How to Make Wooden Wick Candles: A Beginner’s Guide

Candle making is more than wax and wicks ~ it’s memory, storytelling, and craft. For beginners, learning how to make wooden wick candles can feel overwhelming. What wax should you use? How much fragrance oil? Which wick size is right?

That’s why I created Beyond the Flame, Vol. I ~ a 23-page digital guide to wooden wick candle making for beginners. It’s the resource I wish I had when I started: clear, detailed, and built for makers who believe what you burn matters™.

Why Choose Wooden Wick Candles?

Wooden wicks elevate your candles into a luxury experience:

• They burn slower and cleaner than cotton wicks.
• They create a calming crackling sound.
• They deliver a stronger, quicker hot throw, so fragrance fills the room beautifully.

For anyone serious about candle making, wooden wicks are the perfect place to begin.

The Struggle Beginners Face

Most candle makers start by guessing — and waste time, wax, and money:

• How much wax do I need for my jars?
• How much fragrance oil is too much?
• Why doesn’t my candle burn evenly?

Scattered tutorials and random YouTube tips can’t always answer those questions. That’s why I created a guide that removes the guesswork.
