Troubleshooting
Candle will not stand upright
Ensure the candle base is properly inserted into a snug-fitting candle holder. If the base is too wide, you can gently shave a small amount off the bottom or warm it slightly to help it fit.
Uneven burning or dripping wax
Trim the wick to 1/4 inch before lighting. Burn the candle in a draft-free area. Ensure the candle is standing straight and the wax pool is not disturbed.
Flame is too small or flickers excessively
Trim the wick if it's too long. If flickering, ensure the candle is not exposed to drafts from windows, fans, or air vents.
