Burning powder incense is a popular way to create a calming and inviting atmosphere in your home. Not only does it smell great, but the process of burning it is surprisingly simple.
Before you begin burning powder incense, make sure that you have an appropriate space to do so. Choose a place that is away from any flammable materials or open flames, such as a stovetop. Also, make sure that you have enough ventilation; open a window or turn on a fan if need be.
To begin, fill a fire-safe bowl with a layer of sand or ash. Place your incense powder on top and spread it out evenly. If you are using a cone-shaped incense, place it on top of the sand or ash so that it stands upright.
Using a match or lighter, light the edge of the incense powder. Once lit, the powder will start to smolder and release its aroma. Try to keep the flame away from the bowl itself to avoid any potential accidents.
Keep an eye on the incense as it burns to ensure that it does not get out of hand. If necessary, blow out the flame if it starts to get too large or smokey.
Once you have finished burning your incense, let it sit for a few minutes before extinguishing it. To do this, simply douse the flame with water or sand and make sure all remnants of the fire are out before discarding them in a trash can.
Burning powder incense can be a great way to make your home smell amazing and create a peaceful atmosphere. Just be sure to follow these steps carefully and monitor the incense while it’s burning to ensure that you stay safe while doing so.
