Candle care

Start by lighting your wood wick candle as you would with any candle. Hold the flame to the wick for 10-20 seconds to allow it to catch properly. Due to natural variations in the wood, the initial lighting might take a moment longer than with traditional cotton wicks. Be patient and ensure the wick has ignited fully before moving on.

After each burn, wood wick candles often accumulate a layer of burnt wood at the tip of the wick, which can hinder re-lighting. Before you light the candle again, carefully trim the burnt wood off using wick trimmers. Alternatively, you can use your fingers to pinch and remove the burnt tip. Make sure to do this when the wick is cool to avoid burns. This maintenance is crucial to ensure your candle lights easily every time.

Once you’ve trimmed the wick and cleared any debris, you’re ready to relight your candle. This clean environment ensures that the flame can easily catch and burn smoothly, enhancing your overall experience. Light your candle, sit back, and enjoy the unique ambiance that only a wood wick can provide. This careful maintenance not only extends the candle's lifespan but also maximizes your enjoyment with each use.
