• Always burn candles in a well-ventilated room.
• Keep candles away from children and pets.
• Never burn a candle on or near flammable objects, such as paper, clothes, furniture, and other decorations.
• Always keep a burning candle within sight. Extinguish all candles when leaving a room or before going to sleep.
• Trim candlewicks to 1/4 inch each time before burning. Long or bent wicks cause uneven burning and dripping.
• Always use candleholders which are heat resistant and large enough to contain any drips or melted wax. Be sure the candleholder is placed on a stable, heat-resistant surface.
• Never candles when the wax is in liquid condition.
• When the power goes out, you can light candles but don't carry them around. Have a flashlight if you need to walk around and find supplies, your cell phone or other things.
• To extinguish a candle, dip the wick into the liquid wax, using a nonflammable instrument. This technique eliminates smoking of an extinguished wick.

Candle Storage

• Always store candles in a cool, dark, dry place.
• Do not place candles in freezer. Water will compromise the wax. Container candles will contract away from the glass.
• Candles will fade if left in the light for an extended period of time. Never put candles in a window or directly expose to bright outdoor light or indoor spotlights.
