Christmas Order Cut-Off Dates 2026

When should I order my Christmas candles?

Because Sculptedwax candles are hand-poured in Australia, we recommend ordering well before the Australia Post cut-off dates.

Sculptural Candle Orders

Allow 5–7 business days processing, plus postage time.

Bulk Candle Orders

Allow 10–14 business days processing, plus postage time.

For the best chance of receiving your order before Christmas, we recommend ordering as early as possible rather than waiting for the final postage cut-off.

Please remember that Australia Post's dates are recommended lodgement dates and do not guarantee delivery by Christmas. Seasonal demand, weather, transport delays and regional delivery times can affect delivery.

Want your Sculptedwax Christmas candles to arrive in time for Christmas? We've done the date calculating for you.

Every Sculptedwax candle is hand-poured in our Australian studio, so please allow time for us to carefully create and prepare your order before it is handed over to Australia Post.
