Tips and tricks for optimal candle burning
When lighting your candle for the first time, make sure to burn until you reach a full melt pool — that is, until the melted wax has reached the edges of the vessel — approximately 3 hours for our 8 oz candles and 1 hour for our mini candles. Candles have memory and if you don’t burn to a full melt pool in your first burn, the candle can possibly “tunnel,” which means it will burn down instead of out and down.
Always make sure to trim your wick to ¼ inch before each burn as well for optimal burn time. Your 8 oz candle has an estimated burn time of 40 to 50 hours, while your mini candle has an estimated burn time of 12 to 16 hours.
Since your candle has been individually crafted out of natural, non-toxic ingredients, some slight discoloration, bubbles and bumps might occur, which is natural and nothing to worry about. The candle itself and its cozy scent will not be affected in any way.
