The Best Candle Gifts for Expecting Moms
It’s no secret that candles make an amazing gift, but the best natural candles for pregnancy have a few important qualities that make them extra giftable for mom-to-be. When we were searching for the best candles to stock in our gift shop for expectant Moms, we wanted to ensure that we only carried clean burning, non-toxic candles that Mom would feel good about burning inside her home while she’s in full-on nesting mode. We landed on a collection of four hand-poured coconut wax candles that’ll fill Mama’s home with all the cozy warmth and none of the harmful ingredients or overpowering scents of the mainstream brands.
Lighting a warm, cozy candle at the end of the day has been one of our favorite rituals for years and we are so happy that Mamas all over the country can enjoy our favorite candles for pregnancy!
All of the candles at Nurtured 9 feature:
Light, calming fragrances that are blended with a mix of the best phthalate-free essential oils.
Virgin coconut crème wax that’s a blend of natural soy and coconut waxes, giving it a smooth, creamy white finish.
Wooden wicks that not only offer a cleaner burn, but also give off a slight crackling sound that’s very relaxing! All of the wicks are naturally processed and sourced from Forest Stewardship Council (FSC) certified mills.
Each non-toxic candle is poured in small batches in Portland, ME.
A FRESH take on our original Bloom candle. The Bloom No.2--Fresh Cut is made up of all the goodness of our original, non-toxic, phthalate and paraben free, and a clean-burning wooden wick, but with a crisp, new look! A chic neutral vessel with subtle nude pink label holds a clean burning coconut wax scented as if you've just clipped the flowers fresh from the garden and warm agave undertones. Topped off with a delicate sprinkle of Peach Moonstone gemstones, this candle will send all the good vibes.
