Candle wick centering device and method

摘要

A candle wick centering method and device for maintaining the vertically centered position of a wick that is disposed within the cavity of a candle container throughout the wax pouring and solidifying process includes a centering device having an annular flange that rests upon the rim of the candle container and a support member that extends across and bisects the centering device creating a pair of opposed apertures. Located at the midpoint of the support member is a wick-retaining member that includes a tapered notch into which the upper end of the wick can be inserted for holding the wick in place throughout the wax pouring and hardening process. The candle container can be capped with the centering device left in place to trap the aromatic scents therein, and the purchaser can easily dispose of the candlewick-centering device after removal of the candle lid for lighting the jar candle.
