Product Tips and Safety

• Carefully peel away labels and packaging from your candle before burning,
• Make sure you trim the wick to 0.5cm (quarter of an inch) before you start the first burn,
• Avoid placing your candle near drafts if possible. If you can't, periodically rotate the candle,
• Never leave the candle in direct heat or sun as the candle colour will fade and distort the shape of the candle,
• Always store candles in a cool, dry and dark place i.e. pantry, wardrobe or laundry cupboard,
• Always burn your pillar candles for no more than 3 to 4 hours at any one time. This helps to maintain a good melt pool and prolong the fragrance within the candle wax,
• Never move or tilt a burning candle as hot wax can cause severe burns,
• Always use a candle accessory when burning your candle as candles can create a lot of heat and may scorch or mark the bench top or table,
• Keep candles away from children and pets,
• Never leave a burning candle unattended.
