Tip
Burn different candles, or spray some room spray, while lighting a
candle of a different scent. For optimum results, mix different types of
fragrances, like a floral and an earthy type. Cinnamon and Red Currant,
Clean Crisp White, and Vanilla Grapefruit. Be creative, and find that
scent that says it's you. |
Tip
Always keep some wrapped candles on hand, so you are not panicked
when you forget someone's birthday until the last minute. |

Candle Burning
Tips
The first burn of your new candle is the most important and should be
long enough to allow the whole wax surface of the candle top to melt
into a wax pool. Most of our candles are designed to burn for 2-3 hours
at a time which should be adequate for achieving this desired melt pool.
It will take less for smaller candles and more for larger ones.
If you burn your candles for shorter periods at a time, the candle will
"tunnel" or burn down the center with too much wax unused. This will
also cause the wick to extinguish due to a lack of oxygen in the
"tunnel".
Burning for periods longer than 2-3 hours will increase the intensity of
the flame creating excess carbon that may smoke.
Our candles should not smoke if proper care is taken of the wicks. We
suggest trimming the wick to 1/4 inch before each use, keeping the
candle out of drafts, and again, limiting burning time to 2-3 hours. If
at any time your candle wick starts to smoke, please review the previous
precautions; it may be necessary to extinguish the candle and trim the
wick again. Taking these simple steps will prolong the life of your
candle and allow you to enjoy it as intended.
If your candle is not allowed to burn long enough to melt the wax to the
glass edge and starts to tunnel, you can correct this by burning the
candle longer on the subsequent use, until the melted pool of wax
reaches the edge of the glass container. However, do not trim the wick
when attempting this type of correction and allow the candle to burn
long enough to melt the entire surface which may exceed the
aforementioned 3 hours. Once the correction is made you must always
continue to follow the initial instructions regarding burn times, wick
length, etc.
