Candle Wicks Candles Scented Care Burning

Every candle has to have a wick, and wicking material comes in all sorts of thicknesses. Basically, the thicker the wick the bigger the candle that wick can burn cleanly, without making smoke or leaving the edges of the candle unmelted.

You might not be able to find a wide variety of wicks at your local craft store, but there will probably at least be pretrimmed wicks for votive candles (they are often attached to a little piece of metal that helps hold the wick in place so you can just drop it in the mold, straighten it and it will stand up) and one or two sizes of bulk wick packaged as one long string. The package should tell you what size range of candles the wick works for.

What you will find in the crafts store is good for most standard sized candles, and they’ll probably stock wick that works with the molds they sell, so if you buy your molds and wick in the same place you should be OK. Once you have made enough candles to know you enjoy the process and want to keep doing it, you may want to go online and buy some different molds and the wick to match.

When you’re buying wick, also get some wick sealer. This putty like substance is used to keep the wick in place in the mold and to keep the wax from leaking out the hole that the wick is threaded through.
