FAQS
Troubleshooting
Handmade candles have the opportunity to fill a room with a calming radiance and invigorating scent when they burn correctly. Sometimes a little maintenance is necessary to ensure the candle is burning properly, safely, and in a way that maximizes the fragrance emitted in your space. Here are a few candle care suggestions to improve the quality and life of your candle: 1) If possible, each time you light your candle, be sure to let the wax melt completely to the edges of the container before blowing it out. Especially the first burn. This will help prevent “tunneling" where only the wax in the center of the candle melts down. 2) Avoid burning any candle for more than 3 or 4 hours at a time. This is a safety precaution. 3) The candle wicks that we utilize are high quality and self-trimming. However, on occasion trimming the wick of your candle before you relight it is necessary. Always check that the wick is centered in the melted wax and regularly trim to about ¼” tall. This is essential to keeping your candles burning clean. (Always allow the candle to cool completely before trimming the wick). To trim the wick you can utilize a wick trimmer which is angled to make it easy. You can also use scissors or a tweezer. Avoid allowing any soot from the wick to fall into the candle during this process. If it does be sure to dump it out completely as this can cause safety concerns. 4) Never leave a burning candle unattended. Be sure to extinguish the flame before leaving the room. 5.) Always leave candles out of the reach of children and pets. 6) Always place candle in a stable heat resistent surface, away from curtains and/or any flammable objects before lighting.
🌿✨ Discover the Difference: Soy vs. Paraffin Candles! 🕯️💚 Did you know that the type of candle you choose can have an impact on your health and well-being? Let's shed some light on the benefits of opting for soy candles over paraffin ones: 🌱 Natural Ingredients: Soy candles are made from soybean oil, a renewable and biodegradable resource, whereas paraffin candles are derived from petroleum, a non-renewable fossil fuel. 🌬️ Cleaner Burning: Soy candles produce less soot and toxins when burned compared to paraffin candles, creating a healthier indoor environment and reducing the risk of respiratory irritation. 🌺 Pure Fragrance: Soy candles are often scented with natural essential oils, providing a cleaner and more authentic fragrance experience, whereas paraffin candles may contain synthetic fragrances that can trigger allergies or sensitivities. 🔥 Longer Lasting: Soy candles typically have a longer burn time than paraffin candles, offering extended enjoyment of their soothing ambiance and delightful aroma. 🌎 Environmentally Friendly: Soy candles are eco-friendly and biodegradable, making them a sustainable choice for conscious consumers who care about the planet. Make the switch to soy candles and experience the difference for yourself! Elevate your space with our luxurious soy candle collection, crafted with care to enhance your well-being and nurture the environment. 🌿💫
1. Store Properly: Keep wax melts in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and heat sources to prevent them from melting or losing their fragrance potency. 2. Use a Suitable Wax Warmer: Ensure your wax warmer is appropriate for wax melts. Electric or tea light wax warmers are commonly used. Avoid using wax melts in oil warmers or diffusers not designed for wax. 3. Start with a Clean Warmer: Before using a new wax melt or switching scents, clean your wax warmer to remove any residual wax. This helps prevent scent contamination and ensures optimal fragrance release. 4. Break Off Desired Amount: Wax melts usually come in small cubes or shapes. Break off the desired amount based on the size of your wax warmer. Avoid overfilling the dish, as this can lead to overflow and mess. 5. Don't Add Water: Unlike wax candles, wax melts should not be diluted with water. Only add wax melts to the dish of your wax warmer. 6. Melt Responsibly: Place one or more wax melt cubes in the dish of your wax warmer, then turn it on. Allow the wax to melt slowly, releasing its fragrance gradually. Never leave a burning wax warmer unattended. 7. Dispose of Spent Wax Properly: Once the fragrance has dissipated, turn off the wax warmer and allow the wax to solidify. Dispose of the used wax according to local regulations. You can often remove spent wax by gently warming it and wiping it away with a paper towel. 8. Experiment with Mixing Scents: Get creative by mixing different wax melt fragrances to create unique scent combinations. Just be mindful not to overload the warmer with too many melts at once. 9. Clean Regularly: Clean your wax warmer regularly to remove any buildup of wax residue. Follow the manufacturer's instructions for cleaning and maintenance. 10. Enjoy Safely: Always follow safety precautions when using wax warmers. Keep them out of reach of children and pets, and ensure they are placed on a stable surface away from flammable materials. By following these care tips, you can maximize the lifespan and enjoyment of your wax melts while creating a safe and pleasant fragrance experience in your home.
1. Tunneling: Issue: The candle burns down the center, leaving excess wax around the edges. Solution: Trim the wick to 1/4 inch before each use. Allow the candle to burn long enough for the wax pool to reach the edges of the container during each use, ensuring an even burn and preventing tunneling. 2. Sooting: Issue: Black smoke or soot forms around the top of the candle jar or wax warmer. Solution: Trim the wick to 1/4 inch before each use to prevent excessive smoking. Ensure the candle or wax warmer is placed on a stable surface away from drafts that may cause the flame to flicker and produce soot. Avoid burning candles or wax melts in a room with poor ventilation. 3. Uneven Burning: Issue: The candle or wax melt burns unevenly, with one side melting faster than the other. Solution: Rotate the candle or wax warmer periodically while burning to promote even wax distribution. Trim the wick to 1/4 inch before each use to maintain a consistent flame. 4. Fragrance Fading Over Time: Issue: The fragrance of the candle or wax melt diminishes over time. Solution: Store candles and wax melts in airtight containers or packaging to preserve fragrance integrity. Use candles and wax melts within their recommended shelf life for optimal fragrance potency. Avoid storing candles in areas with strong odors that may interfere with the scent.
