Pappy would handle those bees in the boxes and enter the cabin with yellow wax at hand. It would not be processed like we see today. It would still have the soot from smoking the bees and would then be used as the only light to finish chores when the sun went down. Filled mason jam jars would be put on the pantry shelf for storing. This blackened Bees Wax primitive Nature decor jar candle is rare. We have devised a recipe that smells amazing and is made with natural bees wax and vegan soy. It has eco wick and burns clean. This little rustic pantry addition is perfect for fall decor, fall wedding or just an adorable primitive living room decor item. Popular scented, kitchen pantry candles. Chose from rust mason lids or by overwhelming request, we now have the option of Forest Friendly biodegradable butcher paper lids. Many of our candles are freshly poured. The longer the shelf life the stronger they smell. Perfect PRIMITIVE DECOR
