Our Candle Tips

  • When burning our candles for the first time, make sure it is lit for approximately 2/3 hours. This will form a good sized 'melting pool' which provides maximum scent.
  • For best results, keep the wick trimmed to around 1/4 inch. Trimming the wick at regular intervals (or before each burn) will help consume the candle evenly and avoid damaging the glass by producing too high a flame. (Click here for our Wick Trimmers)
  • If the flame is too small, extinguish it and carefully pour out excess wax.
  • Burning times can be extended even further by storing in a cool place prior to burning.
  • Allow the candle to solidify before relighting.
  • Always protect the surface on which the candle rests and ensure it is lit on an even surface.
  • Take care not to leave lit candles unattended.
