Candle Care Tips

Before Burning Your Candle

  • Trim the Wick: Always trim the wick to 1/4 inch before lighting. This helps prevent

uneven burning, soot, and excessive flame size.

  • Check for Debris: Make sure the wax surface is clear of any debris (like wick trimmings

or matches) to avoid a fire hazard.

During the Burn

  • Let the Wax Pool: On the first burn, allow the wax to melt across the entire surface to prevent "tunneling"

and maximize the candle's lifespan.

  • Burn Time: Do not burn your candle for more than 3-4 hours at a time. Overburning can cause the wick

to mushroom, leading to uneven burning or soot.

  • Place Safely: Always place your candle on a heat-resistant, stable surface and keep it

away from drafts, flammable objects, and out of reach of children and pets.

After the Burn

  • Extinguish Properly: Use a candle snuffer to extinguish the flame instead of blowing it out. This minimizes

smoke and prevents hot wax from splattering.

  •  Recenter the Wick: While the wax is still soft, gently recenter the wick to prepare it for the next burn.

  •  Allow to Cool: Always let the candle cool completely before handling or moving it.

General Candle Safety

  • Never leave a burning candle unattended.

  • Stop using your candle when only 1/2 inch of wax remains at the bottom to prevent overheating the container.

  • Store your candles in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to preserve the fragrance and prevent discoloration.

Wax Melt Care Tips

Getting Started with Your Wax Melts

  • Choose the Right Warmer: Use a wax warmer or melter specifically designed for wax melts. Electric warmers or tea light warmers work best, depending on your preference.

  • Break into Pieces: If your wax melts comes in a block, snap off one or two pieces and place them in a warmer's dish. Avoid overfilling to prevent spills.

During Use

  • Monitor the Melt: Wax melts don't evaporate; the fragrance will fade over time. Replace the wax when you can no longer smell the scent. 

  • Use in a Safe Location: Place your warmer on a stable, heat-resistant surface away from flammable objects, drafts, and out of reach of children and pets.

  • Do Not Add Water or Oil: Wax melts are designed to be used as-is -- never add water, oils, or other liquids.

After Use

  • Turn Off the Warmer: Always turn off your electric warmer or extinguish the tea light candle once you're finished using it. Allow the wax to cool completely.

  •  Clean the Warmer Dish: Once the wax has hardened, gently remove it from the dish. Use a warm, damp cloth to clean the dish if necessary, but avoid using abrasive materials.

Wax Melt Safety

  • Never leave a wax warmer unattended while in use.

  • Keep away from direct sunlight or high heat when storing wax melts to perserve their fragrance.

  • Handle melted wax carefully—it can be very hot and may cause burns if spilled.

Pro Tips for the Best Experience

  • Mix & Match: Experiment by combining different wax melts to create custom scents.

  • Timing Matters: Use your warmer in sessions of 2-4 hours to maintain a steady fragrance release.

  • Refresh the Scent: If you love a scent but it's fading, add a fresh wax melt to boost the aroma.

Carpet Deodorizer Care & Usage Tips

Before You Begin

  • Test First: Before using on your entire carpet, test the deodorizer on a small, inconspicuous are to ensure it doesn't discolor or damage your carpet.

  • Vacuum First: For best results, vacuum your carpet thoroughly to remove loose dirt and debris..

How to Use Your Carpet Deodorizer

  • Apply Evenly: Sprinkle a thin even layer of the deodorizer powder over the carpet. Avoid clumping for better coverage.

  • Let It Sit: Allow the deodorizer to sit for 10-20 minutes to absorb odors and freshen your carpet. For stronger odors, leave it for longer.

  • Vacuum Thoroughly: Use a high-suction vacuum to remove all traces of the deodorizer. This helps lift away the powder and any trapped odors.

Additional Tips for Best Results

  • Use Regularly: Incorporate carpet deodorizer into your cleaning routine to keep carpets fresh and odor-free.

  • Focus on High-Traffic Areas: Pay extra attention to areas with heavy foot traffic, as they tend to trap the most dirt and odors.

  • Pet-Friendly Considerations: If you have pets, choose a deodorizer that's safe for them and be sure to remove all residue to avoid potential contact.

Storage & Maintenance

  • Seal Tightly: Store your carpet deodorizer in cool, dry place with the lid tightly closed to maintain its freshness.

  • Keep Away from Moisture: Avoid exposure to humidity or water, as this can cause the powder to clump.

  • Out of Reach: Keep the product out of reach of children and pets when not in use.

Safety Notes

  • Avoid direct inhalation of the powder during application or removal.

  • Do not use on wet or damp carpets, as this may cause clumping or difficulty vacuuming.

  • Always read and follow the specific instructions provided on your product's label.
