Candle Care & Burning Tips

For your safety:

  • Never leave a candle unattended.
  • Keep out of reach from children and pets.
  • Always burn candles on a level, heat safe surface.
  • Do not move candles while they are burning.
  • Burn candles away from any drafts, fans, and any
    other air currents.

Burning Tips:

  • Trim the wick to 1/4 inch before lighting and periodically
    throughout the burn.
  • Trim if the wick gets too long or creates carbon
    buildup.
  • Burn pillar candles for at least an hour per inch in
    diameter.
  • Lightly hug the edges of your pillar candle to ensure
    the flame reaches all of the edges.
  • If any size or shape of candle starts to drip, put it out,
    trim the wick and let it harden before relighting.
  • Votives are designed to be burned inside of a votive
    holder. Add a few drops of water to the bottom of the
    Votive holder, for easy cleanup!
  • Tealights are designed to be burnt in one session, it
    may be difficult to relight if burnt halfway.
  • When lighting, hold the flame at the base of the wick,
    to prevent burning the wick away.
