Frequently Asked Questions
How should I care for my candle?
To ensure your candle burns slowly, at it's best and (most importantly) safely, follow these steps below:
- When lighting for the first time, please burn your candle for a minimum of 3 hours allowing the candle to burn right to the edges of the glass. This will encourage the candle to burn evenly and avoid tunnelling behaviours.
- Avoid burning your candle for any longer than 3-4 hours at a time.
- When the candle is cooled, trim the wick down before the next use to 1/4 inch (5mm).
- Ensure that you burn the candle away from flammable objects and on an even heat resistant surface.
- Never leaving a burning candle unattended and keep out of reach of pets and children.
Can I wash my cushions?
Absolutely! Just ensure you follow these steps to ensure your cushion covers stay as good as new when washing:
- Always wash your covers at a low temperature on a gentle cycle (30 degrees).
- Ensure that you turn the covers inside out when washing and ironing.
- Do not tumble try the covers.
- Never wring the covers dry and always dry flat.
- If ironing ensure that this is done on a low to medium heat.
- Do not bleach the covers.
