Candle Safety

Candles can be a great addition to your home or workspace, but it's important to use them safely to avoid accidents. Here are some tips for candle safety:

1. Never leave a burning candle unattended. Always extinguish candles before leaving a room or going to sleep.

2. Keep candles away from flammable materials, such as curtains, bedding, or paper.

3. Place candles on a stable and heat-resistant surface, such as a candle holder or a ceramic dish.

4. Keep candles out of the reach of children and pets.

5. Don't burn candles all the way down. Stop using a candle when it has about 2 inches of wax left.

6. Trim the wick to ¼ inch before lighting a candle to prevent excess smoke and soot.

7. Use candle snuffers or a spoon to extinguish a candle. Blowing out a candle can cause hot wax to splatter.

8. Use caution when burning candles in drafty areas, such as near windows or doors. The flame may flicker and increase the risk of fire.

By following these safety tips, you can enjoy the ambiance and fragrance of candles without risking your safety or the safety of your loved ones.
