Trim the wick:
Before each use, trim the wick to about 1/4 inch to prevent a smoky, uneven burn.
Choose a safe location:
Place the candle on a heat-resistant surface, away from flammable materials, drafts, and vents.
Use a sturdy holder:
Ensure the candle is in a stable holder that won't tip over easily.
Keep it away from children and pets:
Supervise children and pets when candles are burning.
Lighting and Burning:
Use a long match or lighter:
Light the wick carefully, using a long match or lighter for safety.
Burn for the right amount of time:
Burn the candle long enough for the wax to melt evenly across the top, but not so long that it creates a large flame or soot.
Don't burn candles all the way down:
Extinguish the candle before it gets too close to the holder or container.
Don't blow out the flame:
Instead, use a candle snuffer or gently extinguish the flame.
Safety Precautions:
Never leave a burning candle unattended:
Extinguish the candle before leaving the room or going to sleep.
Keep candles away from flammable materials:
Ensure there are no curtains, newspapers, or other flammable objects within a safe distance of the burning candle.
Ventilate the room:
Ensure proper ventilation when burning candles, as they can release trace quantities of toluene and benzene.
Extinguishing:
Use a candle snuffer or extinguish gently:
Use a candle snuffer to gently extinguish the flame or blow it out gently.
Allow the candle to cool completely before relighting:
This helps prevent overheating and ensures a safe flame.
Dispose of the candle properly:
When the candle is finished, dispose of the wax and container responsibly.
