The thickness of the wick mostly determines the burn rate. The rate, as used above, is the speed with which the candle wax is consumed, not the rate that the candle burns downward.

What burns faster a scented candle or unscented candle?

Yes, you can use flower vases as holders for XXL scented candles, but with some precautions. Choose a vase made of heat-resistant materials like thick glass or ceramic, and ensure it has a wide, stable base to prevent tipping. The opening should be wide enough to allow airflow and safe burning. Avoid thin or decorative vases that may crack from heat. Always place the vase on a heat-safe surface and never leave the candle unattended. Repurposing vases can add a stylish, personalized touch to your candle decor while keeping it functional and safe.

What do you use to cut a candle in half?

To cut a candle in half, you can use a sharp knife or a sturdy utility knife. It's best to warm the candle slightly to soften the wax, which makes cutting easier. Alternatively, you can also use a saw designed for cutting soft materials if the candle is particularly thick. Always take care to cut slowly and steadily for a clean cut.
