Crate and Barrel candle recall

If you were somehow enticed by a set of plant-shaped candles sold at Crate and Barrel stores, resist the temptation to light it.

It turns out the candle that looks like a plant has wax that melts too quickly and can overflow the pot it's "planted" in and then catch fire, the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission said. Health Canada also issued a recall for the candle.

Crate and Barrel told the CPSC that it had received a report of the wax catching fire.
