How long do scented candles usually burn?

Burn time depends on size and wax type. A small tealight may last 3 to 4 hours, while larger glass candles can burn for 25 hours or more. Always trim the wick before lighting to help it burn evenly and last longer.

Are ceramic candle holders safe for scented candles?

Yes, ceramic holders are heat resistant and ideal for scented candles. They prevent wax spills and protect surfaces. Make sure the holder is on a flat, stable surface before lighting the candle.

What’s the best way to make scented candles last longer?

Allow the candle to melt fully to the edges during the first burn to avoid tunneling. Keep the wick short and avoid placing candles in drafty areas. Store them in a cool place to preserve the fragrance.

Can I reuse glass candle jars?

Yes, once the wax is finished, clean the jar with warm water and mild soap. They can be reused for small plants, cotton pads, or new candle refills. Make sure all wax residue is removed before reuse.

How do tealights differ from regular scented candles?

Tealights are smaller, designed for short use or for creating ambient lighting. They release a lighter scent compared to full-sized candles but are perfect for decorative setups or combining multiple scents in a room.
