what wick to use?

[rebeccajo99]

My mom gave me a jar that she would like me to refill. I personally don't like doing that, but its my mom. I told her that I don't have time to test it because i'm trying to get a new line together for a show next month. She said to take my best guess and she will test it for me... so I'm coming to you. I have done a search, but do not see one posted before (unless I missed it) I have not worked with this jar before. It is 16 oz and just under 4 inches wide. I use ecosoya 135 as my wax. My mom said it had only 1 wick before. I have cotton core wicks, lx and rrd. I don't really want to buy new wicks just for this jar. any suggestions on where to even start? I also use 16 oz of wax and 1 oz of fo. She hasn't picked out a scent yet, but it will probably be cranberry citrus (knowing her) so a dark burgandy color.

Thanks for your time and please let me know if you need additional information.

Here is a wicking chart I love...it will help you out on a daily basis! It has all the series of wicks...you do know that you go by the diameter of the jar at it's widest point..right? I am just making sure you do so you can read the chart. HTH!:smiley2:

Thanks for the chart, that does seem very helpful to give me a starting point for my mom.

Yes, I do go by the widest part of the jar. :smiley2:
