DaisyFairy Posted December 7, 2005 Share Posted December 7, 2005 I am fixing to order wick pins and start using them in my votives. I was wondering how hard these are to remove? Do you need to use a releasant on them to get them to release? thanksDaisyFairy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DaisyFairy Posted December 7, 2005 Author Share Posted December 7, 2005 thanks! that helped a lot! I tried doing a search before I posted, but I am not good at the wording I guess... haha.. didn't find that one. I will just have to experiment and see which method works for me when they get here.. but that is a good starting point. thanks againDaisyFairy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scented Posted December 7, 2005 Share Posted December 7, 2005 And if none of those suggestions work, try sucking it out Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Asher Posted December 7, 2005 Share Posted December 7, 2005 I put a dish towel on my counter as a bit of cushioning and then lightly bang the top of the wick pin on it. That should knock the candle loose from the mold without doing damage to either the counter or the wick pin (or the candle). You only need to loosen the pin, and then you can grab the base and slowly guide it out.You will need to take care not to break off part of the votive lip. I have done this a few times Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
