To ensure you have the best experience with your artisan candle, please follow the tips below:
 |
Trim your wick to ¼” - ½” with a wick trimmer, fingernail clippers, or small scissors.
|
 |
The first time you burn your candle, be sure to let it burn so that the “simmer pool” (melted wax) reaches the edges of the vessel. Wax has a memory and if the candle is extinguished before the simmer pool reaches the edges, it will be difficult for the candle to burn properly later. Before re-lighting your candle, be sure to trim the wick again, including any “mushroom” that has formed. This will ensure a controlled flame and help your candle to last longer.

 |
To prevent soot, especially in jar candles, use long fireplace matches or long handled lighters to light your candle.
|
 |
Our candles are designed to self-extinguish when there is about ⅛” of wax left at the bottom of the vessel for safety and clean burning. When your candle has burned completely, simply place in the freezer for a couple hours and pop the wax out with a knife so the vessel can be cleaned and re-used.

To clean excess wax from wax painted candles, heat up a large pot of water to 120 degrees, submerge the candle in the water and let sit for 15 minutes.
Then, use a spoon to scoop out the inside wax.
