Packaging has two jobs: do not smash, do not look like landfill on the kitchen table. We use glass and tins that still work as jars once the wax is gone, and cotton pouches that are GOTS-certified rather than a mystery poly-bag with a leaf printed on it.
We are a small pour. We are not going to pretend a cardboard box has saved the Atlantic. We will say the pouch is better than a throwaway film, the glass is meant to be kept, and we do not wrap a candle in three other candles’ worth of plastic. More on the fabric: GOTS pouches. Empty the jar properly: emptying.
