Candle Care

Cotton Wick Candle Care:

  1. When you light your candle for the first time, allow one hour of burn time, or burn until a there is a complete melt pool formed to the edge.

  2. Trim candlewicks to ¼ inch each time before burning. A wick trimmer works great for this, but scissors will do fine. Make sure to remove any used wick particles from the surface.

  3. Keep the wax pool clear of all wick trimmings and debris.

  4. Avoid burning your candle near drafts (fans, breezes, etc).

  5. Please avoid displaying or storing your soy wax candle in direct sunlight. Soy wax is a natural product, and variations in color (from white to yellow) may occur.

  6. Safety first:
        • Never leave a burning candle unattended.
        • Never burn a candle near anything that can catch fire.
        • Keep your candles out of reach from children and pets.
        • Burn your candle on a heat-resistant surface.
        • Keep out of drafts.
        • Do not burn for more than 4 hours at a time.
        • Do not move the candle when it is hot or while burning.
        • Only burn the candle on a level, fire resistant surface.
        • Stop use when only 1/4 inch of wax remains. 

 

Wooden Wick Candle Care:

  1. The first time you burn your candle, allow the wax to melt to the edges of the container. This trains your candle to prevent tunneling.

  2. Trim the wooden wick every time to 3/16" to remove charred pieces. A wick trimmer works great for this, but scissors will do fine.

  3. Keep the wax pool clear of all wick trimmings and debris.

  4. Light the wooden wick from the bottom closest to the wax.

  5. If you experience a "low flame" or your candle burns out, relight it from the bottom of the wick, closest to the wax.

  6. Avoid burning your candle near drafts (fans, breezes, etc).

  7. Please avoid displaying or storing your soy wax candle in direct sunlight. Soy wax is a natural product, and variations in color (from white to yellow) may occur.

  8. Safety first:
        • Never leave a burning candle unattended.
        • Never burn a candle near anything that can catch fire.
        • Keep your candles out of reach from children and pets.
        • Burn your candle on a heat-resistant surface.
        • Keep out of drafts.
        • Do not burn for more than 4 hours at a time.
        • Do not move the candle when it is hot or while burning.
