Candles are beautiful, fragrant and relaxing. A candle is a possible fire hazard if it's not properly monitored. A candle is an open flame that can increase the risk of a fire.

The following three basic rules to avoid a candle fire came directly from a study done by the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission.

Number one rule: Never leave a burning candle unattended. It may seem like a good idea to leave your candle burning so your house could soak up the fragrance, but it's a really bad idea considering there is no one to watch it in case of an emergency situation.

Number two rule: Never burn a candle on or near anything that may catch on fire.

Number three rule: Keep candles out of the reach of both children and pets.
