What the hell is a Squidge? 🤔

Let’s clear something up:
A Squidge isn’t squishy.
It’s not edible. It doesn’t contain goo.
And no, it’s not a typo.

It’s a handmade candle in a sculpted vessel that looks like it glitched mid-melt — designed to be a little off, a little curious, and totally intentional.

🔍 So what is it?

The Squidge is Lümzi’s signature candle form — a lumpy-limbed, irregular vessel that refuses to blend in.
Every single Squidge starts with a master prototype I sculpted by hand, then cast into custom molds in my studio.

Every Squidge starts with a blob of clay and a stubborn idea. I sculpted the prototype by hand — curves, bumps, and all — before molding it into something pourable.

From design to pour, no part of this process is outsourced — which means each Squidge holds the full weight of being small-batch, hand-shaped, and stubbornly personal.

They're filled with a creamy soy wax blend and poured with layered scent profiles. Think: coastal air and driftwood. Lime basil in a neon jungle. Sweet things with a sharp edge.

🖤 What does a Squidge look like?

That depends on the drop.

Right now, we’re deep in our goth swirl era — inky pigments, dark marbling, glitchy layers. Think candle vessels that look like they rolled through a haunted lava lamp.

Goth swirl mode: activated. Each one’s a little haunted, a little hypnotic. 🖤

Each Squidge is cast individually, so no two turn out the same — ever. Even within the same colour batch, the swirls shift, split, and surprise me every time.

Over time, Lümzi drops will shift: seasonal moods, pigment experiments, scent themes. But the Squidge stays strange.

🔁 What happens after the flame?

When your candle's done doing its thing, clean it out and reuse it as:

• A tiny plant pot
• A brush or pen holder
• A container for your trinkets, rings, or rogue paperclips

Or just keep it on your shelf as an object that makes your space feel more like yours.

This is the original Squidge — now living its second life as a paint-splattered tool pot. It’s a bit battered, but still showing off the form that started it all.

💬 Final note

The Squidge wasn’t designed to be perfect. It was designed to be alive — a tactile, slightly offbeat piece you can light, keep, and reuse.

Hand-sculpted. Studio-poured. A little weird. Entirely yours.
