• Always keep wick trimmed to ¼ inch to prevent smoking
• Burn until pool of wax reaches edge of candle (ie 1 hour per inch of candle diameter 3’ = 3 hours)
• Allow wax to cool before re-lighting as cool wax burns longer
• To prevent drips, keep wick centered and avoid drafty areas while burning
• Push in sides of soft wax to maintain level surface on top of candle
• When burning votive candle, place in a votive glass container that fits snug.

• Keep wick trimmed to ¼ inch above gel
• Discontinue use when candle gel reaches ¾ inch
• Do not burn for more than 4 hours at a time
• Allow candle to cool & trim wick before burning again
• Do not extinguish with water
• Keep out of direct sunlight and heat
• Remove any exposed embed as they emerge from the cooled gel

FOR SOYBEAN WAX CANDLES:

• Keep the wick trimmed to 1/8 inch to prevent smoking and carbon mushrooming. Retrim every 3 to 4 hours as the candle burns.
• Burn in a draft free area clear of combustible materials such as curtains, books, baskets, etc.
• Candles should be spaced apart while lit to prevent uneven burning.
• Keep the burn pool clean, never throw matches into the candle.
• Keep candles out of direct sunlight and away from heat sources.
• Always place the candle on or in a non-combustible, heat-resistant base set on a level stable surface.
• Extremes of heat and cold should be avoided. Do not store the candles in the freezer and never leave them in a hot car.
• The candles may be cleaned by washing them gently in cool water. Allow to air dry before use.

NEVER move or leave the candle unattended while burning.


FOR BEESWAX CANDLES:


Here are a few tips to help you get the most from your beeswax candles:

• Never leave a burning candle unattended.
• Always place your candle on a non-combustible, heat-resistant surface before lighting it.
• Trim the wick to about 1/4 inch long before burning to avoid smoking.
• Keep the candle out of drafts. A draft can lead to smoking, dripping and uneven burning.
• The first time you burn a candle, allow it to burn until the melted wax (called "The melt pool") covers the top of the candle (about an hour per inch of diameter). In subsequent lightings, keep the burning time down to a maximum of three or four hours. This insures a clean, efficient burning cycle for the life of the candle.
• Aged beeswax candles burn even longer than freshly made ones. Keep some candles tucked away to burn at a later date.
• Burning candles close together in groups will affect the burn time and quality of the burn because of heat generated by the candles.
• Remove any bits of wick or other foreign matter from the pool of melted wax after extinguishing your candle.
• Use your candles sensibly and safely and you will be able to enjoy their serene beauty and sweet scent for many hours.

• Remove any wick trimmings left on candle
• NEVER leave a burning candle unattended
• Keep candle out of reach of Children and pets
• Never burn too close to flammables, including silk plants & curtains
• ALWAYS use caution when handling warm candle
• Always burn candle on a heat resistant holder
• Always protect furniture from heat of a burning candle
• Burn candle with caution and at own risk
