Candles Tips for Safety and a Better Burning Candle.

Jar Candles:

  • NEVER LEAVE A CANDLE UNATTENDED.
  • For best results, burn candle 1 hour for every inch the diameter of the candle. This way you obtain a full pool of wax which prevents "tunneling".
  • Candles have a "memory". When burning a candle make sure you allow the wax pool to melt to the edge of the jar before extinguishing.  Each subsequent burning will allow the candle to melt to the edge and burn evenly.
  • Inspect glass container before lighting. If glass container is cracked or chipped do not light the candle.
  • Remove foreign objects in the jar before lighting.
  • Do not extinguish candle with the lid.
  • Burn candle on a heat resistant surface.
  • Do not move candle when burning or wax is hot.
  • Keep candle away from drafts.
  • Discontinue use of the candle when 1/2 inch of wax remains.
  • Keep wick trimmed at 1/4 inch.
  • Keep candle away from children, pets, and flammable objects.
  • ONCE AGAIN, NEVER LEAVE A CANDLE UNATTENDED

Pillar Candles:

  • NEVER LEAVE A CANDLE UNATTENDED.
  • When lighting a new pillar for the first time, let the candle burn until the pool of wax reaches the edge of the candle then carefully extinguish the flame.  Each subsequent burning will prevent the pool of wax from leaking. MAKE SURE YOUR WICK ALWAYS REMAINS STRAIGHT.  
  • When lighting candle make sure the wick is straight (I think I already said that).
  • Never burn a candle on or near anything that might catch fire.
  • Keep candles out of the reach of children and pets.
  • Keep candle away from drafts.
  • Do not move candle when burning or wax is hot.
