A small price update

We’ve held our candle prices at $18 for years, even as the cost of materials, supplies, and production has continued to rise. We’ve chosen to absorb those increases for as long as we could because keeping SUN THEORY accessible to you has always been important to us.

But after several years, it’s time for a small adjustment.

Beginning September 16 our 8oz candles will be $20 and our Astrology candles will be $26. You will also see a small increase on refill pricing as well. Our wax melts & bath soaks pricing will remain the same.

Our candle refill program is a great way to save! You recieve a $2 discount for bringing back in your empty 8oz jars or you can bring in a vessel of your own (see website for pricing)!

This is the first price increase we’ve made in years, and we’re grateful for every person who continues to choose something made by hand, in small batches, by a small business.

Thank you for being here and for making it possible for us to keep doing what we love. 🤍

🌿Some art just feels like home.

We’re so excited to welcome a new collection of hand-drawn prints from Bri Ready | Illustration & Brand Design to Sun Theory.

Thoughtfully illustrated with a whimsical spirit, each piece celebrates the beauty of slowing down, embracing imperfections, and surrounding yourself with art that tells a story. In a world of endless digital noise, Tumbleweed’s work is a reminder that there’s something special about art made by human hands.

Whether you’re refreshing a gallery wall, searching for the perfect gift, or simply bringing a little more joy into your space, these prints are ready to find their forever home.

✨Stop by the shop to see the full collection before your favorite is gone.
