* Please note that the Braided Wick and the Metal Tabs are sold separately.
* Each order of wicks includes 1 roll/spool of about 200 ft woven candle wicks.
* Each order of wick tabs contains about 190-200 pieces of metal tabs. It’s important to get the candle wick size right, as otherwise your candle will not burn in the way you expect.
* If you over wick, your candle can burn through the wax like butter and before you know it your candle will be gone.
* On the other hand, under wicking has the opposite effect, and can result in the candle wax not being fully vaporized. We don't want this. We want to extend the life of the candle to an acceptable length, whilst still using up all the wax. But what size wick do you actually need for your candle?
How to choose the right sized candle wick?
This really depends on a couple of variables, namely the type of wax you are planning to use and the size of your intended candle.
To get the right size candle wick, you should:
1. Measure the diameter of your jar, container or mold.
2. Then, compare this measurement to the below guide.

this wick does not work well with my 3" diameter pillars, it does fine for my taper candles but it works great for my 2" diameters! :)

You can burn wax & oil, but it's always helpful to have a few yards of the "Wick". Storms all over the country & many of our cities have old Power Stations. The time is no longer if we are going to have Major Power Outages? It's when & how soon??

I recently tried Qpuppy’s 100 ft Braided Candle Wicks and I couldn’t be more impressed! Made from 100% cotton with a 45-PLY design, these wicks deliver exceptional performance for my candle-making projects. Each wick burns evenly and produces a beautiful, steady flame without any soot or smoking, which is a huge plus for indoor use.The length is perfect for crafting various sizes of pillar candles, allowing me to cut them down as needed without worrying about quality. I appreciate the braided texture, which not only enhances burn quality but also offers a bit of a rustic aesthetic to the finished candles.Additionally, the packaging is well-thought-out—easy to store and keeps the wicks tangle-free. For anyone looking to elevate their candle-making game, Qpuppy’s braided candle wicks are a fantastic choice. I highly recommend them for both beginners and experienced crafters!

This is the first time buying this type of product and it works very well. The wick relight quickly and don't get lost in the wax like most of them.
