Candle Safety

BEST PRACTICES FOR CANDLE BURNING

—Always burn long enough to achieve a full melt pool so as to prevent tunneling. This is most critical during the first burn.
—Burn no longer than 4 hours each time. Too much liquid wax can make a candle dangerous.
—Make sure that the wick is centered and always correct the wick if it begins to stray to one side. Candles that are allowed to cool and harden with a very off-center wick should be discarded.
—Always keep wick trimmed to 1/4” to prevent sooting and large flames.
—Keep away from drafts, pets and children.
—Do not ever light a candle after using it on a candle warmer.
—Stop use after wax level reaches 1/2” from bottom of container.
—Always burn on a level, fire-resistant surface away from curtains, bedding, books, etc.
—Always burn pillars and votives in a candle holder made for candles.
—Never leave a burning candle unattended.
