Our Story!

After attending law school on a full tuition scholarship, I decided that becoming an attorney wasn’t for me. I felt that I had lost myself dealing with the constant “code-switching” “imposter syndrome” and “mental exhaustion.” After completing my first year of law school I completely shut down because while I was trying to impress my future “coworkers” I had lost who I truly was. I created De’Jamont & Co. after falling back in love with myself. Each mug, candle, and candle label will give you a piece of my personality that I felt I had to hide while on my journey to become an attorney. Who is De’Jamont? The most ambitious, inappropriate, loud, goofiest, outspoken, ratchetist, bougiest, charismatic woman you will ever meet. I fell in love with the process of being able to create my two favorite things: candles and mugs without having to stress the idea of maintaining a “professional” persona at all times. I want others to see that there is beauty and success in being yourself. Why try to fit in when you DESERVE to standout?

Candles

Where Are Your Candles Made?

All candles are made in small batches in Richmond, Virginia.

Candle Care

1. Always burn your candle on a flat surface

2. Keep your candle wick centered and trimmed to ¼’’ at all times

3. Remove all packaging before burning

4. Burn your candle for at least two hours during the first use to ensure even burn distribution of wax and to avoid tunneling.

5. DO NOT burn candle for more than 4 hours at a time.

6. Do NOT use water or any other liquid to extinguish your candle 

7. Keep wax pool free of debris

8. Discontinue use when ¼’’ of wax remains

Why Is my Candle Releasing Soot?

 Soot is a natural occurrence for any candle. If your candle is continuously releasing soot, it can be the result of carbon build-up on the wicks, not trimming the wicks of the candle, over-burning the candle, or burning the candle in an area that is receiving a draft from a vent.

TROUBLESHOOT: If you are experiencing excess sooting, try trimming your wicks to 1/8’’, moving your candle to another location, or extinguishing your candle if it has been burning for more than 3-4 hours.

Why Isn't My Candle Releasing A Strong Fragrance?

Some fragrances are stronger than others (Ex: A vanilla candle will have a stronger throw than a peach candle). Try moving the candle to another location.

Candle Rule:

(1) Single wick candles for smaller rooms

(2) Double wick candles for medium sized rooms

(3) Triple wick candles for larger rooms.

Why Do I Have Wax Built Up On The Edges of My Candle?

"Tunneling" occurs when a candle has not been burning long enough for the wax to pool from edge to edge.

TROUBLESHOOT: If the candle has begun to tunnel, burn the candle for 3-4 hours to allow the candle to self-correct. Continue to burn in 3-4 hour increments until the candle self- corrects.

3D Candles

Each candle is hand-poured with a simple elegant design. Our 3D candles can be use as decorative piece or can be burned.


Usage:
- Remove packaging and label before lighting, and put the candle on a heat-proof surface.
- Ensure you trim the wick to 1/4 inch before each burn.
- Please always burn candles responsibly. Keep candles in sight, away from children, pets, and other objects.

PLEASE NOTE: All our candles are 100% handmade and will have minor imperfections by nature such as discoloration, bubble, etc. The color may slightly vary depending on your choice of fragrance oil. We cannot guarantee for irregularly shaped candles, each one will be fully burned.
