First of all you would want to trim the wick to round about 1/8 of an inch. Before lighting make sure the candle pillar is stood on a plate or something to catch any melted wax. A candle pillar is designed not to run down the sides of the candle but occasionally it does happen.
Yes, a candle holder can affect the burn rate of a candle. A holder that fits the candle properly, shields it from drafts, and allows for proper airflow can help the candle burn more evenly and slowly. On the other hand, an improperly sized or ventilated holder may cause the candle to burn faster or unevenly.
No, a candle cannot burn upside down. The wick needs to be positioned at the top to draw up the melted wax and fuel the flame. Burning a candle upside down would prevent the wick from functioning properly.
The length of time that a candle burns isn't dependent on the manufacturer of the candle, but on the diameter of the candle and the density of the wax. For example, a taper candle (tall and skinny) will burn more quickly than a pillar candle (more an an inch or two in diameter). A solid wax candle, being more dense, will burn more slowly than a honeycomb candle which is a little bit of wax with lots of air cells in it.
no, actually it depends on the wick of the candle. the color has nothing to do with it. A candle with a straight wick burns better and longer than a candle with a crooked wick. Also the wax has a lot to do with it. Wax is the most important ingredient that makes a candle burn faster. soft wax has a higher oil content and lower melt temperature; therefore, it burns faster. Candles in jars have a soft wax, and pillar candles have a hard wax. the longest burning candles are pillar candles made of a blend of beeswax and paraffin. To sum it up: color makes no difference at how fast a candle burns. black candles burn no faster than white candles. Wick size is the primary factor determining the candle burning rate. the bigger wick will deliver more fuel to the burning flame.

A candle wick is typically made from braided cotton fibers that are specially designed to absorb and draw up the liquid wax to be burned. The wick is inserted into the candle during the manufacturing process and is an essential component for the candle to burn properly.

The color of a candle does not affect its burn time. The burn time of a candle is determined by its size, wax type, and wick quality.
No, the candle will not burn because the flame will consume the oxygen inside the bell jar, creating a vacuum and extinguishing the flame. Oxygen is necessary for combustion to occur, and without it, the candle cannot burn.
No, putting a candle in a fridge will not help it burn. In fact, the cold temperature of the fridge can affect the candle's ability to burn properly by slowing down the melting of the wax and potentially causing the wick to extinguish. It is best to keep candles at room temperature for optimal burning.
NO, it will not ruin it!! It does not hurt the candle!! Only if you use water to blow out the candle over and over again! The water acks like wax once it hits the wax!!
It depends on what kind of wax that the candle is made out of
