How to light decorative candles correctly

Light candles by first placing them on a candlestick or saucer, without placing them directly on a table or any other flammable surface.

This will prevent damage and stains on the table and will be safer.

It is better to use metal or ceramic products as a stand.

Also, do not leave lit candles unattended. There should be a distance between two burning candles.

You can light candles at any time of the day, whenever you want.

Stylish and classic, decorative candles are a beautiful home accessory that adds a cozy touch.

Before lighting a candle, you must remove all labels, decorations and fittings from it.

You need to light the candle with matches. This is not only atmospheric, but also correct.

Only with matches you will be able to keep the candlestick in its original form, without black traces of soot.

How to put out candles correctly

In order to extinguish a candle, you should cover it with some object, preventing the flow of oxygen.

This method will help prevent the wick from smoldering, which usually gives off an unpleasant odor when you blow out the candle.
