Please follow these simple tips in order to keep your candle burning as cleanly as possible, for as long as possible.

 

• Always keep wick trimmed to approximately 1cm.

• Trim the "mushroom" off of the wick prior to each burn in order to reduce excess smoke while burning and after extinguishing. 

• During the first burn, allow the wax to pool to the edges of the vessel.  This should take between 3-4 hours.  This step is very important to maximise the life of your candle.  

• Allow the wax to melt to the edge of the vessel during every burn to ensure your candle does not "tunnel".

• Never relight your candle until the wax has fully set from the previous burn.

• Keep your burning candle on a heat resistant surface and away from drafts, children and pets. 

• Never move a burning candle.

Once your candle has reached the end of its life, simply wash the vessel with hot, soapy water and it'll be ready for its new life as a pen / pencil holder; a vase, or storage for shells; beads, and any other odds and ends.
