Basics of Candle Safety

One of the most important things here at Viking bee is safety. so this week lets take a look at some pointers for proper candle safety. 

Basic Candle Safety

• Candles should never be burnt out of sight
• You should always keep candles away from Drafts, Vents, Ceiling fans and air currents.
• You should never touch of move a candle when the wax is liquid
• Never burn a candle directly on or near anything flammable
• Its always a good idea to use a candle holder that is designed for candle use, or is made of a nonflammable material.
• Always ensure candle holders are placed on a stable, heat-resistant surface.
• Keep candles out of reach of children and pets
• Keep wax pool free of wick trimmings, matches and debris at all times.
• Candle wicks should be trimmed to 1 quarter inch each time before burning
  • This will also help prevent black smoke from raising up from the candle wick.
• Make sure all candles are completely out before leaving the room.
• It’s a good idea to straighten the wick after it has been extinguished.

so there you have it,
