general burning instructions
-
Without exception always
keep children and pets away
from burning candles.
Never leave burning candles unattended.
Only allow adults to
light and maintain candle products.
Never go to sleep without first
extinguishing candles.
Always burn candles on a flat,
smooth, even and heat resistant surface.
Do not burn near open
windows, vents, fans or anything that may create a draft.
Flame should always burn in an
even, upwardly direction and never allowed to touch the sides of containers.
If flame is "flickering" relocate
candle to a draft free area.
Always use snug fitting
holders that exceed the
height of candles.
Always allow containers to cool
before touching or moving.
When first lighting any candle, it is essential to do so only when you have enough time to fully establish a 'melt pool'. Although time varies depending on the
size of container(s), melt
pools are generally formed within 1-2
hours. Melt pool should never exceed a depth of 1.5
inches.
Wax has a 'memory' of sorts and if,
when first lit, the melt pool fails to reach all sides of the container, when next lit, the wax will 'burrow' down the center of the jar.
