What wax are you using? I use 4625 for my pillars and sometimes it will shrink half way down the length of the candle before my 2nd pour and I end up having to do up to 5 repours, unfortunately.

I also use those for my smaller pillars and novelty candles. But I checked Hobby Lobby and Michael's today, but couldn't find any cello bags large enough. I might have to use some sort of box, but wanted something you can see through as my canes are photo embedded.

How do you guys package your Hurricanes? I usually use gusseted cello bags for my pillars, but I'm having a hard time finding them large enough for my canes. I'm not shipping them; just need a pretty packaging to sell locally. Any advice?

That's a great idea- thank you!!!!

I love coffee bean candles, but I learned the hard way that the beans are very flammable, lol. I've seen some pillars in stores that have the beans only on the outside bottom half. But for the life of me, I can't figure out how to get them to adhere. I've tried heavy duty double sided tape and even Mod Podge and they won't stick for anything. Any suggestions???

Wicks for floating candles?
SpunkyMoo replied to SpunkyMoo's topic in General Candle Making Discussions
Oh, thank you so much! This will certainly help!! -
Hi, I am very new to the candle business and I couldn't find an answer under search. I love making Floating candles, but not sure what wick to use. I have been using a hot needle to pierce a hole into the cured candle and inserting a zinc core wick that I cut to the proper length. But as the wax melts, the wicks falls to its side because the hole that I inserted it in. I'm probably doing this very wrong, lol, so ANY advice would be VERY appreciated! Thanks!!
