Woodwick Candles - Overview

Woodwick Candles

I am now hooked on Virginia Candle Company's WoodWick Candles!  The wick is actually wood and it sounds like crackling fire.  The candle light and warm scents of WoodWick candles can bring a fun romantic mood to any room.  These candles may come with "high-end" price tags, but the quality makes them worth it!  The WoodWick candles have extended burn times unlike cheap candles.  Also, often you can find seasonal candles on sale at places like Cracker Barrel or Ulta.  The candles come in a nice glass jar.  Seasonal candles come in jars that illuminate shapes carved in the glass.  The tops are a nice wood that can double as a coster!  Now, the most important part, the scents...they are great.  The scents permeate the room quickly and smell great even after the flame is distinguished!  Remember to trim the wood wick and allow to cool before relighting to get the best scent after using it each time.

Things You Should Know About Woodwick Candles?

Woodwick Candles

A candle wick is string, cord, or wooden object that holds the flame of a candle. A candle wick works by capillary action, drawing ("wicking") the fuel to the flame. When the liquid fuel, typically melted candle wax, reaches the flame it then vaporizes and combusts. The candle wick influences how the candle burns. Important characteristics of the wick include diameter, stiffness, fire-resistance, and tethering.

Large diameter wicks typically result in a larger flame, a larger pool of melted wax, and the candle burning faster. Candle wicks are normally made out of braided cotton, and may contain a stiff core. This core was traditionally made of lead, however lead wick cores have been banned in the U.S. for several years by the Consumer Product Safety Commission, due to concerns aboutlead poisoning. Zinc is often used as a safer replacement for lead in this application. (The two may be differentiated by the way they write on paper - lead will, zinc won't.) Other core stiffeners, such as paper and synthetic fibers, may also be used.
