how to put candle in candle holder

To put a candle in a candle holder, follow these steps:

1. Choose the Right Candle: Ensure the candle fits snugly in the holder. If it's too big or too small, it may not stay secure.

2. Clean the Holder: Make sure the candle holder is clean and dry to prevent any wax buildup or slipping.

3. Prepare the Base: If your candle is a pillar or a taper, you may want to use a small amount of melted wax at the bottom to secure it. For taper candles, just ensure the holder's opening fits the candle well.

4. Insert the Candle: Carefully push the candle into the holder. If it’s a taper candle, insert it straight down. For pillar candles, place it gently and allow it to settle into the base.

5. Secure the Candle: If you used wax, allow it to cool and harden to keep the candle in place. For taper candles, ensure it's standing straight and stable.

6. Light Safely: Once the candle is secure, you can light it. Make sure the holder is on a stable surface and away from flammable items.

Always supervise lit candles and follow safety precautions!
