Funny Farewell Present — "Separation Anxiety" Candle for a Coworker Leaving

"Sorry for your loss. It's me. I'm your loss." The funny farewell present for the work bestie who knows the office is about to fall apart without them. A proper soy candle with a self-aware joke, not a throwaway novelty — personalise it with their name and a leaving message of your own engraved on the lid, hand-poured in Port Stephens NSW, pet-safe, and dispatched within 24–48 hours (2–5 business days from Black Friday to Christmas). The office leaving gift that gets the laugh of the send-off.

Who It's For

Made for the coworker, work bestie, or colleague with a big personality who's leaving for a new job or moving on. From one person, the Medium ($39.99) hits; from the team, the Large + lid ($52.99, free engraving) reads bigger and splits to a few dollars a head for a group office send-off.

What to Put on a Funny Farewell Present

Lean into the ego. Try their name + "Impossible to replace (we tried)"; "The good one is leaving"; or your team's running joke. The personalisation field on the lid engraving is open text — write exactly the line that gets the laugh.

Candle care

Always burn within sight, on a heat-safe surface away from drafts. Keep out of reach of children and pets. Burn for no more than 4 hours at a time and stop when 1cm of wax remains.

On the first burn, let the wax melt all the way to the edge of the jar (about 3–4 hours) so it doesn’t tunnel. Trim the wick to about 5mm before every burn for a cleaner flame.

What it’s made of

Wax: 100% soy wax — no paraffin. Fragrance: candle-grade fragrance oils used within IFRA guidelines, with no essential oils. Wick: cotton-based and lead-free.

Why no essential oils? Candles are a high-heat application, and many essential oils have low flash points and are hard to formulate consistently in wax — so we use candle-grade fragrance oils made for burning.
