Original glass and metal candle containers can be used as they are, or you can decorate them to suit your taste. For making candles in containers, metal wick holders and a wick centring device will come in handy — they keep the wick nicely taut until the wax sets. You'll find these and more in the Candle-making supplies category. Don't forget to choose a special wax for container candles, which is designed to have better adhesion to the surface so the candle burns evenly. We've written up the basic method for making a container candle in this article, but do also check out our other candle articles on our blog or find inspiration in our Tutorials and inspiration section.
