Love this jars for my rebrand. Still determining if it’s best to use 1 or 2 wicks for this!

I'm absolutely in love with these jars. I'm just starting my candle making venture and these jars will be my signature jars. They are so classy and elegant. I too am wondering about the use of wicks, wether to use one or two, I'm sure I will have to use 2. If you could get back to me about the wick question that would be great. Thank you.

8 oz. Apothecary Jar

I love the jars.. they’re light and clear. However I’m figuring out what is the best type and size of wick to use for an optimum burn. I use coconut soy wax because of the color. Can you suggest which type of wick to use and size? Should I be using 1 wick or 2 to achieve the optimum burn / wax pool? Thanks.

I haven't tried this jar yet, but it's really cute! I'm just starting to experiment with candle making and after the first couple of orders, I'm a very happy new customer!
