How to use and care for your candle

Trim your wick to 1/4 inch in length before the first time you light it each and every time
Aim to burn your candle for approximately 1 to 2 hours each time to melt the wax all the way to the edge of the jar, but don't burn it for more than 4 hours.
Lighting your candle for shorter periods might cause tunneling and eventually drown out your wick. To solve this problem, just let your candle burn until the wax melts up to the edges.
Your candle will be hot while burning and should not be moved while the wax is melted. Once you've carefully extinguished it, wait for your candle to re-solidify before touching or moving it.
Always remain in the room with your candle and never leave it unattended. Keep your candle away from children and pets and anything flammable like paper or drapes.
Burn your candle in a well-ventilated room, on an even surface that is heat resistant and away from drafts.
If pieces of wick or other debris fall into the wax, carefully remove them once you've extinguished the flame.
When only 1/2 an inch of wax remains, it's time to stop using your candles and recycle your jar! When your candle is solid and cool, simply fill with boiling water and let sit for about two hours until wax melts and rises to the top. Carefully remove the wick, wash the jar with warm soap and water and voilà!
Once you've burned your candle, it's totally normal for the surface to become rough or bumpy. You might also notice some "wet spots" along the glass - those are normal too - it's wax pulling away as it contracts and retracts with temperature changes. So no need to worry if you spot an of these changes -they won't affect your candle's scent or burn.
