1. The first time you burn your candle make sure you burn long enough that the wax melts to the edges of the glass. Depending on your environment, this may take anywhere from 5-6 hours or longer until it reaches a full melt pool.

2. Always trim your wick to 1/4 inch each time the candle is re-lit to reduce smoking, high flame, and soot build up. If there is a fragrance mushroom on top of the wick it must be removed before re-lighting. (We recommend using our wick trimmers). Be sure not to cut it too short or it will become engulfed by wax.

3. Extinguish the candle, trim the wick and re-light if candle begins to smoke or the flame flickers repeatedly or becomes too high. 

4. Dispose of wick trimmings and fragrance mushroom to keep debris out of the wax pool.

5. Do not burn your candle for more than 4 hours at a time.

6. Be sure to keep burning candles away from drafts, vents, ceiling fans and air currents as it may cause it to smoke.

7. Keep away from children, pets and furnishings and never leave candle unattended.

8. Enjoy Your Candle!
