How to care for you candles!
Just like most of the things we use on a daily basis, candles need care.
It seems simple enough to light a candle, get a great fragrance and be done - but there's a lot more to know about your candles to get the best experience possible!
-
Wicks need love - After your first use, before you light your candle again - make sure to trim your wick to about 1/4 in before your next use - this will give you a cleaner burn and give your candle HOURS more of burn life!
-
A full burn is better - If you light your candles for short periods of time, it's best to light them until they burn straight across (make sure you can see a pool of wax hitting all sides of the glass container before blowing it out) this will give you an even pour, no more wasted wax!
-
Reuse that container! We use only the best glassware, clean it out with a little heat (we pop our glass in the oven for a few min at 200 degrees, then wipe out with a paper towel, make sure to wear kitchen gloves!). Then check out our recommendations for reusing your Feya containers around the house in this our blog, Recycling Never Smelled So Good.
