Burning your BIG BH:
+ On your first use, burn your candle for 3-4 hours to allow the wax to melt evenly to the edge of the jar.

+ Trim wicks to 1/4 inch
How to burn the backhouse:
+ Burn candle within sight and on a flat surface.
+ Keep away from pets, little ones & combustibles.

+ Before relighting, trim wick 1/4" and remove loose pieces to optimize your burn time and keep your candle looking pretty!
+ Stop burning when only 1/4” of wax remains - then reuse your glass jar!

Customer Reviews
I’ve ordered Backhouse mini candles for our employees and everyone absolutely loved them - even the guys! I had individuals asking if I had anymore and where they could order them. I recently ordered some for a client event we hosted and it added such a special touch. The recipients felt so appreciated receiving such a nice little gift, and you’re still able to remind them of your brand or business in a subtle way. Danielle, the owner of Backhouse, is so responsive and easy to work with! It’s a no brainer to look to backhouse when I need to order corporate gifts.
The perfect personalized gift for my clients. Each one has loved receiving the little candle!
I’ll definitely order more.
