You only need to light one side of the wood wick. Let the rest of it light naturally.
If you ignore everything else, please follow through with this one. When you burn your candle for the first time, be sure to let the wax burn all the way to the edges before blowing it out. Trust me, you'll regret it, if you don't.
Trim the wick to 1/4" before each use, trying to keep the wax as clean as possible. It will help the candle burn better and help it not smoke as much.
Avoid burning your candle for more than 3 to 4 hours at a time. I can feel you rolling your eyes.
Never leave your candle unattended - as you walk outside with your book.
Please keep it out of reach of little fingers and tails.
