Safety Tips for Enjoying Mellow Cat Candles
At Mellow Cat Candles, we care about your safety as much as we do about crafting the perfect ambiance. Here are some essential tips to ensure you enjoy your candles responsibly:
1. **Never Leave Unattended**: Always extinguish candles before leaving a room or going to bed. Safety first!
2. **Keep Away from Children and Pets**: Candles should be placed out of reach of curious little ones and furry friends.
3. **Burn on a Heat-Resistant Surface**: Place candles on a stable, heat-resistant surface away from drafts, curtains, and anything flammable.
4. **Trim Your Wick**: Before each burn, trim the wooden wick to approximately 1/4 inch to ensure a clean, even burn and to prevent excessive smoking or flickering.
5. **Avoid Overburning**: Limit burn time to 4 hours per session. This prevents overheating and ensures optimal performance.
6. **Allow Wax to Solidify**: Let the wax cool and solidify before relighting your candle to avoid splattering or uneven burning.
7. **Avoid Moving Lit Candles**: Never move a burning candle. Extinguish flame, let wax cool, then relocate if needed.
8. **Extinguish Properly**: Use a candle snuffer or gently blow out the flame. Avoid using water to extinguish wooden wicks.
9. **Check for Debris**: Remove any wick trimmings or other debris from the wax pool to maintain a clean burn.
10. **Store Candles Safely**: When not in use, store candles in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.
Remember, safety is key to enjoying the cozy glow of Mellow Cat Candles. By following these guidelines, you can create a serene atmosphere with peace of mind.
Happy burning!
