SINGLE WICK CANDLE These candles are love at first spark. With up to 30-40 hours of burn time, varying levels of rich, enveloping scent-ensity, and tons of style. HOW TO GET THE PERFECT BURN Prior to each lighting trim the wick to ¼ inch. On your first light, allow the entire surface of wax to melt — minimum of 3 hours. Never let it burn for more than 4 hours. Discontinue use when there is only ¼ inch of wax left in the vessel. Ensure the wick is centered. Always allow wax to harden before relighting, touching, or moving.
