DAMN PLASTIC CANDLE

The first time you burn your candle, have it lit for at least 3 hours, or until the melt pool hits the inside of the mason jar glass. Every time you light the candle after, burn until the melt pool has re-established itself to the edge. This will prevent tunneling.

.

Trim your wick! If you are experiencing problems with smoking or your wick staying lit, it usually means your wick needs a trim. Wicks should be kept at 1/4" at all times. Your wick should be trimmed every 4 hours of burn time. This helps keep the flame the appropriate size for safety, and the longest possible burn time.

.

Keep your candle out of direct exposure to sunlight and light rays for prolonged exposure of time. For example, If left on a windowsill for a long time with daily sunlight eposure, you will start to notice the candle wax turning to a shade of yellow, This is an effect of the naturalness of our wax.  

When your candle has finished its journey, stick in the freezer overnight. Crack the wax with a knife and remove remaining wax. Wash out with soap and hot water! Now you have a brand new mason jar to reuse!

To prevent fire, burn within sight. Have distance from things that catch fire. Keep away from children and pets. Burn on heat safe surface. For best results, burn until wax melts evenly across container not exceeding 4 hours. Keep wax pool free of debris. Avoid drafts, AC's, and fans. Never touch or move a hot candle with your bare hands!
