Using this Jay Strongwater Meredith Floral Pillar Candle Holder is easy. Simply place your pillar candles in the holder and light them up to create a warm and inviting atmosphere. When using, make sure to place it on a stable and heat - resistant surface to avoid any accidents. Keep it away from flammable materials. For maintenance, gently dust it with a soft cloth regularly to keep the enamel and crystals looking shiny. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners as they may damage the finish and the crystals. If it gets dirty, you can use a mild soap and water solution, but be careful not to soak it for too long. After cleaning, dry it thoroughly with a soft cloth.
