Candle Wicking Needle

How to Use the Candle Wicking Needle

1. Prepare the Wick
   First, cut a piece of candle wick to the desired length. Make sure it’s clean and neatly trimmed for easy threading.
2. Hold the Needle
   Grasp the needle with your thumb and index finger, making sure you can clearly see the eye of the needle.
3. Fold the End of the Wick
   Fold about 1/4 inch (0.6 cm) of the wick to create a thicker portion. This will make it easier to grip and maneuver through the needle’s eye.
4. Insert the Wick
   Hold the folded end of the wick with your non-dominant hand. With your dominant hand, gently push the folded end through the needle’s eye. You may need to twist or wiggle the wick to guide it through.
5. Pull Through
   Once the folded end is through, grasp the wick firmly and pull it through until you have the desired length threaded through the needle.
6. Trim Excess
   If necessary, trim any excess wick hanging from the eye using scissors or a sharp knife. Leave just enough to work with.
7. Secure the Wick
   Tie a knot at the end of the wick to keep it from slipping back through the needle’s eye.
