Using this oil burner is easy. Simply place a standard single tealight in the burner. Then add a few drops of your favorite essential oil to the top part. The heat from the tealight will gently warm the oil and spread a lovely scent around your home. When using it, make sure to place it on a stable, heat - resistant surface to avoid any accidents. Don't leave it unattended while the tealight is lit. To keep it in good condition, clean it regularly with a soft cloth. If there's any wax residue, you can use a bit of warm soapy water to remove it gently.
