Candle Care & Safety

For the safest and most enjoyable burn, please follow these care guidelines:

• Always place your candle on a heat-resistant surface before lighting
• Trim wicks to ¼ inch before each burn to ensure an even flame and reduce soot
• Allow the wax to melt fully to the edges on the first burn to prevent tunneling
• Burn no longer than 3–4 hours at a time
• Keep candle away from drafts, children, and pets
• Never leave a burning candle unattended
• If flame flickers continually, or "dances", extinguish and trim wick prior to use

Wooden Vessel Care ~ Bark & Dough Bowls

• The vessel will naturally warm during use — this is normal
• Extinguish if the vessel becomes hot to the touch - this is not normal
• Do not move the candle while lit or while wax is hot
• DO NOT USE when ½ inch of wax remains, discard or repurpose
• Always ensure the candle is placed on a stable, non-flammable surface
