Candle Safety Guidelines*

Keep the wax pool clean. Always ensure the melted wax is free from matches, wick trimmings, and any other debris.

Use a long lighter. For safer lighting, we recommend using a long gas lighter rather than matches.

Place candles away from anything flammable. Keep candles at a safe distance from items that could catch fire—such as decorations, curtains, or paper. Remember that flame height can increase as the candle burns.

Protect children and pets. Burning candles can easily attract curious hands and paws. Always place candles out of their reach to prevent accidents.

Do not move a burning candle. Avoid touching or moving a candle while it’s lit or while the wax is still liquid. The container and wax can become extremely hot and may cause burns.

Monitor the flame. If the flame grows too high or begins to produce visible soot, extinguish the candle immediately. Allow it to cool, trim the wick, and check for drafts before relighting.

Extinguishing Your Candle Safely*

Gently extinguish the flame—never blow it out. Blowing can cause hot wax or burning wick fragments to scatter. Instead, use a candle snuffer or carefully dip the wick into the melted wax with a metal tool (such as the handle of a spoon). Be sure to straighten the wick afterward.

Do not use water or any liquid to put out the flame. Adding water can cause hot wax to splatter and may even crack the glass container.

Ensure the candle is fully extinguished before leaving the room. Always double-check that the flame is completely out and that the wick is no longer glowing.

Air out the room after use. Candles consume oxygen and release moisture as they burn. Once the candle is extinguished, briefly ventilate the space to refresh the air. Avoid opening windows while the candle is still burning to prevent drafts.
