Candle Burning Tips
Follow these tips to ensure excellent and safe candle burning:
Never move or leave candles unattended while burning.
Keep the wick trimmed to ¼ inch to prevent smoking and carbon mushrooming. Re-trim the wick before every use.
Burn in a draft free area clear of combustible material such as curtains, books, baskets, etc.
Candles should be spaced apart while lit to prevent uneven burning.
Don't burn candle for more than 4 hours at a time.
Keep the burn pool clean; never throw matches into the candle.
Keep candles out of direct sunlight and away from heat sources.
Keep out of reach of children.
Always place candles on or in a non-combustible, heat-resistant base set on a level stable surface.
Extremes of heat and cold should be avoided. Do not store candles in the freezer and never leave them in a hot car.
Candles may be cleaned by washing them gently in cool water. Allow to air dry before use.
Remember, burning candles involves a flame and hot melted wax; these two things can be very dangerous, so take extreme care and enjoy the wonderful fragrances that are available.
