How to use it well
◊
When to light
Light when you need to reset - after work, after a long day, or when a room needs breathing room.
⊕
First burn rule
Burn for at least 2 hours on first light to create a full melt pool and prevent tunnelling.

A window open just a crack, the sound of rainfall, and a warm cup of something dark.

Candle care
Four rules. Always.
01
Trim the wick
Trim to 5mm before every burn. Long wicks cause soot, uneven burn, and an oversized flame.
02
First burn: 2 hours
Always burn for at least 2 hours on first light - creates a full melt pool and prevents tunneling for good.
03
Stop at ½ inch
Never burn below the last half inch of wax. Extinguish, let cool, then repurpose the vessel.
04
Store away from heat
Direct sunlight and heat fade fragrance and soften wax. Store in a cool, shaded spot between burns.
