Problem,everything want great until,it started to burn it burn right down the middle I have a candle with a hole thru it. What happen,what do I need to do help….
I have made crayon candles but they just won’t burn. I light the wick but the flame won’t continue to melt the crayon wax. What am I doing wrong? The wicks & soy wax are the same as I use for all my diy candles without this problem.
Are you using Crayola crayons? They might not work. Try some other brand and follow the instructions in the tutorials.
I made crayon candles in a crunch, i used bamboo skewers but i didnt have the wick holders so i. Had to improvise I thought thumb tacks. While the skewers are wet and soft I twisted the tack in it took a few tries so dont trim the wicks until your base works I used a silicon washer to stabilize the wick to avoid splitting the wood. When it dried i slid the washer off. It was a little unbalanced until the glue set but. i had skewers crayons and tacks and scent. And now Everyone has candles.
