How To Use Products
Welcome to your guide for getting the most out of your Roosevelts favorites—from candles to diffusers and everything in between. Explore how each product works, what makes it special, and how to keep the scent going strong.
Candles
How to Use:
Trim the wick to ¼" before every burn to avoid soot and ensure an even flame.
Burn until the full surface is melted—especially the first time. This sets the "memory" and prevents tunneling.
Keep candles away from drafts, pets, and anything flammable.
Tips & Tricks:
Burn for 2–4 hours at a time.
Use a snuffer to extinguish without smoke.
Reuse the jar: they make great planters, pencil holders, or mini catch-alls.
Cocktail Glass Candles
How to Use:
Same ritual as our standard candles—but in barware you’ll want to keep.
Tips & Tricks:
Once your candle is finished, freeze the glass to pop out leftover wax, then wash with warm soapy water.
Repurpose it as a cocktail glass—yes, they’re made for that.
Perfect for gifting or hosting. Pair with a bottle of something and a handwritten recipe card.
Reed Diffusers
How to Use:
Place reeds in the glass bottle and allow 24–48 hours for scent to disperse.
Flip reeds weekly (or as needed) for a fresh burst of fragrance.
Place on a coaster or tray to protect surfaces.
Tips & Tricks:
Use fewer reeds for a subtler scent, more for stronger fragrance.
Keep out of direct sunlight and away from HVAC vents to prolong use.
Great for entryways, guest rooms, or anywhere flames aren’t welcome.
Stone Diffusers
How to Use:
Place your diffuser on a stable surface.
Add 5–10 drops of essential oil to the top.
Reapply as needed to refresh the scent.
Tips & Tricks:
Best in smaller rooms like bathrooms, offices, or bedside tables.
Want a layered scent experience? Use the same fragrance across your candle, stone, and oil.
Avoid moving after oil is added—it may stain.
Essential Oils
How to Use:
Add 5–10 drops to your stone diffuser or water-based diffuser.
Not for use on skin—these are pure fragrance blends.
Tips & Tricks:
Keep capped when not in use to protect potency.
Mix and match oils with candles to enhance or complement your atmosphere.
Store in a cool, dry place away from sunlight.
