Library | Book Lover Apothecary Candle

• The first time you burn your new candle, let it burn until the wax melts all the way across the candle, around 2-3 hours. This will prevent tunneling (melting only down the center of the candle).

• Trim the wick to 1/4 inch (break off the burned part) each time the candle is lit. This helps prevent the flame from getting too large and helps your candle to last longer. 

• Keep lit candles away from drafts, ceiling fans, and any air currents. This will help your candle to last longer.

• Never leave a burning candle unattended. Extinguish all candles when you leave a room or before going to sleep.

• Follow the 2-foot rule: don't place a burning candle near clothing, books, curtains or anything flammable.

• Place candles on a stable, heat-resistant surface.

• A candle should not be burned for more than four hours at a time.
  
  
• Don’t burn a candle all the way down. For a margin of safety, discontinue burning a candle when 1/2 inch of wax remains in the container.
