Here are some tips on how to burn a candle properly:

1. **Trim the Wick**: Before lighting your candle, trim the wick to about 1/4 inch. This helps ensure a cleaner burn and prevents the flame from becoming too large.

2. **Let the Wax Pool**: Each time you burn your candle, allow the wax to melt across the entire surface to the edges of the container. This helps prevent tunneling and ensures an even burn.

3. **Burn Time**: It’s best not to burn a candle for more than four hours at a time. After that, extinguish the flame, let the candle cool, trim the wick again, and then you can relight it.

4. **Avoid Drafts**: Keep your burning candle away from drafts, vents, or air currents. This will help prevent uneven burning, sooting, and excessive dripping.

5. **Safety First**: Never leave a burning candle unattended. Keep candles out of reach of children and pets, and never burn a candle near anything that can catch fire.

6. **Extinguishing the Candle**: Use a candle snuffer to extinguish your candle. This prevents the wick from moving and the wax from splattering. Avoid blowing out your candle, as this can cause wax to splatter and the wick to smoke.

Following these steps will help you enjoy your candle safely and make it last longer!
