How to fix those drowning wicks and tunneling candles...

Hi new poster here, I've read these post for years and decided to take the plunge...I answered this in another post, but don't know how much traffic thats going to get and I know a lot of you are fed up w/this problem. While your candles are burning, absorb the wax out with cotton balls, the more u take out, the stronger your wick will get, then wrap the candle 1/2 down with alum foil and scrunch over the the top of the candle. The foil brings the heat to the outside of the candle, when u have sufficient melted wax, remove the foil and the candle will never do that again...I do this when I first light a candle and it works every time, I also think u get more "throw" with the fragrance cause your getting 100% of the wax burning...Good Luck Ladies, sure enjoy reading your posts !!!
