SAFETY TIPS:
Extinguish all candles
before leaving the room or going to sleep
Keep candles away from
items that can catch fire like clothing, books, and curtains
Keep candles and all open
flames away from combustible material
Use candle holders that
are sturdy, won’t tip over easily, are made from a material that cannot
burn, and are large enough to collect dripping wax
During power outages
avoid carrying candles, use flashlights instead
Keep candle wicks trimmed
to one-quarter inch and extinguish taper and pillar candles when they get
to within two inches of the holder. Votives and containers should be
extinguished before the last half-inch of wax starts to melt.
