The wick needle is a great tool for placing candle wicks poured into silicone moulds. Use the needle to pierce the mould in the centre of the base, then pull the wick through the mould from the bottom side so that it extends beyond both sides of the mould. Secure the wick on the bottom side (for example with a small knot) and pull it taut on the top side (you can secure it, for example, with a knot on a skewer placed across the mould). Only trim the wick to its final length once the wax has hardened. The needle itself is 5 cm long, the needle including the handle is 15 cm long, and the eye opening is approx. 5 cm.
