JamieB Posted June 22, 2006 Share Posted June 22, 2006 Hi everyone,I was wondering if some one could give me a starting point for a 9 oz balmoral jar? I have read some of the wick suggestions that suppliers have on their site but I am not sure what to do with this jar because the middle section of it is large than the top.Any suggestions?ThanksJamie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pamperme Posted June 22, 2006 Share Posted June 22, 2006 Good LUCK!I had a jar similar to a balmoral jar ..and the shape of the jar and the wicks I tried were just a no go. I actually quit trying until I changed my wax to a soy BLEND. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JamieB Posted June 22, 2006 Author Share Posted June 22, 2006 Ok, so is it the jar that you can't wick or the wax? Since you said you switched to a soy blend than I am assuming it was the wax?Sigh I hope not the jar because I just love the look of them..

Accents Posted June 22, 2006 Share Posted June 22, 2006 I'd start with one of the three largest sizes you have and see how it works with your wax and FO. Keep in mind that you may need to burn it a few times before it goes all the way across; it should catch up on subsequent burns. You might want to start out with a simpler jar until you get the hang of it. I tend to get more wet spots in my balmorals than the straighter jars.HTH!

I like the jars as well..but they are pain with plain soy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lorrie Posted June 22, 2006 Share Posted June 22, 2006 Jamie,I am glad to see that you made it here. I do love the look of the balmorals but like I told you that are going to be a PITA to wick. There are lots of beautiful containers out there. Don't pull your hair out trying to wick this one jar.Good Luck! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
