Candle Don'ts
- Don’t leave unattended
- Don’t play with the wax or try to move the wax around the jar. This will make the wax uneven and promote uneven burning.
- Don’t burn for more than 4 hours. Your wick can “mushroom” and create a large and unstable flame.
- Don’t forget to trim that wick! Untrimmed wicks lead to popping, smoking, and soot. This is how candles end up looking dirty and full of debris.
- Don’t burn in a small unventilated room.
- Don’t fall asleep with your candle burning.

Candle Burning & Care
Keep the wick trimmed to 1/4 inch at all times. It is suggested to trim the wick every 4 hours of burn time. When wick trimming, you should always extinguish the flame, let the candle come to room temperature, and trim the wick before relighting. I simply trim my wick before lighting each time.
Soy Wax Melts/Sachets Part 1
Place your oil burner in a safe, stable situation, away from drafts and anything flammable and also well out of the reach of children or pets.
Place the soy wax melt pods in the top of a dry oil burner - do not add water. Depending on the size of your oil burner, you may want to place 1-2 pods in the top dish-like section of an oil burner. Please reseal the bag where the soy wax melts are kept to retain the fragrance of the remaining melts.
Light a tea light candle in the base of the oil burner and allow the wax to melt - when melted a delightful aroma will be released into the room
Don't forget to extinguish the tea light candle when leaving the room - never leave it unattended or within reach of children or pets.

Soy Wax Melts/Sachets Part 2
After extinguishing the flame the soy wax melts will cool and it will solidify again, you can either re-use the tart or gently tap the sides of the burner and most times the soy wax melts will pop out. If not place the oil burner in the freezer for a short time and it will easily release - save the solid wax and you can then easily experience a variety of fragrances as your mood changes.
Re-use soy wax melts until no fragrance is released.
Soy wax melts can also be used in an electric oil burner, although based on experience many electric oil burners do not heat the wax as well as a tealight, and thus may not release the fragrance as well.
You can also use your soy wax melts without melting them by using them as natural air fresheners

Car Freshener: How to Use
Unscrew the wooden top and remove the plastic covering to release the fragrance oils. Screw on the wooden lid and flip the bottle upside down so the fragrance oil can saturate the lid to release the fragrance. Hang wherever you would like, for example, on the rearview mirror in your car. If the fragrance is weak, flip the bottle upside down to release more oil to saturate the lid again.
Uses:
~ freshen up the car by hanging it on the rearview mirror
~ freshen up any room (i.e. small bathroom, dorm room, apartment, bedroom & more)
~ decorative ornaments
