islandgirljen Posted March 21, 2007 Share Posted March 21, 2007 When pouring container candles that have lids. Do you put the lid on the container while you let the wax cure? I wasn't sure if this was a good or bad thing to do.Thanks!Jen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tizimarezie Posted March 21, 2007 Share Posted March 21, 2007 I usually let my candle set over night to completely cool before placing a lid on it. I don't want it covered while it's cooling because it causes funny lumps and pits. But then, yes...I do keep it covered after that. Others may have a different technique.

Stella1952 Posted March 21, 2007 Share Posted March 21, 2007 Same here. No lid until 24 hours after pour. Until then, the candles stay covered with a big box for even, slow, draft-free cooling. Then on with the lids and into the box with the others to be stored. After 4-7 days, I start testing for throw, wicking, etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hillary Posted March 21, 2007 Share Posted March 21, 2007 I also wait for mine to cool completely. Lid goes on right after. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
