Pillar Candles

Our personalised candles are one of the largest on the market. We have recently made a decision to only offer our customers large personalised candles. This decision was taken not to reduce your choices but to give you the best candle at the best price. During a recent customer survey the feedback that we received was that customers that had purchased smaller candles done so only because of price difference, but their preferences were for the larger candles. So we decided to re-negotiate with our suppliers on the basis of purchasing only large candles in higher quantity. This has allowed us to bring the price of our large candles down and pass that saving onto our customers.

All our personalised candles ore high quality wax pillar candles with an approx size of 20cm/7.5cm with a 25cm circumference. This size candle allows not only for a good size image but also allows for the text to be larger than on most personalised candle. We also only do large wedding favour personalised candles with an approx size of 7cm high for the same reasons. We only use high grade pillar candles so that you can burn your candle for hours without affecting your image or text. This is because pillar candles burn internally leaving the outer core of your candle intact. All of our large pillar candles have an approx burn time of 100hrs.

Candle Safety The Do's And Dont's

•Always put candles on a heat resistant surface. Be especially careful with night lights and tea lights, which get hot enough to melt plastic. TVs are not fire-resistant objects.
•Put them in a proper holder. Candles need to be held firmly upright by the holder so they won't fall over. The holder needs to be stable too, so it won't fall over either.
•Position them away from curtains. Don't put candles near curtains or other fabrics - or furniture. And keep them out of draughts.
•Don't put them under shelves. It's easy to forget that there's a lot of heat above a burning candle. If you put it under a shelf or other surface then it can burn the surface. Make sure there's at least three feet (one metre) between a candle and any surface above it.
•Keep clothes and hair away. If there's any chance you could lean across a candle and forget it's there, put it somewhere else. You don't want to set fire to your clothes or your hair.
•Keep children and pets away. Candles should be out of reach of children and pets.
•Keep candles apart. Leave at least four inches (10cm) between two burning candles.
•Take care with votive or scented candles. These kinds of candles turn to liquid to release their fragrance, so put them in a glass or metal holder.
•Don't move them when they're burning. Extinguish candles before moving them. Also, don't let anything fall into the hot wax like match sticks.
•Don't leave them burning. Extinguish candles before you leave a room. Never go to sleep with a candle still burning. And never leave a burning candle or oil burner in a child's bedroom.
•Use a snuffer or a spoon to put them out. It's safer than blowing them, which can send sparks and hot wax flying.
•Double-check they're out. Candles that have been put out can go on smouldering and start a fire. Make sure they're completely out.
