Yeah, not enough light was my impression. I'm not going to invest in more
candles. Going to oil lamps, and propane instead.

Utter crap; not enough light, don't last long, and the wick gets funky
halfway through.

I'm surprised you don't aren't making your own out of beeswax; it's
extremely simple, and the beeswax candles don't put out carcinogenics
and CO like the paraffin candles.

You basically need two non-consumable things for votives:

The mold:

The wick thingies:

Then you get a bag of the wick holders:

Complete your kit with some wick:

and beeswax: (I'll bet you have a local source for beeswax), I'm sure
you already know about melting the wax with a double boiler (I use a big
soup can in an old pot).

Once you make a batch, you'll never be out of candles, or quick gifts
for Christmas/Birthdays. As a side benefit, chicks really dig a man who
makes candles - seriously. ;-
