Wick trimmers are a must-have accessory for every candle owner. Keeping your candle wicks the proper height is essential to prevent soot buildup and ensure a superior burn quality and smell. We recommend trimming your wick to about 1/4 inch before every use. Our wick scissors are made of durable stainless steel with a stylish matte black finish. The long handle makes these clippers easy to use with almost any size candle jar. You can use them to trim wood wicks or cotton ones, too.
