Highly Scented Jar Candles

With scented jar candles, their is no tunneling and soot, and they smell great and burn all the way.  Allow the top layer to liquefy before before blowing it out.  After the candle is out, leave the lid off and it will still smell like it's burning.

What causes candles to smoke and how do I correct it?

A well-made candle will create virtually no smoke when burning properly. However, if the wick becomes too long, or an air current disturbs the flames teardrop shape, small amounts of unburned carbon particles (soot) will escape from the flame as a visible wisp of smoke. Any candle will soot if the flame is disturbed.  To avoid this, always trim to ¼ inch before every use and be sure to place candles away from drafts, vents or air currents. If a candle continually flickers or smokes, it is not burning properly and should be blown out. Allow the candle to cool, trim the wick, make sure the area is draft free, and then re-light.

Candle Tips

Always trim wicks ¼ inches and center it before lighting.

Hold your hand by the candle as you blow it out. (It keeps the hot wax from splattering)

Let candle melt top layer before blowing out.

It is one hour per inch in diameter of candle for burn time.

Never leave candle unattended. Keep candle away from flammable materials

Refrigerating a candle will help them burn slower. Put candle in foil or plastic first to keep moisture from getting into wick.
