Pillar Burning Tips
Use a Pillar Plate
Pillars may be burned free standing on a level and solid heat resistance surface. However, we recommend using a pillar plate or pillar holder when burning solid and honeycomb beeswax pillar candles to keep your surfaces free of any accidentally spilled wax or problems due to the heat of the candle.
Burn Pillars for Extended Periods of Time
Burn pillars roughly 1 to 1.5 hours per inch in diameter -example (3" pillar should be burned for at least 3 to 4.5 hours per session.) Burning for extend time ensures that the wick burns the candle evenly out to the edge. This also helps to avoid tunneling and relighting issues.
Hug Your Beeswax Candles
Occasionally it is necessary to gently press the edges of the candle towards the center of the candle to ensure that all of the beeswax burns properly. Do this carefully as your candle is burning or immediately after extinguishing it.
Keep the Wick Trimmed to 1/4"
It's important to trim the wick during or immediately after burning your candle. The wick itself becomes potentially fragile when cooled due to the amount of beeswax still remaining in the wick. Trimming a cold wick may break the wick off, making relighting it difficult.
It's extra special to use these candles knowing they are locally crafted from start to finish with additional environmental and health benefits
