Gbhunter Posted February 17, 2012 Share Posted February 17, 2012 I see new wicks they are in the shape of a criss cross of wood. Anyone know where to buy these things? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
snowman Posted February 22, 2012 Share Posted February 22, 2012 GBH - It would appear no one knows or someone knows and just is not going to answer. I have seen these wicks and would also like to find a source. However, I now can't find the candle maker that was using these cross candles. If you have or remember the candle maker's name, please share. Should I find the source, I will let you know... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kcdelong Posted February 22, 2012 Share Posted February 22, 2012 I have never seen a criss cross wood wick..I've seen wood wicks but not in a criss cross shape! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jonsie Posted February 22, 2012 Share Posted February 22, 2012 Woodwick by Virginia Candle Company is offering candles made with the cross-shaped wick (more like a + shape). They will also start offering something called a Ribbon-wick soon. I haven't burned either one of these so I have no idea if it is an improvement on the original, flat wooden wick.I don't know if these new-shaped wicks are available for crafters yet. I'm sure whenever they are available, they won't be sold by Virginia Candle company, but by someone like Unity trying to reverse-engineer what Virginia is offering.

snowman Posted February 22, 2012 Share Posted February 22, 2012 I like to figure out how things are made, or how something works. I think I have the ribbon wick process identified, just have to purchase some wick material and test it. Still trying to find where I saw the + wood wicks...

ksranch Posted February 24, 2012 Share Posted February 24, 2012 Those are pretty - but it sure seems like it would be an awful hot flame - may have to check one out, my curiousity is sure up! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
