Candle Safety Candles Scented Care Burning

An open flame is always a potential danger. A burning candle CAN cause a fire. PLEASE use every safety precaution when burning a candle to protect yourself, your loved ones, your pets and your home.

Keep a watchful eye on a burning candle at all times. Extinguish all candles when leaving a room or before going to sleep. A wick could flare up, catching nearby curtains on fire. A child or pet could knock over a burning candle. A fire can get out of control faster than you can imagine. Just don't take that chance. Burn all candles in proper holders. This means, pillar candles should be on appropriate glass, ceramic or metal plates or holders; votives should be in appropriate, tight-fitting votive holders; tea lights should only be burned in appropriate holders and enclosures; and container candles should be placed on flat, heat resistant surfaces. For tin container candles, place the container base inside the cover to protect table surface from heat while burning. Never burn a candle on or near anything that can catch fire. Keep burning candles away from furniture, upper cabinets (I have a singed bathroom cabinet to attest to this), drapes, bedding, carpets, books, paper, flammable decorations, flammable liquids, etc. Keep candles out of the reach of children and pets. Do not place lighted candles where they can be knocked over by children, pets or anyone else. Keep burning candles away from drafts, vents and air currents. This will help prevent rapid, uneven burning, and smoking. Drafts can also blow lightweight curtains or papers into the flame where they could catch fire. Remember that ceiling fans can cause drafts too. Keep wick trimmed to 1/4", preferably 1/8". Trim it before every time you light a candle. If your wick is too long, your flame will be too high, and that's just not safe. It may also cause your candle to smoke. Keep wax free of wick trimmings, matches and debris. These kind of things can ignite in your candle, and become like wicks themselves. This will cause your candle to get too hot for the container, and could potentially cause a glass container to crack. Always burn your candle for about 3 – 6 hours at a time, and allow wax to harden before re-burning. Why this particular amount of time Because when a candle is properly wicked, it is designed to reach its full melt pool after about 3 hours. If you never burn it that long, you are going to melt your candle down the middle, and possibly waste that wax on the sides of the container. If you burn it longer than 6 hours, the container could get excessively hot and potentially cause a glass container to crack. A full melt pool will also give you the maximum fragrance throw for your candle. Never touch or move a candle when burning or when the wax is liquid. Okay, this is obviously because you could burn yourself or make a mess. Cover your candle when not in use to preserve the scent, and keep dust out.
