Candle Care & Safety

Get the most out of your candle by burning responsibly To ensure their safe use, please follow these guidelines to keep Copper Cactus Collective candles a bright spot in your life. The seller and/or manufacturer is not responsible for misuse.

General Candle Safety and Burning

Place on a protected, heat-resistant, dry surface, away from anything that can catch fire, and out of reach of children and pets.

Never leave burning candles unattended. Keep them within sight at all times.

Always burn your candle in a draft-free area.

Ensure that there is enough air space around your candle. Do not burn under a shelf, as this will inhibit the amount of oxygen that is getting to the wick of the candle and can cause the candle to not burn properly.

If smoking occurs, extinguish candle, trim wick, remove trimmings, and relight.

Keep the wick centered.

Keep the wax pool free of wick trimmings, matches, or any other combustible materials.

Teach everyone in the family the rules of safe candle use.

Care of Your Copper Cactus Candles

Handle glass jar candles with care, as glass containers are fragile.

Discontinue use if glass jar is cracked, chipped or broken.

Do not refill with wax.

Do not allow the flame to touch the side of the glass jar.

The glass jar may become hot. Handle carefully.

To minimize wax left on the sides of the container, burn 3 hours at a time; it is normal for some wax to be left. The amount will vary based on burning conditions.

Prevent possible heat damage to the counter/surface by discontinuing use when 1/2″ of wax remains. Burning past this point can present a fire hazard.
