Using these candles is easy. Just place them in a standard taper candlestick holder. Light the wick, and enjoy the warm glow for 8 - 9 hours. When you're done, let the candles cool completely before handling. To keep them in good condition, store them in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Avoid touching the wax with dirty hands to prevent stains. And remember, this listing is only for the candles, so you'll need to get your own holders and accessories if you want to use them.
