First-World Problems...
Why yes, that is a homemade candle. I like scented candles, especially when I make strong-smelling foods and my woefully inadequate exhaust fan fails miserably at IT'S ONE JOB! The commercial candles mostly suck, so...
We go through a fair number of wine glasses, so I take the most beat up ones and make candles. It's fun, I get to choose the scent...no disgusting, stinky, pungent aromas...and because I am a cheap bastard it satisfies my parsimony.
But the wicks available for homemade candle making stink. Not literally, but they burn inconsistently, so sometimes the wick extends too far above the wax and it smokes and does other irritating things. Or it burns too quickly and it is just the barest little snippet with a tiny flame.
THE STRUGGLE IS REAL!
