Candle Safety / Care

  • Always burn within sight.
  • Keep away from flammable materials, children, and pets.
  • Place on a heat-resistant, stable surface.
  • Avoid drafts — they cause uneven burning and smoking.
  • Don’t burn more than 4 hours at a time.
  • Never move a candle while it’s lit or the wax is hot.
  • Allow the candle to cool before relighting or moving.
  • Stop burning when ½″ (1 cm) of wax remains.
  • Keep wax free of debris.
  • Keep lid on when not in use to preserve fragrance and prevent dust.

First Burn Instructions

  • The first burn is the most important — it teaches your candle how to melt.
  • This determines how your candle will perform for its entire life.
  • Burn until the wax melts evenly to every edge (about 2-4 hours).
  • Once the melt pool reaches the edges, extinguish the flame and let the wax cool completely before relighting.
  • From then on, your candle will burn evenly and cleanly every time.

Wood Wick Tips

Wood wicks perform differently than cotton, and sometimes they can be a little tricky to re-light. If you are having trouble getting your wick going again:

  • After the first burn, make sure the wick is trimmed and free of any charred wood.
  • Hold your lighter or match at a slight angle toward the base of the wick and allow the flame to “catch” for a few seconds before pulling away.
  • Rotate the candle slowly to help the wax pool soften around the wick.
  • If the flame goes out, gently remove excess ash and try again — clean wood relights more easily once the wax softens.

Legal Note

Please burn responsibly. Follow all candle care and safety guidelines to ensure safe use. Burn candles at your own risk. Two Guys Making Candles is not liable for any misuse, accidents, injury, or damage resulting from improper candle burning.
