        Material is braided so it burns in one direction
  - - - Cotton wicks are braided and treated with chemicals so that they bend at a 90 degree angle when burning.
      - Angle causes the wick to shorten naturally
      - If wick isn't treated, it can burn too quickly and go out or burn to slowly, which can be dangerous.
    - - Wax is melted into a clear, near-liquid state in huge metal kettles.
      - Wax is carefully filtered to remove impurities.
      - Desired scents and dyes are now added.
    - - Continuous molding machines are used, ranging from 50-500 per load.
      - Wick is pulled through tip of the mold.
      - Wax is cooled slightly above melting point and poured into molding table above mold.
      - After wax is poured, cold water is poured around mold to speed up the cooling process.
      - Once solid, the candle is pulled out and the wick is snipped.
      - The process is begins again to get the desired candle shape, the excess wax is re-used.
    - - Candle's are sent to an automated packaging machine
