Wicking Fee

Selecting the correct wick is crucial for candle making as it significantly influences the overall performance and safety of the candle. The wick plays a pivotal role in determining the burn time, wax consumption, and the size of the flame. Using an inappropriate wick may lead to issues such as uneven burning, tunneling, or excessive smoking.

A wick that is too small for the candle size might result in incomplete melting of the wax, causing tunneled holes. On the other hand, an oversized wick can lead to a larger flame, potentially causing safety hazards or rapid wax consumption.

In summary, the correct wick is essential for achieving an even burn, maximizing burn time, and ensuring the safety of the candle. It is a crucial element that should be carefully considered to enhance the overall quality and experience of the candle.

Note: I do not provide wicks for straight paraffin or straight beeswax candles.
