How to Burn Herbaria Candles

For safety and to make them last as long as possible

• Keep wicks trimmed to 1/4" for the best flame.
• Always try to achieve a full melt pool—liquid all the way across, before extinguishing the candle. The first burn will determine how the candle will melt for the rest of its life. Each time you light it, burn for about an hour. This will prevent tunneling and allow the candle to burn its brightest for as long as possible.
• Never burn a candle for more than four hours.
• Keep debris out of the candle.
• A “mushroom” shape can develop on the end of your wick. Trim it before use.
• Burn candles in a well-ventilated room, away from drafts.
• Keep candles at least 3” apart.
• Burn on a level, non-flammable surface.
• Unless fully cooled, don’t move or touch the candle container.
