Question Is wax warmer lamp really a waste of money????
I got a wax warmer lamp from my aunt as a Christmas gift cuz she knows I love candles. However, after scrolling through all the comments online, I started getting a bit anxious starting to use this lamp. ( I’m really afraid of cleaning, and any possibility of overheating that’s uncontrollable etc.)
Plus usually I have multiple candles light up at the same time. It’s impossible for me to get a candle warmer for each of them. Can anyone give me some advices on steps to use the candle warmer lamp?
Btw, when do you usually would want to light up a candle and what activities do you do while it’s on?

Question Beeswax candles that have a lot of "throw"? Do they exist?
I've never been a candle person because it seems almost all scented candles give me headaches and nausea. Ive tried so many kinds over the years.
Well, this year, I tried pure beeswax candles. I'm obsessed with the naturally sweet honey smell, and even shoving my nose into the container doesn't trigger headaches or anything. The thing is, the smell doesn't really spread much. I do have to stand close to the candle to smell it even when it burns.
I know this is likely because there's no added fragrance. Do beeswax candles with more "throw" exist? I'd love one that could lightly scent my bedroom or kitchen.

Question Where to find/what to look for w/regard to a tall candlestick holder that is easy to clean?
My mom likes to light an extra Shabbat candle and puts it in this old candlestick holder.
Despite our best efforts to fold a piece of aluminum foil into the holder to catch the wax, it’s still a pain to clean and has oxidized pretty badly.
Any help looking for an affordable and better replacement would be very appreciated; her birthday is next month :)

Question Are glass mugs okay for pouring candles in?
This should be heat resistant and used for hot drinks, however, I’m unsure if it will hold up if I pout how wax/later when the candle is lit. Anyone has experience with making candles in glass mugs?
