3. Refrigerate the candles Did you
know that cold candles will burn slower. To cool you candle, first wrap in foil or cling wrap to prevent the wick from absorbing any moisture. Pop them in the fridge for about an hour and light! Make sure you don’t put them in the freezer instead. They will break!
4. Burn the candles longer Especially, for pillar candles, make
sure you burn them for at least one hour for every inch in diameter.
Skip this step and you’ll end up burning a tunnel through your
candle! 5. Always extinguish the flame A candle snuffer works best
to blow out the candle. If you don’t have a candle snuffer readily available, you can blow out the candle by placing an index finger in front of the flame and blowing gently. This causes the air to surround the
flame and minimizes splattering of hot wax from the wax pool.
