Know before you buy
While burn time depends on environmental factors like drafts and room temperature, a 4oz candle of this size generally provides approximately 20 to 25 hours of burn time.
Yes, wood wicks perform best when trimmed to about 1/8 to 1/4 inch before each use. Removing the charred bits from the previous burn ensures a clean, steady flame and prevents excess soot.
Absolutely. Their compact 3.2-inch diameter and 4oz size make them ideal for smaller areas where you want a subtle, consistent fragrance without overwhelming the space.
To prevent tunneling, always allow the wax to melt all the way to the edges of the tin during your first burn. This usually takes about an hour and ensures the candle burns evenly for the rest of its life.
Yes, the metal tins are durable and can be repurposed. Once the wax is gone, you can clean out the remaining residue with warm, soapy water and use the tin to store small items like jewelry, hair ties, or travel-sized toiletries.
