  • Push your wick into the wick clip
  • Place a wick sticker or glue dot onto the bottom of the wick clip
  • Secure the wick clip to the bottom center of your vessel
  • Ta-dah! Done!

That’s all there is to it. You are now ready to pour your candle. That’s right! No securing to a wick bar, wooden dowel, pencil, clothespin, or re-straightening the wick as the candle is cooling.
