🔥 Candle Safety Guidelines

• Keep burning candles away from children, pets, and flammable materials.

• Only place candles on heat-resistant surfaces or holders. Drink coasters are not necessarily heat-resistant.

• Never move a burning candle—liquid wax can cause injury or damage.

• Extinguish candles when wax reaches approx. 1/4" to avoid overheating the container.

• For optimal performance and burn time, follow these tips:

First Burn

• Allow wax to melt fully to the edges to prevent tunneling.

Multiple Wicks

• Light all wicks each time for an even burn.

Wick Maintenance

• Trim wick to 1/4 inch before each use to prevent soot buildup.

• Avoid flame contact with the sides of the vessel to prevent blackening and overheating.

• If blackening occurs, extinguish, let wax set, wipe clean, and check wick length.

Scent Tips

• If scent seems faint, leave the room briefly and re-enter. Drafts, fans, or open windows may affect scent flow.

General Care

• Discontinue use if the candle is cracked, chipped, or damaged.

• Remove any debris (e.g., wick trimmings or matches) before re-lighting.

• Keep wick centered before wax cools to ensure even burning.

• If wick is too short and drowning, extinguish and remove some wax with a tissue.

• Remove any “wick blossom” before re-lighting.

• Cover candles when not in use to prevent dust buildup.

• Use a candle snuffer to extinguish. If unavailable, blow gently and steadily—keep hair and face away from flame.

⏳ Burn times vary due to fragrance, color, usage habits, and environment.
