  2. Make sure that you trim the candle’s wicks to ¼” each and every time before you light your candle.
  3. Always burn your candle in a draft-free area. Any draft of wind (ceiling fans, A/C vents, windows, etc.) will make the candle flame flicker and smoke.
  4. When you are trimming your candle wicks, be sure to remove all wick trimmings and debris.
  5. Always burn votives in an appropriate votive holder.
