Always place candles on a heat-protected surface before lighting them. This simple step ensures the safety of your surroundings and prevents any accidental damage or fire hazards.

Always remember to extinguish your candles safely after use. Make sure to blow out the flame gently or use a candle snuffer to avoid any accidents. Additionally, it is important to know when your candle is finished. As a general rule, when there is only 1cm of wax left in the bottom of the container, it's time to stop using it. This prevents the flame from reaching the bottom and potentially causing damage. By following these guidelines, you can ensure both the safety and longevity of your candles.
