Abigail Stone, the founder and CEO of Otherland, shares the nine most common candle mistakes.
Mushrooming is one of the reasons that regular wick trimming is essential. “Probably the biggest mistake that people make when burning candles is not trimming your wick,” Stone says. “You never want to have a lit candle with a mushroom wick. Wicks should always be trimmed to about an eighth to a quarter of an inch, nice and neat. You need to do this before every burn.
You also want to keep the area around the candle clear and on a heat-resistant surface, and away from children, dogs, cats, anything that could potentially interact with it. Keep it in your sight always. Never leaving it unattended is, of course, critical.”Whether you wait a long time between burns or haven’t lit it up yet, it doesn’t take long for a candle to start gathering dust on the surface of the wax.
