Light a Dream was established in the fall of 1999. The project began as an extension to the Lester B. Pearson School Board and John Abbott College Cooperative Education Program for intellectually delayed young adults between the ages of 18 and 21. In the fall of 2000, a storefront location was found in the Pointe-Claire Village. Under the supervision of a group of staff and parent volunteers, students are encouraged to contribute to and be included in the business world. Light a Dream is a non-profit registered charity. We encourage you to come in and interactive with our special staff. We can assure you an exceptional shopping experience. VOTIVES Votives are our most popular product. Made with a special wax blend that gives a fabulous scent throw, our votive candles are a wonderful way to add light and fragrance throughout a room. The typical votive will burn for approximately 15 hours. Arrange votives around the room (in tight-fitting votive holders!) line them up on the mantle, set them on top of a mirror square so that the light ref lects back...there are so many options with these compact candle gems! We carry different categories of scents such as Floral, Fruits, Aromatherapy, Food&Drinks and Seasonal. Some of our most popular scents include: Vanilla Hot Apple Pie Buttercream Crunch Strawberry Lemongrass Watermelon Lavender Biscotti Forest of Fir Purely Herbal See page 15 for colors and scents available www.lightadream.com 3 TEALITES These mini candles can be dyed and scented or left untouched depending on their use. Each candle is prepared using a plastic tealite cup for a more attractive finish. They are available in packages of 4, 6 or boxed for special orders. See page 15 for colors and scents available www.lightadream.com 4 CANDLES CONTAINER New: So y Wax! Soy wax is an all vegetable-based wax which contains roughly 85% soy-based material. It is non-toxic and burns cleanly with almost no soot residue. It has a low melting point which makes for a quick even burn and a potent fragrance throw. Generally speaking, soy wax has a longer burn time than paraffin but shorter than beeswax.

Traditional pillars are approximately 6 inches in height with a base between 2 - 3 inches in diameter. Pillars have a slow even burn creating a tunnel effect and virtually no drip. Of all the products we make, the pillar is by far the most diverse in terms of color, height and diameter. Pillars can be produced to your specification. See page 15 for colors and scents available. www.lightadream.com 6 MOLDED CANDLES Molded candles come in a variety of shapes and we carry three types: Solid, Ice and Chunk. These candles are shaped with special molds and burn under the same principals as our pillars. Candle Tip Keep lit candles out of drafts, drafts create large flames, shortening the burning time. Votive candles burn better in a container. The tighter the fit the longer the candle will burn. See page 15 for colors and scents available. www.lightadream.com 7 BEESWAX CANDLES Beeswax is a sweet, simple renewable fuel that burns long and bright. It is nontoxic and hypo allergenic. Beeswax has the highest melting point of any other candle wax and thus provides for a long, clean and dripless burn. We carry two types of beeswax finish: flat, as the word implies and honeycomb, a rigged honeycomb pattern imprinted on the wax. At Light a Dream, all of our tapered beeswax candles are made from the finest quality beeswax. Taper refers to the degree of point at the wick tip of the candle and can be made to any specification, however the typical taper is 8.5”. They are hand-rolled and can be found in a multitude shapes, sizes and the colors shown below. Beeswax Colors Adobe Orange Cilantro Midnight Black Pink Innocence Baby Fern Cloud Nine Mt.
