Candle Burning Instructions

Candle burning is not quite as simple as just adding fire. Below is some simple instructions for getting the very most enjoyment out of your candle, proper candle care and safety issues you should follow.


Votives:
Please remove all labels and packaging before lighting. Votives are NOT pillars and should never be burned free standing. Always burn votives within a votive container that is the correct matching size to the candle, it should be a snug fit.
Never let the candle burn down completely, leave atleast 1/4"- 1/2" of wax.
Keep the container on a stable, safe and heat resistant surface.

Tealights:
Remove all packaging and labels before burning. Never place directly on furniture. Use caution metal tin can be very hot. Only burn in a nonflammable container designed for tealight candles. If using with a warmer make sure it is well ventilated and follow all directions given for the warmer/burner.
Keep the containers/warmers on a stable, safe and heat resistant surface.

Pillars:
Please remove all labels and packaging before lighting. Never place directly on furniture, in case of spills or drips. Always burn on a specifically designed candle plate/holder.
Never let the candle burn down completely, leave atleast 1/4"- 1/2" of wax.

Containers:
Keep the container on a stable, safe and heat resistant surface. Keep the wick centered so it never is too close to the sides of the candle (never mess with the wick while it is lit). Never place the lid on the container while lit. The container can get very hot, use caution when handling it until wax has cooled.
Never let the candle burn down completely, leave atleast 1/4"- 1/2" of wax.

Tarts & Wax Melts 
Please remove all labels and packaging before melting. Add one or more melts/tarts following the manufacturers instructions and not to overload the pot. Follow all safety & use instructions for the melter/warmer's manufacturer. Tarts & melts can be remelted many times before the run out of scent.
To remove it from the warmer you can let the wax cool completely and then place the bowl into the freezer for 5-10 mins. It should then easily pop out with some gentle nudging. Do not add water to your melter/warmer. Do not pour wax down your sink drain.

General Advice:
The first time you light the candle you should give it a proper amount of time to burn to build up its burn memory. This is an important step to get the most from your candle's life and it must be done in the first burn. It is suggested that your initial burn is one hour per inch in diameter.
Only keep a candle burning for 1 hour per inch of it's diameter at a time.


General safety and usage instructions


Fire can be dangerous. Always be careful, smart & cautious. 
Failure to follow instructions could result in fire, injury or damage.
Always follow the proper candle instructions.
  • Always burn in the correct candle holder or warmer as directed by the type of candle & that has been specifically designed for candle use. It should be a heat proof container & kept on a heat resistant surface. Never place directly on furniture. It should be heat resistant, sturdy, and large enough to contain any drips or melted wax & kept on a heat resistant surface. Never place directly on furniture.
  • DO NOT leave a lit candle unattended. Never leave a candle burning when you leave home, are asleep or even in another room.
  • Use extra caution around children and pets- keep candles out of reach of both at all times.
  • Never move the candle while it is lit or the wax is still hot/melted.
  • Keep away from drafts
  • Burn candles in a well-ventilated room. 
  • Keep away from flammable objects / anything that could potentially catch fire
  • Do not extinguish container candles with the lid.
  • Always keep the wick trimmed to 1/4 inch & make sure it is centered. Never handle the wick while it is lit or until it has had time to cool.

  • Never leave wick trimmings, matches, or any other material in the wax pool as these can create a fire hazard.
  • If you ever feel a candle is not safe or it doesn't seem to be burning correctly- do not use it. 
When extinguishing a candle:
  • The safest way to extinguish a candle is with a snuffer.
  • Never use water to extinguish a candle. Water can cause the hot wax to splatter.
