💜 CANDLE CARE (because happy candles burn better)
Congrats! You’ve just adopted a Meep Meep candle.
It won’t beg for food at 3am, knock things off your shelves, or judge your life choices (probably)… but it does need a little care. Following these tips helps your candle burn cleanly, last longer, and stay cozy and safe in your home.
🐾 Trim the Wick
Before each burn, trim the wick to ¼ inch to keep your candle burning cleanly and evenly.
🐾 First Burn Is Important
On the first burn, allow the wax to melt all the way to the edges (about 3–4 hours). This helps prevent tunneling and ensures an even burn for the life of the candle.
🐾 Burn in Moderation
Limit each burn to no more than 4 hours at a time. This helps reduce soot and extend candle life.
🐾 Safe Placement
Always burn on a flat, heat-safe surface, away from drafts, children, and pets.
🐾 When to Stop Burning
Discontinue use when about ¼ inch of wax remains for safety.
🐾 Putting It Out & Tucking It In
Please use a candle snuffer (not your breath, not the lid) to put out the flame. When not in use, pop the lid back on to keep out dust, cat hair, and the tiny overlords who run the house.
🐾 Hand-Poured Character
Each candle is hand-poured. Minor variations in color or texture, including frosting & wet spots are normal and do not affect performance.
Pet-Friendly Note:
While our candles are thoughtfully formulated for pet-loving homes, no candle can be guaranteed risk-free. Always burn responsibly, ensure good ventilation, and keep candles out of reach of pets. If your pet has known sensitivities, we recommend discontinuing use.
If your cat has a talent for getting into everything, a candle warmer or lamp is a great way to enjoy your candle without ever lighting the wick.
