Candle Care
- Clear any debris before lighting your candle.
- Keep out of direct sunlight or other sources of heat.
- Never move a hot, burning candle.
- Burn within sight and never leave a candle unattended.
- Keep out of reach of children and pets.
Trim your wick between each use! Trimming your wick to about 1/4" with a wick trimmer, scissors, or nail clippers will allow for a much longer, smoother, and cleaner burn.
The melt pool is the candle wax that has melted on top of the candle while the flame is lit. To ensure a clean and even melt pool, be sure to burn your candle for 3-4 hours each use. This will allow for a longer total candle burn time.
