Candle Safety Tips for a Cozy Home

Candles can create a warm and inviting atmosphere, but it's important to use them safely to prevent accidents. At Franklin Candles, we prioritize safety and want to share some essential tips for enjoying your candles responsibly. Follow these guidelines to ensure a cozy and safe environment.

 

Candle Safety Tips:
1. Keep Away from Flammable Materials: Place candles on a stable, heat-resistant surface, away from curtains, paper, and other flammable objects.
2. Never Leave Unattended: Always extinguish candles before leaving the room or going to sleep.
3. Trim the Wick: Keep the wick trimmed to 1/4 inch to prevent excessive flame and soot buildup.
4. Use a Snuffer: Use a candle snuffer to extinguish the flame instead of blowing it out, which can cause hot wax to splatter.
5. Keep Out of Reach: Ensure candles are out of reach of children and pets to prevent accidents.
6. Use Appropriate Holders: Use candle holders that are designed to safely contain the candle and catch any dripping wax.

 

Conclusion:
Safety is paramount when enjoying candles. By following these simple tips, you can create a cozy and inviting atmosphere while ensuring the well-being of your home and loved ones.
