Tips for the wooden wicks that offer a cozy, crackling ambiance:

• When lighting your candle for the first time, light the wick where the wax meets the wick for several seconds – not at the top of the wick.
• Always trim your wick before each use, to 1/4 of an inch, and remove all charred wood from previous burns. If the wick is too long, the flame may become too high. Simply blow out your candle, allow the wax time to cool, then trim your wick shorter and re-light.
• Allow the melt pool to reach the edges of the container before extinguishing – this helps prevent tunneling, which can impact how well the candle burns.
• If when burning the candle for a long period of time you notice the flame height getting too high, it may be necessary to trim back your wick. The flame will then return to its proper optimal height.
