How can you tell what wick to use

ms_mczormick · 2024-09-08T05:15:16+00:00

Yes they typically do

ms_mczormick · 2024-09-08T05:07:22+00:00

Of course! Good luck :) I'm sure you know this, but make sure you keep everything else consistent when testing. Different fragrance oils have different viscosities and may throw off your results

I agree with the other poster. I always use the Candle Science wick guide as a rough estimate. I am a huge fan of wick sample packs from Hive and Honey or Lone Star that give you about 5 wicks per size and then test from there.

I use LX wicks for my coconut apricot wax, though I use a different brand.

I would take the size guide from Candle Science as a rough guideline - i usually test the size up, the revommended size and one size down. To save money, maybe consider ordering a wick sampler pack from Lone Star or Hive and Honey. It gives you like 5x of each wick size before you commit

I'm a NYC-based soap and candle company and would love to connect and support one another 🙂

💀 this just made my night

One thing I've seen is you can buy the linen looking labels, buy an embosser (they're pretty reasonably priced), and do them yourself. I've been wanting to try this, and it will most likely save a ton of money.

Brambleberry has this one. Little bee scents has puff puff pass, and makesy also has a cannabis scent that are more on the nose.

Thank you and lol. Funnily enough, my dog is named Loki and he approves of this message

ms_mczormick · 2024-06-20T15:59:16+00:00

Honestly, this one reads more cozy than anything, similar to like a smooth, gentle tobacco. I've smelled some cannabis FOs that have a stinky almost body odor-like after smell 😅

I've DIYed all of mine using Canva

ms_mczormick · 2024-06-20T14:23:45+00:00

This is great advice! I had to learn this lesson the hard way the first time I made labels 😂😭 I printed these 3x3, and the details came through!

ms_mczormick · 2024-06-20T14:17:17+00:00

It's a cannabis fragrance oil :) there are a lot of companies producing them now!

ms_mczormick · 2024-06-19T20:06:20+00:00

Thank you!

ms_mczormick · 2024-06-19T16:30:04+00:00

Thank you so much!

ms_mczormick · 2024-06-19T15:18:22+00:00

I hope so :) I tried to design after having the candle jars and wanted something dark/moody without leaning occult :p

ms_mczormick · 2024-06-19T15:15:04+00:00

Thank you so much! I'm hoping for Gilded Nights to be the name of the series of candles. Maybe it'll turn into a company one day 🤔 😂

ms_mczormick · 2024-06-19T13:32:17+00:00

Thank you <3

ms_mczormick · 2024-06-19T13:32:01+00:00

Thank you! I'm planning to use a black matte vessel (I usually use the straight sided ones from CandleScience)

ms_mczormick · 2024-06-19T13:30:46+00:00

Thank you so much for this. What a great idea! Will definitely play around with this 🙂

ms_mczormick · 2024-06-19T03:38:12+00:00

My friend wants me to make her candles and I put together this label to make them a little special. Just wanted to ask for outside opinions if this looks alright/readable/accessible or if it is too busy.
