diy recall signThe U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission and The Wick & Petal Co. have announced a voluntary recall of about 1,300 jar candles, due to the fact the candles can burn with a high flame, posing a fire hazard. Although no injuries have been reported, Wick & Petal has received 7 reports of candles burning with a high flame, some which resulted in minor property damage.

Manufactured in the United States and sold at select candle retailers and craft fairs in Indiana from October 2007 through December 2007 for between $8 and $18, this recall includes all Wick & Petal jar candles. Please check the CPSC press release for details on the recalled candle.

Stop using the candle immediately and return to the retail site for a full refund. You may also contact Wick & Petal at (317) 441-8008 between 8 a.m. and 5 p.m. ET Monday through Friday or visit their website at www.wickandpetal.com. Wick & Petal will accept collect calls to their main number.
