How to Take Care of Your Candles so They Last (and Smell Great) Forever
When it comes to burning candles, safety should always be a top priority. Here are a few reminders to keep in mind:
-
Never leave a lit candle unattended.
-
Keep it out of reach of curious pets and little ones.
-
Maintain a 6-inch distance between burning candles.
-
Steer clear of flammable objects.
-
Swap out the candle for a new one once it reaches the ½ inch wax mark.
Now that you've got the safety basics down, let's take your candle experience to the next level.
-
Trim that wick to prevent soot buildup and enjoy a cleaner burn.
-
Keep the flame away from the glass walls to prevent breakage.
-
If you notice any cracks, chips, or breaks in the glass, it's time for a new candle.
-
If your candle has multiple wicks, make sure to light them all up for an even burn.
-
Keep the candle free of any wick trimmings, matches, and flammable materials.
-
A blackened glass? No problem! Simply extinguish the candle, let it cool, and clean with a dry paper towel.
-
Cover the candle when not in use to avoid dust buildup.
-
Properly snuff out the flame with a candle snuffer or by blowing gently.
