chuck_35550 Posted February 27, 2013 Share Posted February 27, 2013 (edited) Has anyone bought a candle using the ribbon wick? It looks like some kind of metal screen that has metal anchors on the bottom and I think they are made by Wood Wick? They come in intersting containers and have great ct and are just one more reason that I've decided to close my business and move on to something else.Steve Edited February 27, 2013 by chuck_35550 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ladysj Posted February 27, 2013 Share Posted February 27, 2013 (edited) I've not seen these do you have a link for the candles? Oh I found them & have seen them. I've not tried any of them though. I finally broke down & bought a Yankee Candle and it didn't show me a lot for their prices. Mine are far better as far as hot throw.

candlelady Posted February 27, 2013 Share Posted February 27, 2013 (edited) Yes, I have just about burned it all and I am surprised that it is burning so well. All the wax burns nicely. The wick very interesting in deed, I too see a metal screen type design. Very little smoke when you blow it out too. Yes, it is made by Wood Wick and they are becoming very popular. I almost bought another one. Competition is fierce - glad I sold my company 2 years ago. Edited February 27, 2013 by candlelady 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chuck_35550 Posted February 27, 2013 Author Share Posted February 27, 2013 That does look amazing. How about the ht? The choices are very upscale for this candle and it looks great without evern lighting the thing. I notice that Febreze is putting out a large container candle now. Does it never end? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Does it never end?Febreeze candles were very, very strong when they first came out, but a couple of years ago I noticed they're only half as strong, and about 1/4 less full. I haven't seen the new large ones yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
candlelady Posted February 27, 2013 Share Posted February 27, 2013 The HT on the ribbon wick candle (Vanilla Sugar) is great IMO. I have a very large kitchen/dining/living area and it fills it up.I read on an Amazon review that someone had burned the candle down to the very end and the container exploded. I'm not onethat burn candles that way, but I do know alot of people that do. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CareBear Posted April 7, 2014 Share Posted April 7, 2014 I have one of the candles and it's really nifty. I've not gotten down to the bottom but mine is a fairly shallow dish - I don't anticipate any explosions. Has anyone seen the wicks themselves for sale anywhere?

Those are cool looking candles, I've been thinking about buying one. You are on the nose, the candle industry competition is fierce. There's a lot of creative people and companies out there. Now that's just talking about the looks of the products alone, as we know, some products look better than they perform. Nowadays, sellers really have to fill a buyers need, have great branding, something different to offer, lots of advertising and a great product to back it up. It is a lot of work and expense.

Laura C Posted February 7, 2019 Share Posted February 7, 2019 I found the Ribbonwick and HearthWick candles for sale but I can't find any of the wicks for sale, don't think you can. Yankee Candle sells them too and somehow they are connected to the WoodWick Company, maybe Yankee bought them out. They are beautiful candles, I really like them. https://www.woodwick-candles.com/hearthwick.html https://www.woodwick-candles.com/woodwick/ribbonwick.html https://www.amazon.com/RibbonWick/b/ref=bl_dp_s_web_7636821011?ie=UTF8&node=7636821011&field-lbr_brands_browse-bin=RibbonWick https://www.yankeecandle.com/browse/candles/ribbonwick-candles/_/N-bc8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From what I've learned, Woodwick is actually owned by Virginia Candle Company. But in any case, these seem to be hard to find. In the other blog I commented on (you are on that one and replied to my comment also), it looks as though a year ago someone was able to find these wicks at northstarcandlesuppy.com , however, that website doesn't seem to be functional anymore. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LOL, you are right, there are two similar posts talking about these wicks. I didn't realize I was bouncing back and forth between two posts. One post is titled "Ribbon Wick" and the other one is titled "Ribbon Wicks" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Somwhere in Cali Posted January 21, 2020 Share Posted January 21, 2020 I think I solved the mystery I hope it helps it looks like ribbon wicks turned sideways and put on multiple tabs and then placed in a wave position with tab stickers. Maybe you can call the vendor and ask to widen the ribbon wicks. https://www.cierracandles.com/Ribbon-prewaxed-wicks.html https://www.northwoodcandlesupply.com/products/ribbon-wick-candle-wick?utm_medium=cpc&utm_source=google&utm_campaign=Google Shopping&gclid=Cj0KCQiAvJXxBRCeARIsAMSkApqo3KlM_Bu4BYf2sSUJRQl49Jpn2wKCYi63rdACwkstkdGAWLLkx9YaApFhEALw_wcB Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
