5 Ways To Take Care of Your Candles
1. Trim that wick
Before lighting, trim the wick to 1/4" using scissors or a wick trimmer for a clean, safe burn and increased lifespan.
2. Let is burn
Allow the wax to melt to the edges of the jar to prevent tunneling - especially important on the first burn!
3. Safety First
Never leave a lit candle unattended, and don't burn for more than 4 hours at a time. To protect the surface below from heat, place your candle on a coaster or tile.
4. Know when to stop
Don't burn your candle if only 1/4"-1/2" of wax remains. Lighting a candle without enough wax can overheat the jar.
5. Reuse it
Once the candle is finished, clean out the jar! Now you've got a new planter or pencil holder or whatever you'd like.
