Candle Care
Keep your candles burning clean and longer with these tips!
We chose to use wooden wicks for our candles... why? Here’s a few reasons!
- WOODEN WICKS DO NOT MUSHROOM, HAVE LITTLE TO NO CARBON BUILD-UP, NO DEBRIS AND NO SOOTING LIKE COTTON WICKS
- WOODEN WICKS ARE COMPLETELY AMERICAN MADE, BEING SOURCED AND MANUFACTURED IN THE USA FROM FOREST STEWARDSHIP COUNCIL (FSC)-CERTIFIED MILLS
- THE FIRST TIME YOU LIGHT THE CANDLE, THE WAX MAY NOT PULL ALL THE WAY UP THE WICK AND THE WICK WILL EXTINGUISH, SIMPLY BREAK OFF BURNT ASH AND RE-LIGHT, IT WILL THEN BURN CONTINUOUSLY.
- ALWAYS BURN CANDLES FOR ATLEAST 2 HOURS OR UNTIL THE TOP LAYER OF WAX COMPLETELY LIQUIFIES. IF YOU EXTINQUISH TOO SOON, YOU WILL NOT GET A CLEAN BURN AND MAY HAVE CONTINUING ISSUES WITH WICK DROWNING FROM WAX BUILD UP ON SIDES OF JAR.
- BE SURE TO GENTLY SNAP OFF THE ASH OR BURNT WOOD ALONG THE TOP EDGE OF THE WICK BEFORE EACH LIGHTING.
- IF WHEN BURNING THE CANDLE FOR A LONG PERIOD OF TIME YOU NOTICE THE FLAME HEIGHT GETTING TOO LOW, IT MAY BE NECESSARY TO EXTINQUISH FLAME, TAP OFF ANY EXCESS ASH OR BURNT WOOD ALONG THE TOP OF THE WICK. RE-LIGHT , THE FLAME WILL THEN RETURN TO ITS PROPER OPTIMAL HEIGHT.
- BE VERY CAREFUL NOT TO LET ANY DEBRIS FROM THE WICK (OR ANYTHING ELSE!) FALL INTO THE CANDLE!
- DO NOT BURN CANDLE MORE THAN 6 HOURS AT ONE TIME.
