When deciding whether your glass can host a candle or not, you need to keep in mind that it needs to be heat and crack resistant and isn’t porous.while there is a popularity behind using glass vessels for candle making, people often forget that there are risks and safety hazards that can come along with using glass for your candles.
When selecting a container, you need to keep in mind that the vessel needs to be thick enough so that it won’t crack or completely shatter when you pour the molten wax into it. You also have to make sure that the glass isn’t porous, too. While the first two requirements may seem self explanatory, finding a glass that isn’t porous may be a bit more confusing.
The term porous doesn’t mean what most people believe that it does. Most people because that being porous means that water is going to leak through the glass, which isn’t true. Instead, it means that there are small pores within the glass that can allow air or liquid to get into it, making it permeable.
Most glass isn’t going to be porous. There are ways to tell it may be porous, though, even if there’s no visible pores. One of the more obvious ways to know if a glass is porous is if it’s etched. The less obvious way to know if it’s porous is if the glass has been cleaned with an alkaline chemical.
We can now decide which vessels aren’t suitable for candle making and should be avoided
Vases
Vases aren’t great for candle making because they’re not built to be exposed to the heat of melted wax and a flame. While you probably could make a candle using a vase vessel, it’s not a vessel I would recommend to use. It’s better to find a different vessel than worry about your vase cracking or shattering under the heat of the melted wax.
Vessel that can Tip Easily
While this seems like common knowledge and doesn’t pertain exclusively to a glass’s structural integrity, it definitely needs to be addressed. If you’re going to use a glass vessel, you want it to have a flat bottom but you also don’t want it to be an awkward shape that’s going to tip easily if it’s bumped into.
Inflammable container
You should also stay away from vessels that may be flammable because it’s going to be exposed to heat when you pour the wax and it will also be exposed to fire when you light the candle.
