addition to any home. Following these simple safety guidelines will
help keep your home safe and allow the optimal use of your candle.
Safety:
1. To prevent smoking, trim the wick to 1/4 inch prior to each use.
2. Never leave a burning candle unattended.
3. Do not let matches, pieces of the sick, or other debris fall into the
candle.
4. Place candle on a protected, heat resistant level surface.
5. Do not place near flammable objects, such a curtains, walls, ect.
Tips:
1. The first time a pillar candle is lit, burn it one hour for every inch of
its diameter. This will allow the pool of wax to extend to the outside
rim and prevent our candle from forming a "canyon" in the center.
Burning your candle this way will also set its memory. Each time
your candle is relit, the candle will "remember" to burn out to the
rim.
2. Keep your wicks trimmed! This is essential for a clean and smoke
free burn.
3. When burning highly scented candles, sometimes "mushrooming"
will occur on the wick. Treat this as a friendly reminder that you
need to trim the wick.
4. Never "blow out" a candle. Blowing will spray the wax everywhere
and cause the candle to smoke. The most effective way to
extinguish the flame of a candle is to use a candle snuffer or to dip
the wick into melting wax then reposition. This will also help
eliminate smoking.
