Still a newbie but I'm learning!
A friend who bought a few candles from me said that in one of her candles, the wax melts faster than the wick burns, so the flame gets pretty big and stays that way as the candle burns. I haven't noticed that with my test candles, so maybe it's the fragrance oil? Any input? In the candle she told me about, I used Candlewic's CL-129 wax with Peak Candle's Amish Harvest FO and 44-24-18 zinc core wick, in a 4 oz. hex jar (2.5 inch diameter), along with a mixture of Peak's Golden Honey/Vanilla and Brown liquid dye. Thank you! -
all great ideas...I have to say I liked the hammer best, I'm 3 weeks away from getting married and tensions are high, so that really helped!!

hey...i am pretty new to serious candle-making, and I've never worked with slabs of wax before. What's the best way to break them up? Are there any techniques I should learn before trying to make my first batch? Thanks!
