Question
I would like to know how to repair a cangle. The top of a wedding candle which i purchased abroad broke when i was taking it out of the package. Any help?

Answer
Hi Liz,
Geez, I wish I could be of more help to you on this matter. When it comes to candles and breakage, I normally would advise melting them down and doing a repour on it. But since sounds like a unique candle, I don't think that would work. One way to perhaps repair this candle would be using some type of super adhesive glue, whether it be  super glue, or gorilla glue. I don't know just a thought.  Another thought was taking some wax and melting a bit and trying to repair it that way. However with this method, I'm not positive how strong that bond would be. Again, just a thought.  

Sorry I couldn't be any more help.  Good luck!
