Candle Burning Tips

Can I reuse the container after I have finished burning the candle?

Certainly.  If you have wax left in the container, you can remove the wax by scooping it out with a knife.  If desired, use the leftover wax in a tart melter.  Soak the container in warm soapy water and wash as you would any other glass. The wick is attached to the bottom of the glass with an adhesive that is easily removed with a pair of pliers or tweezers.  Our Tureen jars make perfect storage containers for many different items and you will be helping the environment by recycling the jars instead of adding them to a landfill.

What is the best way to care for my candle wick?

Always keep wicks trimmed to 1/4" to keep candles burning correctly. Soy candles do not emit toxins but if the wick is too long or the candle is burned more that 3 hours, soot from the wick may accumulate on the jars. This is NOT the same as the toxic soot left from paraffin candles but it can still be unsightly.  Keep your candles burning nicely by adhering to our wick trimming guidelines.

Have a Great Monday
