The First Burn is The Most Important

Allow the melt pool to reach the edges of the vessel during the first burn. This establishes an even memory and helps prevent tunneling.

 

A well-begun candle will burn more beautifully throughout its life.

All About the Wick

Before each lighting, trim the wick to about ¼". This encourages a steady flame, minimizes soot, and supports a longer burn.

​

If the wick becomes buried in wax, gently extinguish the candle and clear the excess once cooled.

Tending Safely

Burn within sight and avoid drafts.

 

Keep the candle on a heat-safe surface.

 

Limit each burn to four hours.

​

Discontinue use when only ½" of wax remains.
