At MTB Sweet Scents, we prioritize safety to ensure you enjoy our products responsibly. Please read the following safety and burning guidelines before using our candles:

**1. General Safety:

• Keep candles out of reach of children and pets.
• Never leave a burning candle unattended.
• Place candles on a heat-resistant surface away from flammable materials.
• Trim wicks to 1/4 inch before lighting to prevent uneven burning and excessive flame.

2. Burning Instructions:

• For an even burn, allow the candle to create a full melt pool (liquid wax reaching the edges) during the first burn.
• Do not burn candles for more than 4 hours at a time.
• Discontinue use when 1/2 inch of wax remains.

3. Candle Placement:

• Keep candles away from drafts and air vents to prevent uneven burning.
• Place candles at least 3 inches apart to avoid heat transfer.
• Never use candles near combustible materials or in areas with drafts.

4. Container Candles:

• Discontinue use if the container is cracked, chipped, or damaged.
• Do not use containers for purposes other than intended.

5. Pillar and Votive Candles:

• Place pillar and votive candles in appropriate holders designed to catch wax.
• Burn on a heat-resistant surface.

6. Extinguishing:

• Use a candle snuffer to extinguish candles to avoid wax splatter.

• Our scented candles contain fragrance oils. If irritation occurs, discontinue use.
• Keep fragrance oils away from eyes, skin, and clothing.
• Wash hands thoroughly after handling fragrance oils.

8. Storage:
