  1. Thank you Grumpy I did have the Libbey tumblers in mind. I personally have had trouble wicking their candle jars...or better yet I've had trouble wicking anything..lol
  2. Just wondering.... Can I use regular kitchen High Ball glasses as candle containers? TY
  3. Last night I double wicked the 16oz Apothocary jar with 2 ECO12's. I am burning right now. My MP is a little over 1/2 inch after 2 hours. No wax left on the sides. I used a 1OZ of WYW scent. No Dye No Additives. Should I try wicking down one? I want to say thank you so much for helping me out last night. I was so frustrated! Soya
  4. I had no idea about double wicking in such a small jar. I am a NEWB...can you tell? LOL...... I double wicked my 16oz apothocary jar last night with 2 ECO12's. I will definately let you girls know what happened. BTW.... I have been burning a container I found at Walmart (mouth opening is 4X3) with 2 ECO14's and it seems to be the only candle that has not been drowning so far. The wicks look big and ugly though. Thank you ladies so much!
  5. I will try double wicking and also try wicking down.....Thank you SOOOOO mUch!
  6. I get a great pool at first. As the candle burns down (1/2 way through) the flame starts getting weaker and weaker and wick starts to drown. The wax seems to overpower the wick. And like I stated earlier the eco14 isn't holding up in a 4 x 5 container. I am soooo stuck here. I've tried no dye no fo...nothing helps. I wonder if I am burn testing too soon. I wait approx 20 hours. Is it imparative that I wait 24 to 48 hours? Any info would be greatly appreciated.
  7. Do you think that may be the problem? I am starting to think that these eco wicks run small....I mean really small! I have run out of sizes for a 4 inch container, even the eco14 (the largest size available) are too small for it. I am stumped!
  8. No dyes and 1 oz of FO per pound. It usually happens half way down the candle. I am getting so frustrated.
  9. I am using cb135A (ecosoya advanced). I keep having problems with drowning wicks. I am using the eco brand wicks. My candles will start burning fine and start drowning after a few hours or on my 2nd burn. What can be causing this? I have tried different jars and I still get the drowning wicks. I would appreciate any help I can get. Thank you
