  1. I am currently making some jar candles and aside from the testing of many different wicks as some of you suggested I have run into some interesting problems that I was hoping I could get some advice on. I am making a small 5oz bean pot with lavender scent, I was using a C70 and it was going great unitl the bottom quarter of the jar where all the wax liquified and the wick fell over into the liquid wax. Is that normal? I am now trying to wick down one but my wax gets very liquid, it is the IGI wax. As well I find that when I look at the candle from the top it almost looks like brains in the jar there are alot of veins and I was also wondering if that was normal. I'd appreciate any advice you guys might offer. Thanks
  2. Hi, I am new here, I have been making cnadles for a few months and have now started trying to make some jars. i am trying to make a 15 ounce honey pot jar and I am using a C85 wick. I am finding that it is leaving alot of wax on the side of the jar and not burning down evenly or smoothly. Does anyone know what is a better wick to try for this type of jar the width is about 4 inches. Thanks
