Candle Care Guide

I hope these tips help you take care of your candles and enjoy them for longer! Trim the wick: We try to trim down the wick to the correct height but if it as above 1/4" you should trim it down to prevent soot buildup and ensure a longer burn time Burn within sight: Always burn candles within sight and away from anything that can catch fire, such as curtains or books Keep away from children and pets: Make sure your candles are out of reach of children and pets because you don't want accidental burning of their skin Remove packaging: Remove all packaging, including labels before lighting your candle Avoid drafts: Keep candles away from drafts, vents, or air currents to prevent uneven burning and sooting. Use a heat-resistant surface: Place candles on a heat resistant surface to avoid heat damage to furniture or other surfaces. I prefer metal candle plates over glass, but we will soon have both available for sale Burn for the right amount of time: Burn candles for at least one hour for every inch wide of the candle to ensure and even burn pool and prevent tunneling. Extinguish safely: Extinguish candles safely by using a snuffer or gently blowing them out. Do not use water to extinguish a candle as it can cause hot wax to splatter Store properly: Store candles in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight or fluorescent light to prevent fading and discoloration.
