  • Using a tapestry needle (one with a large eye) , thread the pre measures wick through the eye, then finding the centre of the silicone mould, gently piece a hole through, pulling the wick through with it.
  • Secure the wick with a small piece ( ball ) either Prestik, our moulding clay, to stick it into place, and to “seal” it, remember this will be the top of the candle.
  • Thereafter thread the wick through a placeholder at the top of the mould, you might have to remove the placeholder while pouring and place over again after to secure into place.
  • Lay down some newspaper because pouring any type of candles can be messy.

Special Note:

These instructions are based on our in-house testing. You should also explore the handling sheet, and conduct your own testing with fragrance loads, colouring and temperatures (download the complimentary testing sheet). We use the recommended fragrance load per wax you are using in the moulds, using our fragrance range.  We advise using a digital thermometer to measure the correct temperature of the wax.
