck safe to give?
A: It works when the person retired by choice and is comfortable, which is the great majority of retirements. If money is genuinely tight, choose one of the sayings about time instead.

Q: What is the difference between soy wax and a soy blend?
A: A blend cuts soy with paraffin to cut cost, and this is 100% soy with no paraffin in it. That is why it burns cooler and leaves the glass clear.

Q: How large is the Signature jar?
A: 13.5 oz of wax in a jar 3.375" across and 4.25" tall, with 60+ hours in it. It is the full-size pour rather than the smaller 9 oz.

Q: Is everything made in one place?
A: Every jar is poured, labelled and checked in Minnetonka, Minnesota. Small batch means a person handles each one rather than a line running unattended.

Q: What is the best way to put a candle out?
A: A snuffer or a lid is better than blowing, which scatters soot and can push the wick off centre. If you do blow it out, do it gently and straighten the wick afterwards.
