- Place candles in the refrigerator before burning. They will burn evenly and the wax will not drip. Besides, they will burn slower, hence lengthen their burning time.

- Do not freeze candles, Some candles may crack.

- Do not directly expose candles to sunlight. The colour on candles may fade away. If left for too long, the candles will bend.

- If the candle is burned right down and the wax is stuck in the candle holder, just place the holder in the freezer for a few hours, the wax should be easier to dig out.

Chopping onions makes people cry. There are several tips to prevent onion tears:

- Peel onions under cold water or under a steady stream of water. Then heat the onions before chopping or refrigerate before chopping

- Keep the root on while peeling and chopping, where onion is cut from the top leaving the root end intact until the last cut

- Switch off the lights when not using, even it os only for a short while.

- Use fluorescent or energy saving lamps where possible.

- Use a single high-wattage lamp rather than several low-watage ones.
