- Long ago they used be making candles - they used to melt the fat. When the fat would be melted they would get two or three bits of sticks and put the wick around the sticks. Then they would let the sticks drop into the fat and it would harden around them. They would have a little loop on the twine and the sticks would pull out of it.
