Candle Safety
Failure to follow the safety tips could result in fire hazard or injury.
There is a warning label on all of Pauper's Candles
that can be followed as well.

Before burning Pauper's Candles, remove the fragrance label.  
Be sure to  keep the wicks centered and trimmed to between 1/8 and 1/4
inch before each burn.  
This assists in even burning and keeps the flame from becoming too large.
Keep the wax free from matches, wick trimmings,or any flammable materials.
The containers can become hot and should be set on a trivet to protect your
furniture and should be placed on an even surface.
One should not relight their candle once the metal wick tabs are showing or
there is about 1/2 inch of wax left in the jar.
The lids should be put back on the candle only after the candle is blown out
and has had time to cool.
Keep out of reach from children and pets, and away from flammable objects.
Keep away from drafts and
Never leave a burning candle unattended.
If the flame is too high, it is suggested to blow out the candle and trim the
wick a little and then relight the candle.  
For best results in burning
Pauper's Candles....
The first step before burning our candles is to remove any tags
or ribbon on the candle.
Pauper's Candles burn best when the wax is allowed to pool completely
across the jars, before blowing them out.  
This allows the melt pool to be complete and then allows for an even burn
down the candle jar and prevents tunneling.
When the wicks are trimmed to about 1/8 inch before each burn, there is
less soot residue on the candle jar.
If after burning our candle for long periods of time there appears to be a
"mushroom" effect on the wicks, we suggest blowing the candle out and
trimming the wick to about 1/8 inch and then one can relight the candle
immediately or wait.  
The wicks may not need to be trimmed every time, but one should check.
Our candle burn times are 10 hours for our Mini Candle, 20-25 hours for our
Small Candle, 35-40 hours for our Medium Candle and 45-50 hours for our
Large Candle.  
Happy and Safe Burning.
