    Took me a while, didn't have borax at hand so I had to buy some on my last shopping trip, then one has to wait for the wicks to soak, etc. but...... the wax coated ones worked best for me. I forgot to buy Popsicle sticks, but will get some next shopping trip. Thanks again.

    From the various utube links about DIY candle wicks, I have never come across someone talking about wick sizes (diameter). Neither commercial wick suppliers since all charts show the demeter of the vessels / containers recommending wicks accordingly. If someone in the know could provide information about the various thicknesses of the braided cotton wicks, one would go about it in a better manner to accommodate according to vessels in use.

    Why do you need the salt for, would borax alone not work 🤔

    I thought candle wicks are regular cotton rope. Why do they need this treatment? Regular 100% cotton rope seems to work grate in oil candles

      Wax candles are not oil candles, but you could try to do the same for oil candles.

    Cotton String, 1 cup water, 2 Tablespoons 20 Mule Team BORAX, and 1 Tablespoon SALT. That is the official recipe. Actually never measure out ingredients according to that method. I use about 4 cups of water, and 1 Cup of Borax and 1/2 Cup of Salt if you want to know something measured. Actually I use Several cups of Water and about a handful of BORAX and a handful of salt
