For a clean, safe, and long-lasting burn:
- Trim the wick to at least 1/4” each time before burning; reduces smoke and debris and controls flame height for a safer burn
- Melt the wax completely to the edges of the container with each use; ensures an even burn and prevents tunneling
- Burn the candle for no more than 4 hours at a time. Once wax is closer to the bottom of the container, keep burn times shorter; helps to avoid uncontrolled flames and the vessel overheating
- Discontinue use when there is 1/2” of wax left; avoids overheating of the vessel
To give your candle a new life:
- Freeze the used candle for 2-3 hours or overnight
- Remove the remaining frozen wax and discard
- Clean the vessel with soap and warm water
- Repurpose the vessel (we use ours as planters or pen holders!)
