Candle Care
To ensure the best performance of your candle:
- Burn for 2–4 hours during the first use to establish an even melt pool.
- Trim the wick to approximately ¼ inch before each burn.
- Never burn a candle for more than 4 hours at a time.
- Always burn candles on a heat-resistant surface.
- Never leave a burning candle unattended.
- Keep candles away from children, pets, drafts, and flammable materials.
Failure to follow proper candle care instructions may affect performance and is not considered a product defect.
Resin Art
Each resin piece is handcrafted, making every item unique.
Small variations in color, pattern, texture, or natural air bubbles are part of the artistic process and should not be considered defects.
To care for your resin artwork:
- Clean with a soft, damp microfiber cloth.
- Avoid abrasive cleaners or harsh chemicals.
- Keep away from prolonged direct sunlight and excessive heat to help preserve its finish.
