Better Homes And Gardens

I was burning candle on my dresser in my bedroom as I lay in bed. After several minutes I heard a loud pop. The glass of the candle had exploded, send chunks of glass and small shards of glass flying - luckily it exploded in the opposite direction of me. Candle continued to burn. It burnt the top of my dresser. Again, luckily I was right there to extinguish the candle before more damage was done. Unsafe candles. I never saw this happen before with any candle.
