How do I properly care for my candles(s)?
All proper care instructions are located on the warning label of each candle (this can be found on the bottom of jar candles or the box for pillar candles).
How do I avoid an excessive or large wick flame (dancing flame)?
It is important to keep the candle wick trimmed to 1/4 inch prior to lighting the wick (a properly trimmed wick will also help avoid black smoke/soot from occurring while burning the candle).
How do I properly put out a flame after burning a candle?
The best way to put out a candle flame is by using a wick dipper to dip the wick into the wax (avoiding the usual smoke that is produced when blowing out a candle - this method also allows for the candle wick to be coated with wax for an easier lighting during next use). Wick dippers can be purchased here on this site found here.
What do I do if my package is damaged?
Unfortunately, there is a possibility that your order becomes damaged while it is in transit. To resolve an issue with damaged items, please contact our support team by email here.

How do I fix a wick that’s cut too short?
STEP 1: MELT
The first step to fix a wick that’s too short is to soften up the surrounding wax by melting it.
To do this, you’ll need either a heat gun or blow dryer. If you don’t have either of these, a long wand candle lighter will also work — it’ll just take some more time.
Hold your heat gun or blow dryer (on high heat) over the candle wick to start melting the surrounding wax.
If your wick was buried because it’s either tilted, bent, or curled, stop heating the wax once it’s soft and move onto step 2.
If your wick was trimmed too short, keep melting the wax until you have an even layer of liquid wax on the surface before moving on to step 2.
STEP 2: DIG
The next step is to dig out the wick. The way you do this depends on if the length of the wick is too short (over-trimmed) or if the wick was buried (tilted, bent, or curled into the wax).
If your wick was buried, use a pair of tweezers or a Q-tip to nudge the wick back to an upright position, making sure it sticks out above the surface of the wax. Hold it in this position until the wax cools.
This is easier when the wax is soft but not completely melted, so if you’re having trouble just wait until the wax becomes opaque and try again.
If your wick was too short, pour out some of the wax that you melted until there’s about ⅛ to ¼ inch of wick above the surface. You can also use a paper towel to dab and soak up the excess wax to avoid potentially making a mess.
At the end of this step, let the wax cool.
STEP 3: LIGHT IT
The last step is to light your candle again and reset its “memory” by allowing it to evenly melt the entire top layer of wax.
We do this to even out any marks left behind when we dug out the wick in step 2. It also prevents the candle from tunneling the next time you burn it, which can cause your wick to get buried again.
This can take anywhere from 30 minutes to a few hours, depending on the size of your candle. Our general rule of thumb is to let the candle burn for 1 hour for every 1 inch of diameter.
