  5. had to use 2-3 wicks on a container. i have some cute christmas containers that i got at the dollar tree. i am having trouble wicking them. i cant find my bigger wicks. i have used j50, mistletoe fo and 3 lx16 wicks. it seems fine. but i have never scene a candle in a container that is 3.5 inches wide with 3 wicks. it has been burning for about an hour with no problems. i was going to give these as christmas presents. what do you think. i would hate to give these as presents and burn down someones house. (well, unless it is my outlaws, i mean inlaws.lol) how long should i let it test before i stop. tia
