Cool video tks! I work from home 90% of time and enjoy a fairly dark office. I burn a candle everyday all day while I'm working. I have a lot of left over wax from all the burnt out scented candles that I didn't through away... I want to melt the left over wax and make a new candle or 2 but don't have any proper wicks. Any suggestions of something else I could potentially use as a wick? Doesn't have to be perfect... just want to try making a candle or 2 before buying a kit. Tks.

Very helpful! I was wondering if since 2022 do you still use the same wax warmer and when the wax gets low can you use the spout? Or how do you get the most wax out of it at the end? Excellent video. Many thanks.

I personally had to dump it out at the very end. The only times I needed to empty it completely was when I was testing waxes or changing waxes though so it didn’t end up being a big problem later on. 😊

I don’t, but that’s an interesting idea 💡

Thank you. But how do you know which wick sizes to use? I went to candlescience and for my jar which is the same one you have but an 8oz, it suggested one wick, LX20. But the width of the jar is a little over three inches. thank you.

@reneejurgensen7280 Жыл бұрын

Could you pour a bit more wax on top to fill in the holes?

@carmenaviles779 6 ай бұрын

I have a 4 oz tins but when I calculate the wax and divide it with the 110% fragance, when I pour it its over the fill line anyway. What can I do to measure it only to the fill line? I do not want to waste wax. Hope you understand my question . Thank you.

Also what wick series is this? because you used two wicks for an 8 oz jar, I plan to use a 8 oz straight sided libbey jar. :) Do you suggest two wicks?

At what point do you use the heat gun and poke the candle like that? At how many days is that?

@EclipseBotanica 6 ай бұрын

I do it as soon as the candle has hardened, so the same day, sometimes the next day 🥰

@EclipseBotanica 2 жыл бұрын

Really? Just push it out with your fingers?

@IrishQ76 2 жыл бұрын

@@EclipseBotanica Sometimes that works but most times it takes pushing it out with the handle of small pliers like ones you used in the your video. I like to fix them if I can to keep cost low.
