HOW TO USE PILLAR CANDLES

 

Pillar candles are not only a beautiful addition to any space but also versatile in their usage. Follow these simple instructions to ensure safe and effective use of your pillar candles. 

1  Select a Stable Surface and a Tray: Place the pillar candle on a heat-resistant, flat tray. Ensure it sits securely to prevent tipping or falling during use.

2  Trim the Wick: Before lighting the candle, trim the wick to about ¼ inch (0.6 cm) in length. This helps to prevent excessive smoking and ensures a clean, even burn.

3  Avoid Drafts: Place the candle away from drafts, air vents, or fans, as these can cause uneven burning and diminish the candle's lifespan.

4  Light with Care: Use a long-handled lighter or match to ignite the candle. Avoid using paper matches, as they can leave behind debris that may affect the candle's burn quality. 

5  Monitor While Burning: Never leave a burning candle unattended. Keep an eye on the candle, especially if there are pets or children around. Ensure the flame is a manageable size and doesn't come into contact with nearby objects.

6  Allow for Even Burning: During the first burn, allow the wax to melt evenly across the entire surface of the candle. 

7  Extinguish Safely: When you're finished enjoying your candle, extinguish it by gently blowing out the flame or using a candle snuffer. Avoid using water to extinguish pillar candles, as it can cause hot wax to splatter.

8  Trim the Wick Again: Before relighting the candle, trim the wick again to maintain optimal burning conditions and prevent soot buildup.

9  Store Properly: Store pillar candles in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures. This helps preserve the candle's color and scent for future use.

10  Enjoy Responsibly: Pillar candles are meant to enhance your space with warmth and ambiance. Enjoy them responsibly, following these guidelines to ensure safe and enjoyable use every time.

 

By following these simple instructions, you can make the most out of your pillar candles, creating a cozy and inviting atmosphere in any room of your home.
