sidlesup Posted September 8, 2014 Share Posted September 8, 2014 I have two 24 oz kosher pickle jars I'm thinking about making into candles (for home use obviously.) I have Joy wax or GB464, and several types of larger size wicks. My concern is that the jar is a bit too tall. Will enough oxygen circulate so that the wick doesn't drown out? Thanks!

lmc Posted September 8, 2014 Share Posted September 8, 2014 I use the 20oz Claussen pickle jars all the time and love them...I can single or double wick them without a problem. I tried the 24oz before and prefer the shorter 20oz jars...just my personal preference. hth 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Candybee Posted September 8, 2014 Share Posted September 8, 2014 I've got the 24oz Mt. Olive pickle jar. Its about 4-5" diameter and has a nice big opening for good scent throw. I think wicking would be a bit tricky but you should be able to figure it out. I think it would make a lovely candle. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
