Candle Care
On the first burn, allow the melt pool to reach the edges of the glass tumbler. This will help to prevent tunneling and give your candle a nice even burn. Trim the wick to about 1/4" before each use. Keep candle free of any foreign materials including matches and wick trimmings Always burn on a level, fire-resistant surface, and never leave a burning candle unattended. Do not burn for longer than 4 hours at a time.  Discontinue use when 1/4” of candle remains.   

Please note: Unlike the rest of our products, our candles contain fragrance oils.

What is the Right Way to Burn A Wooden Wick Candle?

It's important to trim your wooden wicks before burning because when there's too much wood material between the flame and the wax, you run the risk of the candle not being able to light itself. If this happens, the candle will extinguish shortly after being lit.

You don’t need fancy tools for trimming the wick, a good pair of scissors or nail clippers will work efficiently. Here are a bunch of helpful tips for prepping your wick for a sustained burn.

- Make sure your wick is trimmed to between 1/8" - 3/16" (or 3.2mm – 4.8mm) before lighting.

- Wooden wicks have a larger surface area compared to their cotton-wicked contemporaries. We advise you to light the wick across the candle as opposed to at only one end.

- Do not burn candles for more than 4 hours at one time.

- Continue to trim your wick in between burns to avoid any shooting and remove the burnt bits of wood from the top of your wick. You can easily pinch these off with your fingertips

- For safety, only touch the candle when it has completely cooled.

- Take care to not let any of the soot from the wick fall into the candle.
