Candle Facts & Safety

Store candles in a cool, dark, dry place.

Candle may fade if left in bright light for an extended period of time.  Avoid placing candles where they may be exposed to harsh outdoor light or indoor spotlights. 

Candles should always be burned in or on a candle holder.  Be sure to choose a holder that is heat resistant, sturdy, and large enought to contain any drippings or melted wax.

Never use a knife or other sharp object to remove wax drippings from a glass holder; it might scratch, weaken, or break the glass. 

A candle snuffer is an elegant and safe way to extinguish a candle and avoid wax spatters.
