What Else You Should Know About Them:

What kind of geeky goodness will you be bringing with you to the next Geekery Market?

Epic Meltdown Candles is bringing some ultra geeky candles like you've never seen before. Nearly all the candles have a surprise hidden inside - get a giant dice candle with a set of dice inside it, or a dragon egg and hatch a little dragon charm. We'll have sorting hats that will sort you to your Hogwarts house - don't worry, we can rig it! We'll also have a limited amount of seasonal candles for fall and winter.

What's an item you are bringing that you are really excited about?

The gelatinous cube candle is always a crowd pleaser. Come by and jiggle it!

What was the first item you ever made? How did you learn to make it?

I learned candle making through a handful of online resources and plenty of trial and error. Trust me, no one wants to see my early candle attempts.

What else would you like everyone to know about your wares?

See our blog on our website for important candle safety tips.

If you could travel anywhere in space or time, real or imagined, where would you want to go?

It maybe cliché, but I'll go to Hogwarts. All that magic would be fun and everything would be resolved at the end of the school year.
