Flat cotton wicks, waxed and with a small aluminium plate at the ends. Perfect for making homemade candles. The glow of homemade candles creates a wonderful atmosphere. They're perfect for dark winter mornings and warm summer evenings alike - so start making your own candles now. Homemade candles are easier to make than you think. In fact, it's easy to make your own candles, as long as you have the right materials at home. Cotton candle wicks in particular are a good thing to have in stock if you want to make your own candles. We have a wide range of everything you need to make candles. We have everything from candle gels, paraffins, beeswax and stearin to moulds and candle glasses. Pouring candles: first pour a small amount of candle paste into the bottom of the mould and place a small wick disc in the centre of the mould - the candle paste then acts like glue and holds the wick in place. Pour the hot candle wax into the mould and make sure that the wick is vertical. Leave some wick on the outside of the candle paste to make it easier to light the candle.
