Using these candles is easy. Just place them in a standard taper candlestick holder. When lighting, use a long - reach lighter or match to avoid burning your fingers. Always keep them away from flammable materials and out of reach of children and pets. To maintain their quality, store them in a cool, dry place. Avoid exposing them to direct sunlight or extreme temperatures as this may cause the wax to melt or deform. Enjoy the warm, long - lasting glow these candles provide for your special occasions.
