How to Use the Beeswax Skep Votive Candle for Best Results Trim the Candle Wick Before each burn, trim the wick to about 1/4 inch. This helps maintain a steady flame, reduces smoking, and ensures the candle burns more efficiently. Burn Free-Standing Always place the skep votive on a fire-safe plate or saucer. Because of its shape and size, it is not designed for enclosed or tight glass holders, which can trap heat and cause uneven burning. Avoid Drafts For a steady flame and even burn, keep the candle away from open windows, fans, or vents. Drafts can cause the flame to flicker, wasting wax and shortening burn time. Allow a Full Melt Pool During the first burn, let the wax melt across the entire top before extinguishing the candle. This helps prevent tunneling and allows the Skep Votive to burn evenly through its 15–20 hours of use. Sustainable, Pure, and Locally Made Beeswax Skep Votive Candles At Ames Farm, our Be
