Directions:

Place your candle on a stable, flat, heat resistant surface and away from drafts and flammable items. Trim candle wick(s) to 1/4" before each use for a clean burn. Always allow enough time for the candle wax to melt to the edges preventing tunneling. Avoid burning your candle for more than 4 hours at a time. Discard when a 1/2 inch of solid wax remains.

Warning:

Never leave a burning candle unattended, always extinguish fully. Always keep out of the reach of children and pets.
