Candle Burning Tips
Burn your pillar candle one hour for every
inch of its diameter the first time you
light it. This will allow the pool of
wax to extend to the outside rim and prevent
your candle from forming a "canyon"
in its center.
Trim the wick of any candle (canister
candle, pillar, or votive) to ¼"
every time you light the candle. This
will ensure clean, smoke-free burning.
Remember to keep your wax pool free of
trimmings and foreign objects.
If you don't have a snuffer, carefully
place your forefinger between the candle
and your mouth, aligning it with the flame.
When you blow at the candle, the "air"
will circle around your finger, and hit
the flame from both sides, rather than
approaching it directly.
To avoid fading keep candles away from
direct sunlight.
When storing your candles keep them in
a dry, cool, dark place.
Put a tablespoon of water at the bottom
of your votive holder before putting in
your candle. This will help with removing
the old candle and replacing it with a
new one.
To sample a scented candle, breathe the
fragrance in from the bottom of the candle
rather than the top or side. There is
more concentrated scent there, compared
to the exposed top and sides.
