Does the wax not lessen/go down when you are using a candle warmer? I've only ever used/burned a candle through the use of the wick, not with a warmer

It melts and lasts for months. I love my candle warmer and wound up buying a few.just start with a good candle.

I run mine at mid setting 24/7. I feel it helps. But if your burn candles the wax kinda gets sucked into too so I noticed it sounding different.

Did you pour the wax into the little bucket that it comes with? It won't warm up if the wax is in the original can. You have to warm it & dump it in.

Yes. Strange enough, I purchased a candle warmer and it does heat the wax. Keep in mind that it may take up to 45 minutes to completely warm up but it does get the job done.

I'm definitely not a pro candle maker so I don't know the technicalities of the wick but I can tell you that it worked very well for what I did with it: soy candles made in mugs. Seemed to burn very well and very clean and was easy to work with.

The warmer is sized to the same dimensions as the wax can. You drop in the whole can of wax and heat it, can and all. When the can is empty, just drop in a new one. Hope that helps.

Again, in low levels of light, & with the low color temperature light quality of the candle flame, you will get a somewhat grainy & yellow/orange cast to the image. I don't know if there's a Tungsten color temp balance adjustment to correct the yellow cast as I've not had time to go into manual settings yet. I'm sure you can mess with some lighting additions that cast just enough light on the subject & leave the cake to look more candle light.Alan W

Kathleen I bought this spool and it is not waxed, I make candles and have to wax all of my wicks. Sounds like a cool project you are doing, I hope it works.Val

hi Katy - No! Never put wax directly on the heat! It is too volatile, and can catch fire that way. Recommended - either get a double boiler, or use an available adapter to make an existing pot the bottom part. Also recommended - candle-making thermometer to make sure your temps are okay, and a beginning candle-making book.

Depending on size of glass container and heat of bee's wax you can use a hot glue gun to tack down the wick. I'm assuming the candle will remain in glass container when lit. Otherwise you're stuck with metal tab. I don't recommend using any wick with an internal wire stiffener as the metal vapors go into the air. Okay for large open areas; not so good for small rooms. Hope this helps, a craft shop might have more ideas.

I leave my unit on all the time so the wax stays warm and melted. It's been on on for years with no problems.

Yes. But I don't use it. I use the cover for the wax itself and leave it in the warmer.

You have to get a wax tin to put in the warmer. Do not put wax directly into the warmer

Putting the correct amount of wax in the wax holder should prevent dripping. I have had no experience with the wax burning.

No you have to use a special wax, theirs. I just gave mine away as took forever to warm the wax...onto the next brand.

The wax? Not at all. Just be sure to warm it up with your fingers (body heat) before applying. Also, make sure to brush in thoroughly.
