Candle Care
Forget Me Not Candles wants you to experience the maximum enjoyment and pleasure from our candles. We take great pride in making them using only the finest quality ingredients and materials. However, it's very important that you burn candles safely. Please follow these guidelines to maximize your burn time.
-
Remove all packaging before lighting.
-
Place on a protected, heat-resistant, dry surface, away from anything that can catch fire.
-
Keep out of reach of children and pets.
-
Keep wick(s) trimmed to 1/8" at all times. (this may seem short to you- but it is important to keep them short to avoid soot or smoke.
-
If smoking occurs, blow candle out. Trim wick(s), remove trimmings, and relight. If wicks are trimmed, check for a draft. When a candle burns too quickly (from a draft)- it can create smoke.
-
Keep the wax pool free of wick trimmings, matches, or any combustible material. Keep the wick centered.
-
Never leave burning candles unattended. Keep them within sight at all times.
-
Handle with care; glass containers are fragile. Do not use if the jar is cracked, chipped or scratched.
-
Do not allow the flame to touch the side of the container. The jar may become hot. Handle carefully.
-
To minimize wax left on the sides of the container, burn all the way across- everytime. (The first time is called the memory burn. It is especially important to let the candle burn until the wax pool reaches the edges or everytime you light your candle- it will only burn that far across)
-
Prevent possible heat damage to the counter/surface by discontinuing use when 1/2" of wax remains. Only burn in a suitable holder, or on a plate or other fire and heat resistant surface.
