Before each use, trim the wick to about 1/4 inch in length.

Position your candle in a stable, draft-free area.

When not in use, store your candles in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.
**Avoid Burning for Too Long**
To prolong the life of your candle, avoid burning it for more than 4 hours at a time.

**Clean the Candle Holder**
If your candle is in a container, periodically clean the holder to remove any wax residue.
**Monitor for Safety**
Always keep an eye on your candle while it’s burning. Never leave it unattended, especially around pets or children.
