Frequently Asked Questions

Here are some important tips to follow: This might sound obvious, but it is worth repeating: always use extreme care when burning WoodWick candles. Make sure you do not leave them burning unattended, and make sure there is nothing nearby that could ignite. Make sure the wick is always trimmed down to about 1/8 of an inch. Make sure WoodWick candles are always out of reach of children and pets. The glass container gets hot when the wick is lit, and this can be a hazard to little hands and curious dogs and cats. If your candle is nearly out of wax, stop burning it when there is ¼ of an inch of wax left at the bottom. If you burn the candle all the way through the wax to the bottom, it could cause the glass jar to shatter. WoodWick candles should be burned in a room that is well ventilated but protected from drafts. Do not burn the candles for more than four hours at a time. Extinguish them after four hours, allow them to cool for two hours and then trim the wick again before you relight them. When not in use, WoodWick candles should be stored in a cool, dark and dry place. Avoid placing them in direct sunlight. If left in sunlight or harsh indoor lighting, the candle coloring can fade. If you notice smudges or dust on your candle jar, it can be easily cleaned with a soft cloth or piece of nylon. You can dampen the cloth if you want to. After you have extinguished WoodWick candles, make sure they are not smoking and that the flame is completely out and the wax cooled before you put them away. You should keep the lid on your WoodWick candles after they are cool. That can help prevent dust from getting into the candle or on the wick.

With coconut apricot wax being made mostly of coconut, it makes for a sustainable wax beyond most on the market you see. That's definitely including: soy, beeswax, and of course paraffin. Coconut apricot wax burns longer Coconut in wax is thinly vicious, creating a nice pooling around the wick. Because of its viscosity in the wax, it slows the wick burn. This is where you save the money, honey! A coconut apricot candle the same size as a soy candle can sometimes burn twice as long as most others. On top of that? Soy is not nearly as reusable and helpful to the environment - unlike coconuts. It also has a stronger scent throw Coconuts and apricot create a superb scent throw. One that some say is unbeatable.
