| CANDLE CARE |
| Never place candles in close proximity to flammable material. A least 4” should separate burning candles from one another. Avoid grouping too many burning candles together. Do not move burning candles. Only relocate candles when the wax has hardened. The liquid wax pool should be kept clean, i.e. no used matches, pieces of burned wick, etc. Candle residue can either be melted down and cast into new candles, or made into wax sand using a kitchen grater. Never place a candle near a radiator or a chimney. Wax residue on the candlestick is easier to remove after the candle has been placed in the freezer for about one hour. Spots of wax can be removed from textiles using an iron warmed to the temperature appropriate for the material and absorbent paper. Spots of wax on furniture can be effectively removed by warming with a hair-drier and soaking up with a paper towel while liquid. Clean afterwards with vinegar diluted with water. Clean dusty candles with a fuss-free cloth saturated with spirit. Candles stored in the freezer for a short time burn longer. Enjoy nice hours by romantic candlelight. Your Austrian Atelier Team. |
| Dear Candle Lover, To ensure that our quality candles bring you pleasure for a long time, please observe the following instructions: If the flame begins to flicker, use a pair of scissors to shorten the wick in order to avoid smoke. Ideally, the wick should be between 3/8" and 5/8" long while it is burning. Burning candles are a fire hazard that must be cared for and never left unattended. Use a special lighter (Spaghetti), if the wick of the candle cannot be reached with a normal lighter or match. Dripping candles should be extinguished and relit after the wax hardens. Always place candles on a non-flammable surface as uneven or incomplete burning (dripping) can never be completely excluded. Candles never burn straight and quietly in a draft, even non-drip candles begin to smoke or to drip. Never extinguish burning candles with water. To extinguish the flame, dip it into the burning candle’s liquid wax and lift it out again. Then, it is primed for the next lighting. If the flame threatens to "die", carefully pour out a little liquid wax but never do this by making a hole in the candle. A burning wick can be carefully bent sideways if the candle starts to burn on one side. Never bend or even break a wick that has become rigid. |
