Which Woodwick candle is right for you?

When choosing the right candle, pay attention mainly to size, burn time, and where you want to use it. A smaller model is handy for a side table, bathroom, or as an extra fragrance accent in a smaller room. A larger jar is especially lovely in the living room or dining room, where you want to enjoy the scent and flame for longer.

Size guide

• Small: suitable for compact spaces or to try a new fragrance.
• Medium: a good middle ground for everyday use.
• Large: ideal if you want lots of burn hours and a candle that stands out.
• Ellipse shape: gives a broader flame and an extra eye-catching crackling effect.

What should you consider when choosing?

• Choose a smaller size for a bedside table, wall shelf, or bathroom cabinet.
• Choose a larger candle for living rooms and open spaces.
• If you want the full experience, a model with a wide wooden wick is a great choice.
• Looking for a gift? The glass jar with wooden lid gives it an instantly polished look.

Burn time and use

The burn time of Woodwick candles varies by size and is approximately between 20 and 130 hours. How long a candle really lasts also depends on how you use it. Ideally, let the candle burn for at least an hour so the top layer of wax can melt properly. For a beautiful, even burn, 3 to 4 hours is often ideal.

How to get the best burn

• At the first burn, let the wax melt as far as possible to the edge.
• Place the candle on a flat, heat-resistant surface.
• After it has cooled, carefully break off any loose pieces of the wooden wick if it gets too long.
• Only put the lid back on once the candle has fully cooled.

Styling tips for your home

Woodwick candles look their best in places where calm and attention come together. Place a jar on a stack of books, on a wooden tray, or next to ceramics for a warm and beautifully styled corner. Want to add more height and variation? Then combine the candle with lanterns, mood lights, or a few calm candle holders. That way, you can easily create a look that balances light and fragrance beautifully.

Practical after use

Has your candle burned out? Then you can often reuse the glass jar very well. Remove the last bit of wax, place the jar in warm water if needed, and then clean the glass with paper towel and a little dish soap. After that, you can use the jar for small accessories, cotton buds, or other little items.

Frequently asked questions about Woodwick candles

How long should I let a Woodwick candle burn?

Let the candle burn for at least 1 hour. For good fragrance diffusion and a neat wax layer, 3 to 4 hours is often best.

Why does a Woodwick candle have a wooden wick?

The wooden wick creates the familiar crackling sound and adds to the special experience of these scented candles.

Which Woodwick candle size is suitable for my space?

For small spaces, a small or medium size is often enough. In a larger living room or open space, a large jar or ellipse shape usually works better.

How do I prevent tunnelling in my candle?

Let the top layer of wax melt enough with every burn. That helps prevent the candle from burning down only in the middle.

Can I keep the empty glass jar?

Yes, definitely. If you clean the glass well, you can reuse it as a small storage jar or decorative item among other candles and home accessories.
