Important to follow the proper safety steps to avoid this situation.

Safety tip: Candle Safety Don't walk away leaving a candle burning unattended. Make sure the candle is completely out and the wick ember is no longer glowing before leaving the room. Never burn a candle on or near anything that might catch fire. Keep burning candles away from furniture, drapes, bedding, carpets, books, paper and flammable decorations. Keep your hair and loose clothing away from the flame. Make sure children and pets cannot reach burning candles. Do not place... lit candles where they can be knocked over by children, pets or anyone else. Avoid drafts, vents or air currents. This will help prevent rapid or uneven burning, sooting, and excessive dripping. Never touch or move a candle while it is burning or while the wax is liquefied. Place burning candles at least three inches apart from one another. This is to make sure they don't melt one another, or create their own drafts that will cause the candles to burn improperly. www.fbssi.com See more
