Candle Care

Picture
  • Before lighting your candles for the first time and each subsequent time, trim the wick to 1/4".  This allows the candle to burn until the pool of wax reaches the full diameter of the candle.  By doing this, you will get a longer burn, and it will help keep the candle from smoking.

  • Burn candles for one hour per inch of diameter.  This sets the candles "memory" to the edge of the candle, and when you light it in the future, it will "remember" to burn to that point.

 

  • Extinguish container candles with our wick dippers (See candle gifts).
