Copy of Candle Care Tips
Keep your candle burning bright.
Follow these tips
- Trim the Wick: Before lighting, trim the wick to about 1/4 inch to prevent soot and ensure a steady flame. ✂️
- First Burn: Allow the candle to burn for 2-3 hours on its first use to create an even melt pool across the top. This prevents tunneling. ⏳
- Keep it Safe: Always burn candles on a stable, heat-resistant surface away from drafts, flammable materials, and out of reach of children and pets. 🚫🔥
- Avoid Tunneling: Ensure the wax melts evenly to the edge of the vessel each time you burn the candle to prevent tunneling. 🕳️
- Monitor the Flame: Keep an eye on the candle while it's lit. If the flame becomes too high or flickers excessively, extinguish it, trim the wick, and relight. 👀
- Extinguish Properly: Use a snuffer or gently blow out the flame to avoid hot wax splatter. 🛑💨
- Store Safely: Store candles in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and heat to preserve their fragrance and quality. 🌞❄️
- Reuse or Recycle: Once the candle has burned down, repurpose the container or recycle it responsibly. 🔄♻️
Following these candle care tips ensures a safer, longer-lasting, and more enjoyable candle-burning experience. Enjoy the warm glow and beautiful scents of your candles!
