WHAT IS THE BEST WAY TO USE MY NEW HAPPY EVER AFTER SCENTS CANDLE?

Because our wood wick candles are unique, they can occasionally display different burning characteristics than other candles. Here are a few simple steps to ensure the best burn every time:

    • Light the wick all the way across, not just on one end. This helps the candle to burn evenly.
    • Allow the candle to burn until the wax melts out to all the edges of the vessel. This may take about 30 to 60 minutes. The flame height may vary at times and occasionally even appear to self-extinguish, but it's OK. Even if you are experiencing a “low” flame, it will continue to heat and the flame height will return. The recommended burn time is 3-4 hours.
    • Keep the wick trimmed to ¼ inch. If the candle begins to smoke, or if the flame height is greater than 1½ inches, gently blow out the candle, allow the wick and wax to cool, and trim the wick. Remove all wick trimmings before relighting.
    • Keep the candle away from drafts, such as ceiling fans, air conditioners or breezes.
    • Never move or handle the candle while burning. This is very unsafe, and pouring or removing liquid wax from the vessel will cause the wick to extinguish.
    • For your safety, When there is approximately 3/8 inch of wax remaining at the bottom of the vessel, extinguish the wick and recycle the tin according to your local recycling centre instructions.
