Cedar Candle Care

In order to make the most of your Cedar candle, remember to:

 

SLOW DOWN

When lighting your Cedar candle, it can be nice to take a moment to enjoy the ritual. A little-known fact about wax is that is has a memory, which occasionally leads to tunnelling. This can be avoided by letting your candle burn for a couple of hours, giving the wax chance to reach the edges of the container. The recommended burn time is four hours, and please don’t leave your candle unattended.

ALWAYS TRIM THE WICK

Prior to relighting your Cedar candle, try to remember to trim your wick. Wick trimmers can be used or you can simply pinch it away with your fingers. Ideally your wick should be no longer than 5mm.

RE-USE AND RECYLE

Once your Cedar candle has finished, any residual wax washes out easily with hot, soapy water. Your jar can now be re-used for decorative purposes or perhaps to house a small plant. Cedar’s new Another Place collection containers are of durable stoneware – they make lovely little coffee cups.

SHARE YOUR MOMENTS OF CALM

It’s really lovely to see where our hand-poured candles end up, so please feel free to tag Cedar in any pictures on social media.
