Candle Safety The use of wax or paraffin candles for home decoration
is commonly known across the world. It adds an exciting touch to most rooms of any house,
like the bathroom or even the study and are available in many attractive styles, colors, and designs.
These candles also add beauty, fragrance, and comfort to your home and
office. Like most things in life, candles can bring along some unwanted baggage when we buy them for home use. Here are a few
candle safety tips to keep in mind when lighting up a candle or two
for that special occasion:
Firstly - try to buy candles without lead wicks. Many commercial candles are made with a lead wire wick that burns when the candle is lit.
Many of use are unaware that the smoke from combustible lead can be toxic, especially if
one is frequently exposed to it. Therefore look for candles that have thread
wicks that are non-toxic for burning.
