When this repeat customer contacted us in 11-2006 she had been burning one of our hand carved Birthday Countdown Candles for more than 5 years, so we sent her a list of questions about the candle’s performance. Below is her reply:<\/p>\n
Q: I’d like to know if the candle performs well?
\nA: The candle is perfect and does not drip!<\/p>\n
Q: Do you burn it each year?
\nA: Yes, during my son’s birthday dinner, and again during his party.<\/p>\n
Q: Can you estimate how long it burns between the imprinted numbers?
\nA: I think it’s about 4 hours.<\/p>\n
Q: Do you find it requires much trimming to keep the top..well, more-or-less “flat”…trimming the top when the wax is still warm (after burning the candle) is the best time to trim the top.<\/p>\n
A: The candle burns very evenly and does not require much trimming at all – just a bit off the top to even it out.<\/p>\n
Q: Has the color faded any from ultra-violet rays? (what color is the 5 year old candle?)<\/p>\n
A: My son’s candle is blue and white and we haven’t noticed any fading. It is still in pristine shape. I store it in my bedroom closet in the original packaging it was shipped in, so it’s well-protected.<\/p>\n
“Feel free to use any of this information as a testimonial. As I said above, the candle is of high quality, burns slowly and evenly, and is beautifully hand-carved. My son gets so excited about his special candle in the weeks leading up to his birthday, and family and friends agree it is a special family tradition. My daughter just turned 1 and I would love for her to have a matching candle since your work is so unique. I\u2019ll order the other countdown candle after Christmas, and hope that we\u2019ll order a personalized candle from you at a later date. Take care, and good wished to you and your family.”
