Candle- Roebling Bridge

On The Label: The Roebling Suspension Bridge in Cincinnati, Ohio, is a historical landmark over the Ohio River connecting Cincinnati, Ohio, and Covington, Kentucky. It was designed and built by John A. Roebling, who also designed the Brooklyn Bridge in New York City.  It has become an iconic symbol of Cincinnati and is listed on the National Register of Historic Places. The bridge is still used today, carrying both pedestrian and vehicle traffic across the river. This was my most challenging painting to date. I painted the bridge three times. I am still not quite satisfied and may try again. 

Each wine bottle candle has a past and a story: Touch and move your unlocked phone over the label to reveal a page with a unique story or history of what's depicted. Some candles have a QR code on the back instead. 

Sustainability: CCC is your connection to candles crafted with the health of our planet and people in mind. I wash, cut, sand, and polish discarded wine bottles and give them new life. I use clean-burning coconut/soy wax and Phthalate free fragrance, and the reusable bamboo lid seals in the scent and keeps your candle dust free. I include unique black sandalwood-scented matches and a strike strip next to the candle label for an exciting way to light your fire. I recently added a fun new function to the table. Suppose your smartphone is open, and move it around the label. In that case, it will eventually open my website, where I hope to have someday educational information about each Cincinnati icon featured on the labels. These things take time.

Multi-functional: Clutter can make us uncomfortable, and space can be a commodity, so I love to make things with multiple functions. I hand-pour candles that make your home smell wonderful, and they can create an ambiance with the sustainable wood wick crackling like a fireplace. After the Candle is extinguished and slightly cooled, it can double as a creamy warm massage oil.

Candle Care & Punts: Please check out the candle care tips for a great burn and extended candle life, along with the information about the wine bottle punts and free wax. 

Color:   Wine bottles come in various shapes, colors, and sizes. The shade of color may vary from Candle to Candle; for example, these are all identified as amber.
