CANDLE SAFETY

​

  • Never leave a burning candle unattended

  • Burn candles out of reach of children and pets

  • Do not burn candles near anything that could catch fire

  • Place burning candles on a heat resistant mat

  • Do not place candles in a draught

  • Trim the wick to 5mm before each lighting

  • When lighting for the first time make sure the wax melts all the way to the edge of the container

  • Keep the melted wax pool clear of matches and debris to prevent flaring

  • We recommend you do not burn your candle for more than 3 hours at a time

  • The candle container will be hot after burning – allow to cool completely before handling

  • Do not allow the candle to burn right to the very base of the wick – extinguish the flame when there is still a small amount of wax remaining. This prevents the wick moving or the flame causing a potentially hazardous heat build up in a localised region of the container

  • Our candles are made from 100% natural wax – you may notice variations such as frosting, cracking or sweating in the wax. This is normal for natural wax and does not effect the performance of the candle

  • Replace the candle lid between burns – this protects the candle and wick from dust

  • If you spill any wax, carefully scrape away the excess, then follow with warm soapy water

  • Candles made from natural wax react to changes in temperature. We recommend you keep away from direct sunlight and avoid exposure to extreme fluctuations in temperature.
