Candle Care
Storing and traveling with candles. Candles are sensitive to light and temperature, so be careful when storing them for any extended period of time. To avoid color fading, melting, or cracking store them in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight or fluorescent light. Storage temperature should not be allowed to exceed 80�F. Exposure to moisture may inhibit relighting. Follow these guidelines when traveling with candles also. Do not keep candles in trunk or in sunlight, as they may melt, distort, or discolor.
Cleaning candles. Should the mouth of the jar candle become blackened while burning, extinguish the candle and carefully wipe the jar's rim with a dry paper towel. To avoid such blackenings, keep the wick trimmed to 1/4" at all times (see burning instructions). Pillars may be buffed clean with an old nylon stocking.
Removing hardened wax from holders or potpourri burners. Place the holder in the freezer for about 30 minutes or until wax has loosened, then carefully pop out with your fingers. Be very careful as the glass can crack or break while removing wax. |
