Candle making is a fun and creative hobby, it can also become a business. Picking the right jars for your candles is a critical part of the process — one that has an effect on how good they look and how well they burn. At Fenn, we have a selection of candle making jars to meet a range of requirements and preferences. Read below to understand the perfect size and shape of jars for your candles and tips on how to avoid some common problems when making a candle.
There are a few things to consider when you’re trying to choose the perfect jars for your candles. How large your jar is will also determine how long you want the candle to burn and how much wax you’re going to use. If you want a longer burn time, consider using a larger jar. The jar can also impact the manner in which the candle burns and provides fragrance coverage. For instance, a broader jar could promote a more consistent burn and a taller jar may produce an intense scent throw. You may want to try several shapes and sizes until you find the combination that works best for your candles. “Fenn offers a selection of jars available in different sizes and shapes so you can find one to fit the aesthetic and burn time that suits your candle best.
Frosting can be a common problem of using jars to make candles. Frosting is the white, powdery layer on the surface of a candle—the result of the wax cooling down quickly. To avoid frosting, you may want to warm up your jars a little before pouring the wax, or use a heat gun afterwards to even out any flaws once the candle has set. Another thing to look for is wet spots, which are places where the wax has contracted from the glass to form an uneven looking candle. To prevent wet spots, make sure you’re pouring the wax at the right temperature and you’re not touching the jars while the wax sets. These are the type of concerns that you need to be aware off and protect yourself by against when making candles with Fenn jars for candle-making.
