Candle Care & Safety
Please review the following guidelines to ensure your candle remains in the best condition possible as well as using it safely:
- Trim the wick to 1/4” (5mm) length before every burn. All my candles are currently wood wicks, so this step is not always necessary. However, if before relighting, your wick is charred more than about 5mm, gently break off the charr and then relight.
- When burning a candle for the first time, allow the candle to burn until the wax has melted completely to the edge of the glass before extinguishing. This will help to avoid tunnelling. For a medium sized candle this could be approximately two hours, however, smaller candles will need less time and wider candles more time, sometimes even 4hrs.
- Ensure your candle is placed on a heat safe surface away from flammable items, including but not limited to curtains & clothing.
- Always keep candles away from kids & pets; and never leave a burning candle unattended.
- Burn your candle for a maximum of 4 hours at a time.
