CANDLE WICK TRIMMER

A candle wick trimmer is a handy tool designed specifically for trimming the wicks of candles. It typically consists of a pair of scissors-like blades attached to a long handle, often with a curved design for ease of use.

Using a candle wick trimmer is important for several reasons:

  • Safety: Trimming the wick to the recommended length (usually about 1/4 inch) helps prevent excessive flame height, reducing the risk of the candle creating soot or smoke.
  • Even Burning: Properly trimmed wicks promote an even and steady burn of the candle, which ensures that the wax melts evenly and the candle lasts longer.
  • Reduced Smoking: Trimming the wick minimizes the production of black smoke and residue, contributing to a cleaner and more enjoyable candle-burning experience.
  • Prevention of Wick Curling: Keeping the wick at the right length helps prevent it from curling into the wax pool, which can extinguish the flame prematurely.

To use a candle wick trimmer, place the scissors-like blades over the wick, allowing them to snip off the excess wick cleanly. It's a simple yet essential tool for maintaining the quality and safety of your candles.

Note: After each burn and once the candle has solidified, remember to flip it upside down to remove leftover coal after trimming the wick. This helps to avoid discoloration when you burn it again.
