Candle Care + Safety 

​

• The first burn of your candles is the most important! Wax holds memory from the first time it is lit. We recommend burning your candle for at least 2.5 - 3 hours the first time you light it, or 1 hour for every inch of diameter of the container. If this step does not occur your candle will most likely tunnel. 

​

• Never burn your candle for more than 4 hours, this will prevent carbon from forming on the wick which creates black soot on your jar.

​

• Use your candle lid or a snuffer to distinguish your candle's flame to keep it burning clean and prevent tunneling.

​

• Never leave a burning candle unattended. Extinguish all candles when you leave a room or before going to sleep.

​

• Follow the 2 2-foot rule - don't place a burning candle near clothing, books, curtains, or anything flammable.

​

• Keep lit candles away from drafts, ceiling fans, and any air currents.

​

• Always trim your wick to 1/4 inch each time before you light your candle. This helps prevent the flame from getting too large and keeps your candle burning at its best!

​

• Keep candles out of the reach of children and pets.

​

• Place candle holders on a stable, heat-resistant surface that is sturdy and large enough to catch any melted wax.

​

• Let your candle create a wax pool each time you light it. This will ensure the strongest fragrance possible! 

​

• Always read and follow manufacturers' directions for use and safety, and extinguish a candle if the flame gets too close to the candle holder or container.

​

• Place burning candles at least 3 inches apart from one another.

​

• A burning candle should not be used as a nightlight.
