We want you to enjoy our candles to your best ability but that means that your MUST have a safe candle burning experience.  Please follow our recommendations on burning candles.

Before Lighting:

• Before burning, always trim the wick to ¼ inch. Long​ ​wicks can cause flaring.
• Keep the wax pool clear of wick trimmings, matches and debris at all times.

 Burn candles in a well-ventilated room:

•  Avoid drafts, vents or air currents. This will help prevent rapid or uneven burning, sooting​.​
• ​I​t is recommended that candles do not burn for longer than ​three hours and cool ​completely ​before relighting.
• When lighting a candle, use long matches or a long-reach lighter. Keep your hair and loose clothing away from the flame.

While Burning:

• Never leave a candle unattended.
• Never burn a candle on or near anything that can catch fire. Keep burning candles away from furniture, drapes, bedding, carpets, books, paper, flammable decorations, etc.
• Keep candles out of the reach of children and pets. Do not place lighted candles where they can be knocked over by children, pets or anyone else.
• Never touch or move a candle while it is burning or while the wax is liquefied.
• Don’t burn a candle all the way down. For a margin of safety, discontinue burning a candle when 1/2 inch remains in the container​. ​
• Extinguish a candle if the flame becomes too high or flickers repeatedly. Let the candle cool, trim the wick, and check for unwanted drafts before re-lighting.
• Never use a candle as a night light or while you may fall asleep.

When Extinguishing a Candle: 

• Use a candle snuffer to extinguish a candle. It’s the safest way to prevent hot wax from splattering.
• Make sure the candle is completely out and the wick ember is no longer glowing before leaving the room.
• Don’t touch or move the candle until it has completely cooled.
