These earrings will especially appeal to those who don't feel comfortable wearing long or large earrings but desire a small, thoughtful accent.
Minimalist style with a colorful twist

Comfort that matters daily

Polymer clay jewelry offers wide possibilities for color, texture, and shape combinations, making each pair slightly different. Handmade craftsmanship gives the earrings a personal feel and a story that cannot be replicated in mass production.
If you are looking for earrings that are comfortable, lightweight, and suitable for various life situations, stud earrings will be a reliable choice — for both everyday wear and special moments.
How to safely burn soy wax candles?
To ensure that soy wax candles burn safely and evenly, please remove all decorative elements before lighting.
Trim the wick to approximately 0.5–1 cm before burning, as a wick that is too long can cause a large flame and uneven burning. The flame should be calm and no higher than 1–1.5 cm. If the wick is leaning to one side or has not been trimmed properly, the wax may melt unevenly and spill over the edges of the candle.
Natural soy wax candles create a cozy and relaxing atmosphere. They are eco-friendly and healthier for your home compared to paraffin candles. To enjoy them safely and make them last longer, here are some simple soy wax candle care tips.
1. Trim the wick before each burn.
Before lighting your soy wax candle, trim the wick to about 5 mm. This helps the candle burn evenly and reduces smoke.
2. Allow a full melt pool during the first burn.
Lat the wax melt all the way to the edges of the jar. This prevents tunneling and ensures your candle lasts longer.
3. Don't burn for more than 4 hours at a time!
For best results, burn your natural soy candle for 3-4 hours at a time. This keeps the flame safe ans maintains the candle's quality.
4. Safety first!
Always place candles on heat-resistant surfaces and away from drafts. Never leave a burning candle unattended. Keep your soy wax candles away from children and pets.
5. Extinguish your candle in time.
Blow out the candle before the wax completely burns out. This protects the container from overheating and cracking.
