Candle Care and Safety
Directions:
Trim wicks to 1/4 inch before lighting.
The first time you light your candle, let it burn long enough to develop a full melt pool to the edge of the candle vessel. This "memory burn" will help keep your candle from tunneling when you burn it the next time.
Candle Safety:
Trim candlewicks to 1/4 inch before each use.
Keep burning candles out of the reach of children and pets.
Do not place a burning candle near flammable objects like curtains, paper, furniture, and books.
Never leave a burning candle unattended. Extinguish your candles when you leave the room and before going to sleep.
Place candle holders on a stable, heat-resistant surface.
Burn candles in a well-ventilated room.
Keep lit candles away from drafts and ceiling fans and air currents.
A candle should not be burned for more than four hours at a time.
Discontinue burning when at least 1/4 inch of wax remains in the container.
Extinguish candles with a snuffer; never with water.
Keep debris out of the wax pool.
Extinguish a candle if the flame becomes too big, smoky, or if it flickers continuously.
