Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What type of wax works best with these wooden wicks?
A: These wooden candle wicks are compatible with a wide variety of waxes including soy wax, paraffin, beeswax, and coconut wax. Soy wax tends to pair especially well with wooden wicks for a clean, even burn.
Q: How do I prevent my wooden wick from going out?
A: Trim your wooden wick to about 5mm (¼ inch) before each burn. A wick that is too long can cause an uneven flame or the wick to extinguish itself. Also ensure your candle is burning in a draft-free environment for best results.
Q: Are these wooden wicks safe for indoor use?
A: Yes! These wicks are designed for smokeless burning, making them ideal for indoor use. Always follow standard candle safety practices — never leave a burning candle unattended, and keep away from flammable materials and out of reach of children and pets.
Q: Can I use this kit for candles other than container candles?
A: The glue dots and metal bases are best suited for container candles (jar candles, tin candles, etc.). However, the wooden wicks themselves can be adapted for pillar or mold candles with the appropriate wick holders.
