Care Instructions
Care Instructions
Candles can bring warmth, ambiance, and fragrance to any space, but to ensure you get the most out of them safely and effectively, proper care is essential. Here’s a comprehensive guide on how to care for your candles:
1. **Trim the Wick:** Before lighting your candle each time, trim the wick to about 1/4 inch (0.6 cm). This helps prevent smoking and ensures a cleaner, more even burn. Long or crooked wicks can cause uneven burning, dripping, or flaring.
2. **The First Burn:** When you first light your candle, allow it to burn for a few hours until the wax melts evenly across the surface, reaching the edges of the container. This prevents "tunneling," where the wax only melts in the center, creating a hole and wasting wax.
3. **Keep Away from Drafts:** Avoid placing your candle in drafty areas or near open windows, fans, or vents. Drafts can cause uneven burning, smoking, or even extinguishing of the flame.
4. **Burn Time:** Limit each burn session to no more than 3-4 hours, especially for larger candles. Extinguish the flame if it reaches the bottom of the container or within 1/2 inch (1.3 cm) of the base.
5. **Extinguish Safely:** Use a candle snuffer or gently blow out the flame to extinguish the candle. Avoid blowing directly onto the flame to prevent hot wax splatters.
6. **Center the Wick:** After extinguishing the flame, ensure the wick is centered and upright before the wax solidifies. This helps maintain an even burn for future use.
7. **Keep the Wax Pool Clean:** Remove any debris or wick trimmings from the wax pool to prevent them from catching fire or interfering with the burning process.
8. **Store Properly:** Store candles in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and heat sources. Exposure to heat can cause candles to warp or soften, while sunlight can fade colors and affect fragrance.
9. **Use Candle Accessories:** Consider using accessories like candle holders or trays to protect surfaces from heat and wax spills. They can also enhance the aesthetic appeal of your candles.
10. **Discontinue Use Safely:** When only 1/2 inch (1.3 cm) of wax remains in the container, it’s time to discontinue use. Burning the candle beyond this point can cause the container to overheat or crack.
11. **Reusing Containers:** Once the candle has burned down completely, you can clean out the container and repurpose it for storage or decoration.
