Candle Accessories You Need

1. Wick Trimmer

A wick trimmer keeps your candle wick at the perfect length (¼ inch) to prevent soot and uneven burning.

2. Candle Snuffer

Snuffers help extinguish your candle without blowing wax everywhere or creating smoke.

3. Wick Dipper

A wick dipper allows you to push the wick into melted wax to extinguish the flame without smoke while priming the wick for the next burn.

4. Long-Handled Lighter

Ditch regular lighters—opt for a rechargeable electric lighter for a safer and eco-friendly way to light your candles.

5. Candle Warmer

For when you want the fragrance without the flame, a candle warmer is a great addition to your setup.

Tips for the Ultimate Candle Experience

✔ Trim the Wick before every burn to ensure an even flame.
✔ Let It Pool – Always allow the wax to melt fully across the surface to prevent tunneling.
✔ Place Candles Strategically – Use different scents in different rooms for a unique home fragrance experience.
✔ Store Candles Properly – Keep them in a cool, dry place to preserve their scent.
✔ Repurpose Your Jars – Clean out old candle jars and use them for storage or decor.
